Send a nameplate photo and receive a firm number, usually the same day. There is no obligation.
Funds change hands before a single section leaves your property. There is no consignment and no waiting on a downstream resale.
You are never asked to test, energize, clean or repair the gear. Our team evaluates it from the nameplate photos and our own inspection.
Lowboys, flatbeds, cribbing, section separation and permits are billed to us. That cost is already priced into the offer you receive.
Disconnection coordination, dismantling, rigging out of the electrical room and loading are performed by our crews at our expense.
What we do
We buy switchgear from the people who end up owning it by accident: electrical contractors clearing a jobsite, plant managers after a service upgrade, property owners who inherited an electrical room with a building, demolition crews stripping a site, and liquidators with unsold lots. In almost every case the gear has been sitting long enough to become an annoyance.
Our position in that transaction is simple. We pay you upfront, before anything moves. We do not ask you to test the gear, clean it, repair it, or drag sections out to a loading dock. Teardown, section separation, rigging, permits and freight are our cost and our responsibility.
Why we stay narrow
Because pricing used switchgear well requires knowing what a specific amperage and voltage class is worth to somebody who needs it next month and cannot wait a year for new gear. That knowledge does not generalize. A dealer who buys every kind of surplus equipment has to price conservatively; a scrap yard prices by the pound because it has no resale channel at all.
Narrowing to one product family is what lets us commit to a firm cash number the same day and still absorb the freight. It also means we will tell you honestly when a lineup genuinely is scrap-grade, because we have no incentive to pretend otherwise.
How we work
- Our own money. No consignment, no brokering, no waiting on a resale.
- Our own freight, staged regionally so distance is our problem rather than a deduction from your price.
- Firm written offers that are not re-traded when the truck arrives.
- Payment before the gear leaves your property, every time.
- Honest classification between resale-grade and scrap-grade.
- Proper documentation, including a bill of sale on every purchase.

All 50 states and the District of Columbia, covering 7,518 cities and towns. We stage flatbeds and lowboys regionally and dispatch as loads fill, which is why a pickup in a small town is no more expensive to you than one in a major metro.
