Find out how CHG-MERIDIAN enables the safe and efficient return of your IT equipment.
The flawless and complete return of your leased equipment is a central component of a successful and cooperative partnership. It forms the basis for calculating rental certificates and enables you to use IT equipment efficiently and cost-effectively. It also guarantees efficient and sustainable recycling of used IT.
When assessing the condition of the equipment, we focus on processes that are transparent for all parties involved. In order to evaluate the condition of your returned devices objectively and comprehensibly, we rely on a standardized grading system. This assigns each device – depending on signs of use and possible damage – to one of four categories:
