Trade-In Your Used ADAS
and Diagnostic Equipment
Have a calibration system or scan tool that no longer earns its floor space? ADAS Depot buys used ADAS and diagnostic equipment outright, or applies its value as credit toward new gear. You get a firm number, ship it to our California warehouse, and get paid.
What We Buy
This is a fit for shops upgrading to a newer platform, consolidating after a merger, or clearing equipment from a service line they no longer run.
Brands we buy: Autel, Launch, Texa, Topdon, Bosch, ThinkCar, and Opus IVS, along with most other major calibration and diagnostic brands. Ask about anything you do not see listed.
How the Trade-In Program Works
- 01 Tell us what you have. Email the make, model, approximate age, and condition. Photos help, and so does software or subscription status if you have it, since an active license changes what a unit is worth.
- 02 We send you a number. You get a straight offer based on what the unit is selling for now and what it needs to reach our resale standard. No obligation to accept.
- 03 Ship it to Gilroy. Once you accept, you ship the equipment to our warehouse in Gilroy, CA. Inbound freight is the seller's responsibility. Larger systems and full calibration bundles take more handling, so pack them well and coordinate with us before they leave your dock.
- 04 Get paid within 30 days. We inspect the equipment on arrival. Once it passes, you choose credit toward new equipment or a check, issued within 30 days. If a unit does not pass inspection, we ship it back to you at our cost.
Who You're Selling To
ADAS Depot sells and supports the same calibration and diagnostic equipment we buy, so the person valuing your unit already knows the model and what it moves for.
A staffed warehouse with a street address
Your equipment ships to 8870 Forest St, Gilroy, CA, where our team receives and inspects it in house.
Your risk stops at inbound freight
If a unit fails inspection, we pay to ship it back. The most you can lose is the cost of sending it.
A phone that reaches the buyers
Call (925) 566-8545 and talk to the people who value and inspect the equipment, before or after you ship.
What We Look For
Equipment that sells fastest is complete, undamaged, and functional, with all cables, adapters, targets, and cases the system shipped with. Missing components and heavy wear pull the value down, which is why the condition you describe up front sets the number we can hold to after inspection.
If a subscription or software license transfers with the unit, tell us. It often adds to what we can pay.
