We do not ask you to test, repair or clean anything. We evaluate the unit ourselves.

Who sells to us here
Our sellers in this market are typically demolition crews stripping a site, cold storage and food processing plants, electrical contractors clearing out a job trailer, pulp, paper and lumber mills and industrial auctioneers with unsold lots.
- Often because the building changed hands and the transformer came with it.
- Often because the site is being demolished and everything has to go.
- Often because a PCB concern made keeping the unit unattractive.
- Often because a lease is ending and the yard has to be cleared.
Getting a truck into West New York
Getting a lowboy into West New York is routine for us. Tight yards, alley access and indoor vault pulls included. If the pad has to stay intact, we can cut and lift without tearing it up.
Distance is our problem, not yours. We quote the transformer on what it is worth, then absorb the cost of getting it out of West New York. 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 West New York 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.

West New York transformer selling questions
Straight answers
Do you actually come to West New York to pick up transformers?
Yes. Getting a lowboy into West New York is routine for us. Tight yards, alley access and indoor vault pulls included. 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 West New York, 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.
