Hardware
Transporting servers
Servers are heavy, valuable and contain storage media. For transport, your service provider removes them from the rack and packs them. We take them over and bring them to their destination – data centre, remarketer or warehouse, individually or in volume. For a single, particularly high-value system with direct transport, Logisticoo Signature is the right service.
What matters
- Handed over removed
- You hand over the servers removed and packed – then we plan collection and handover without waiting time.
- Weight
- Multi-unit rack servers are heavy; cartons with servers must not be stacked arbitrarily.
- Storage media
- Hard drives remain your responsibility. Whether they are removed, erased or sealed is your decision.
- Rails and accessories
- Rack rails and cables travel better packed separately.
Planning questions
We clarify these points before quoting – the earlier they are known, the more precise the plan.
- How many servers, which form factors?
- Have they been removed from the rack and packed?
- Do storage media stay in the devices?
- Where are the servers going?
- Are there access rules at the collection point?
What we need from you
- Number, form factor and rough weights
- Packing condition
- Handling of storage media
- Access rules

Questions and answers: Servers
Who removes the servers from the racks?
Your IT service provider handles removal, disconnection and packing. We collect the handed-over servers and deliver them safely.
What happens to the hard drives in the servers?
They remain your responsibility. Whether they are removed, erased or transported separately is your decision.
Is there direct transport for a single, valuable server?
That is what Logisticoo Signature is for – with direct transport and documented handover by agreement.
