Anthony, NM · the Southwest
Anthony Transformer Buyers, Freight Covered — New Mexico
We have been buying transformers out of the Southwest for years, and Anthony is well inside the lanes our trucks already run. Our the Southwest buyers handle Anthony and everything around it in NM.
You get one number, in writing, and we stand behind it. No re-trading the price after the truck shows up.
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.

Who sells to us here
Our sellers in this market are typically manufacturers consolidating two plants into one, water and wastewater treatment authorities, solar and wind EPC firms with leftover units, hospital and campus engineering groups and general contractors on an adaptive-reuse project.
- Often because the plant closed and assets are being liquidated.
- Often because the utility took over the service and the customer-owned unit is idle.
- Often because a voltage conversion left the old unit stranded.
- Often because an insurance inspection flagged an oil-filled unit indoors.
Getting a truck into Anthony
Distance from Albuquerque does not change what we pay. It changes our margin, not your number. We can work inside an active facility without shutting your operation down.
Distance is our problem, not yours. We quote the transformer on what it is worth, then absorb the cost of getting it out of Anthony. Sellers who have been quoted by scrap dealers are usually surprised by the difference, because a scrap price has the hauling cost taken out of it and ignores resale value entirely.

How the sale works
Four steps, no cost to you
1. Send what you have
A photo of the nameplate and one wide shot of the unit is enough to start. If the nameplate is unreadable, photograph the unit anyway and we will work from dimensions and construction.
2. Get a number
We come back with a firm offer, usually the same day. It is a cash offer, not an estimate that changes later.
3. We schedule around you
Pickup in Anthony gets scheduled to fit your outage window, plant shutdown or building access hours. If a utility disconnect is required first, we coordinate the timing.
4. We pay, then we haul
You are paid before the unit moves. Our crew handles teardown, rigging and loading, and our truck takes it away.

Anthony transformer selling questions
Straight answers
Do you actually come to Anthony to pick up transformers?
Yes. Distance from Albuquerque does not change what we pay. It changes our margin, not your number. We do not ask you to arrange freight or deliver anything to us.
Do I need to have the transformer tested first?
No. Testing is never a condition of our offer. We assess the unit from photos, the nameplate and our own inspection at pickup.
What if the transformer is oil-filled or might contain PCBs?
We buy it either way. If the nameplate does not confirm non-PCB status we treat the unit as presumed-contaminated and price the correct disposal path into the offer. You are told plainly which category your unit is in.
When do I get paid?
Before the transformer leaves your property. Payment is not contingent on us reselling it.
Will you buy a single transformer in Anthony, or only large lots?
Both. One unit is worth a call, and if you have a yard full of change-outs we will quote the entire lot as one purchase.
What if the unit is still energized and connected?
That is normal. Tell us and we will coordinate the disconnection with your electrician or the utility, then handle teardown and rigging ourselves.
