What we buy in Woodlawn

Every class of transformer is in scope. The units we see most often coming out of Woodlawn and the wider Maryland market include 300 kVA cast-coil units, 225 kVA three-phase pad-mounts, 150 kVA units from a municipal pump station, matched pairs of 750 kVA pad-mounts and 75 kVA pad-mount units off a retail pad.

Who sells to us here

Our sellers in this market are typically data center operators replacing capacity, commercial property managers doing a tenant retrofit, oil and gas service yards, electrical contractors clearing out a job trailer and school and municipal facilities departments.

Often because a lease is ending and the yard has to be cleared.
Often because a storm replacement arrived and the damaged unit needs to go.
Often because a spare was bought years ago and never installed.
Often because the site is being demolished and everything has to go.

Getting a truck into Woodlawn

Woodlawn is an easy run for us off the Baltimore 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 Woodlawn. 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.

Send the nameplate and a photo. Same-day number.

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 Woodlawn 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.

Woodlawn transformer selling questions

Straight answers

Do you actually come to Woodlawn to pick up transformers?

Yes. Woodlawn is an easy run for us off the Baltimore 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 Woodlawn, 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.
