The process
How Selling a Transformer Works
Six steps. Nothing comes out of your pocket at any point, and you are paid before the unit leaves your property.
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.
1. Send photos
One nameplate shot and one wide shot of the unit in place. Text them, email them, or use the form on this page. If the nameplate is unreadable, send the wide shots anyway — construction and dimensions tell us a great deal.
2. We price it
Usually the same day. We are pricing against real resale demand for your specific rating and voltage pair, not against metal weight. You get one number, in writing, and we tell you whether your unit is resale-grade or scrap-grade.
3. You accept, nothing changes
The number is firm. No consignment, no waiting to see what it sells for, no contingency on our resale.
4. We plan the pick
Weight, access, headroom and route out. Tight yards, single dock doors, basement vaults, mezzanines and rooftops are all routine. If a utility disconnect has to come first we coordinate the timing with your electrician.
5. We pay you
Payment lands before the transformer moves. You are never in the position of having released the asset and waiting on funds.
6. We remove and haul it
Our crew, our rigging, our truck, our cost. Permits, escorts, cribbing and fluid handling included. If the pad has to stay intact we cut the anchors and lift.

Questions we get asked
Straight answers
What do you need from me to make an offer?
A photo of the nameplate and one wide shot showing where the unit sits. Anything else you know helps but is not required.
Is the offer firm, or does it change when the truck arrives?
Firm. We do not re-trade the price on arrival. The only thing that changes an agreed number is discovering the unit is materially different from what was represented.
When exactly do I get paid?
Before the transformer leaves your property.
What if I accept and then change my mind?
Tell us before the truck is dispatched and there is no issue and no cost to you.
Do you need the unit disconnected first?
Not to quote it. It must be safely de-energised and isolated before we remove it, and we coordinate that timing with you.
