Kings Grant, NC: Sell Us Your Transformers
Transformers that came out of a Kings Grant plant, substation or building retrofit still carry real money. We buy them outright. We hold North Carolina inventory moving through Charlotte, so consolidating your Kings Grant unit onto an existing load is usually possible.
Our offers are cash offers. Nothing is contingent on us reselling the transformer first.
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 oil and gas service yards, utility contractors with surplus stock, school and municipal facilities departments, industrial auctioneers with unsold lots and electrical contractors clearing out a job trailer.
- Often because the utility took over the service and the customer-owned unit is idle.
- Often because the tenant left and the service was oversized for the next one.
- Often because a PCB concern made keeping the unit unattractive.
- Often because the plant closed and assets are being liquidated.
Getting a truck into Kings Grant
We stage flatbeds and lowboys near Charlotte and dispatch into Kings Grant as loads fill. We are used to sites where the only access is a single dock door.
Distance is our problem, not yours. We quote the transformer on what it is worth, then absorb the cost of getting it out of Kings Grant. 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 Kings Grant 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.

Kings Grant transformer selling questions
Straight answers
Do you actually come to Kings Grant to pick up transformers?
Yes. We stage flatbeds and lowboys near Charlotte and dispatch into Kings Grant as loads fill. 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 Kings Grant, 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.
