50 Companies That Provide Equipment To Work From Home
If a company hires someone to work from home, that employee needs to have the right equipment. There are only a few options for providing equipment to remote workers. It’s pretty straightforward.
- You can provide a stipend, or a fixed sum of money the employee can use toward home office equipment.
- Or, you can provide the actual equipment (send it to the employee’s house)
That’s about it.
Today, we’ve created a database of all the companies and all of their work-from-home jobs that provide equipment (and which tools they provide).
- Companies that provide equipment
- Companies that provide stipends
- How we define work-from-home equipment
- Amazon’s WFH equipment policy

Looking for a work-from-home job?
I always recommend Flexjobs.
FlexJobs is the leading job board for remote and flexible job listings. You’ll see many of these work-from-home/equipment provided companies on the list below hire on FlexJobs, too.

Companies That Provide Equipment Through Stipends
Some jobs don’t physically send the equipment (like the ones you see above), but they do send money so you can pick the equipment yourself.
We built that database of companies that provide stipends here. But below, you’ll see a sample of a few notable names that do it this way.

Our Definition For Work-From-Home Equipment
Work-from-home equipment includes any tool (required or optional) to fulfill labor from where you live (not a company office or location).
For this list, we did not include companies that only provide a computer. That list would be far too long. In this list, you’ll find the list of companies that go beyond the basic, required tool.

Do companies provide equipment to work from home?
There isn’t a federal (US) law that states employees need to provide certain types of equipment to work-from-home employees. Certain states do have laws about what needs to be reimbursed, though. In general, all serious companies hiring for full-time roles will provide at least a computer to new employees working from home. Most fully remote companies provide more equipment, too – headset, chair, desk, webcam, etc.
What kind of equipment do you get to work from home?
As an absolute minimum, you should receive a laptop computer to work from home. After that, the most common pieces of equipment provided would be an ethernet cable (for a good internet connection) and a headset (particularly for customer service and sales roles). Then, companies that go above and beyond will provide a desk, chair, keyboard, mouse, monitor, and webcam to complete the standard home office equipment package.
Which companies give you a computer to work from home?
Almost every legitimate company should provide a computer for you to work from home. There could be a few exceptions – 1) part-time or contract positions may not be provided a computer and 2) some small startups tight on cash might not send a computer if you already have one. Although there is no federal law stating that employers need to provide equipment to their work-from-home employees, most companies will provide a computer.

Why I Researched Companies That Provide Great WFH Equipment Before Buildremote, I ran a fully remote marketing agency. When I joined, the company (well, my friend… the founder) sent me a used Macbook that was lying around. After a year or two, we realized that people need high-quality equipment to work from home comfortably. After all, we weren’t paying for office space so we could invest in home office equipment. As a result, my home office equipment list is pretty well stocked with an ergonomic desk and chair and audio and video products to help on Zoom calls. It made me realized that some companies invest in their remote employees while others don’t. To me, it’s an indicator of how much companies believe in and invest in their remote workers. It should factor into your decision about who to work for remotely. |
