Distribution Transformers Buyers
Pole-mount, pad-mount and single-phase distribution units, including bulk lots. We pay upfront and cover the freight, rigging and teardown ourselves.
Distribution transformers are the workhorse units at the end of the line: pole-mount cans, single-phase padmounts, and small three-phase units serving individual buildings. Individually they are modest; in quantity they add up quickly, and bulk lots are exactly what we like to buy.
You are paid before the transformer leaves your property. No consignment, no waiting on a resale.
We do not ask you to test, repair or clean anything. We evaluate the unit ourselves.
We cover the freight and the rigging. Lowboys, cribbing, permits and escorts are our cost.
Disconnection, dismantling and removal are handled by our crews at our expense.
What we look for in distribution transformers
If you are a utility contractor, a co-op or a municipal utility with a laydown yard full of change-outs, we will quote the whole yard as one lot and take everything in a single move. Mixed kVA ratings and mixed manufacturers are fine.
Single-phase pole-mounts from 5 kVA to 167 kVA and single-phase padmounts through 500 kVA are all in scope, along with the three-phase padmounts that serve small commercial services.
| kVA range we buy | 5 kVA through 500 kVA |
|---|---|
| Mounting | Pole-mount, pad-mount, vault, direct-buried |
| Phase | Single-phase and three-phase |
| Bulk lots | Preferred. Whole laydown yards quoted as one lot. |
| Mixed lots | Mixed kVA and mixed manufacturers accepted |
| Change-out programs | Ongoing pickup arrangements available |

Distribution Transformers: common questions
Straight answers
Do you buy distribution transformers in any condition?
Yes. Mixed kVA and mixed manufacturers accepted We do not require testing, cleaning or repairs.
How do you decide what to offer?
Rating, voltages, manufacturer, winding material, fluid type and overall condition, weighed against what that specific combination is worth on the resale market right now.
Who handles removal?
We do, at our cost. That includes disconnection coordination, teardown, rigging, cribbing, permits and freight.
How fast can you pick up?
Usually within a week or two of agreeing on a price, and faster if you have a hard deadline like a demolition date or a lease expiration.
