Send a nameplate photo and receive a firm number, usually the same day. There is no obligation.

Or call 954-740-1983. Photos of the nameplate and the full lineup get you the fastest, firmest number — text or email them anytime.

01You Are Paid Before It Moves

Funds change hands before a single section leaves your property. There is no consignment and no waiting on a downstream resale.

02No Testing Is Required

You are never asked to test, energize, clean or repair the gear. Our team evaluates it from the nameplate photos and our own inspection.

03We Cover Freight and Rigging

Lowboys, flatbeds, cribbing, section separation and permits are billed to us. That cost is already priced into the offer you receive.

04Our Crews Handle Teardown

Disconnection coordination, dismantling, rigging out of the electrical room and loading are performed by our crews at our expense.

What we look for in circuit breakers

Circuit breakers are the most liquid item in this entire market. A single drawout air breaker in good condition has real standalone value, and a pallet of molded case breakers is worth quoting even if none of them have been tested. If your gear is already gone but the breakers are sitting on a shelf, call us.

We buy low voltage drawout breakers, insulated case breakers, molded case breakers from 15A frames up to 4000A frames, and medium voltage vacuum and magnetic air breakers. Reconditioned, as-removed and never-installed spares are all in scope, and never-installed spares carry the highest number.

Frame size, trip unit type and manufacturer determine value. Electronic trip units are generally worth more than thermal magnetic. Obsolete frames that are no longer manufactured can be surprisingly valuable, because the only source for a plant that needs one is the used market.

Circuit Breakers: common questions

Straight answers

Do you buy circuit breakers in any condition?

Yes. One breaker or a truckload of pallets We do not require testing, cleaning or repairs.

How do you decide what to offer?

Amperage, voltage class, manufacturer, bus material, breaker type and overall condition, weighed against what that specific combination is worth on the resale market right now.

Who handles removal?

We do, at our cost. That includes disconnection coordination, teardown, section separation, rigging, permits and freight.

How fast can you pick up?

Usually within a week or two of agreeing on a price, and faster if you have a hard deadline like a demolition date or a lease expiration.
