North Decatur, GA Transformer Buyers
We are transformer buyers, not brokers. Units leaving North Decatur get bought with our own money and hauled on our own freight. This is a Georgia pickup for us, staged out of Atlanta and covered end to end.
Payment is upfront. You do not front the freight, you do not pay a rigger, and you do not need to have the unit tested before we commit to a price.
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 pulp, paper and lumber mills, electrical supply houses moving old inventory, property owners who inherited units with a building, plant maintenance managers after a voltage upgrade and school and municipal facilities departments.
- Often because a spare was bought years ago and never installed.
- Often because a lease is ending and the yard has to be cleared.
- Often because capacity was upsized and the previous unit is now spare.
- Often because the tenant left and the service was oversized for the next one.
Getting a truck into North Decatur
North Decatur is an easy run for us off the Atlanta lane, which keeps our freight cost down and our offer up. If the unit is in a basement vault or up a ramp, tell us and we will bring the right rigging.
Distance is our problem, not yours. We quote the transformer on what it is worth, then absorb the cost of getting it out of North Decatur. 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 North Decatur 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.

North Decatur transformer selling questions
Straight answers
Do you actually come to North Decatur to pick up transformers?
Yes. North Decatur is an easy run for us off the Atlanta lane, which keeps our freight cost down and our offer up. 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 North Decatur, 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.
