We buy switchgear in Berkley, MI and throughout Michigan. There is no obligation.
Why Sellers Choose Us
What a Berkley switchgear sale involves on your end
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.
Switchgear We Buy in Berkley
Every class is in scope, from branch panelboards to metal-clad medium voltage lineups
The Berkley Market
Berkley facilities call us when a lineup comes offline and the question becomes what to do with it. The answer is sell it. Michigan sellers get the same terms as anywhere else we operate: paid first, freight on us. We will work around your outage window, your plant schedule or your landlord's access hours. Pickup gets scheduled to suit you.
Every class of distribution equipment is in scope. What we see most often in Berkley is 3000A drawout switchgear pulled during a service upgrade and 4000A paralleling switchgear from a standby plant. Across Michigan we also buy 5kV magnetic air breaker sections on skids, plug-in busway runs with bus plugs attached and pad-mounted outdoor lineups from a plant yard.
Who We Buy From
Our sellers here are typically demolition crews stripping a site, industrial auctioneers with unsold lots, manufacturers consolidating two plants into one. We also buy from oil and gas service yards and plant maintenance managers after a service upgrade.
Most sales trace back to one of a few situations:
- An arc flash study recommended replacing gear that was past its maintainable life.
- The plant closed and remaining assets are being liquidated.
- A flood or storm replacement has arrived and the damaged gear needs to be removed.
- Service capacity was upsized, leaving the previous gear as an unneeded spare.
Pickup and Freight in Berkley
We stage flatbeds and lowboys near Detroit and dispatch into Berkley as loads fill. Roof-level and mezzanine gear is not a problem; we plan the pick before we quote.
The gear is valued on its own merits. The cost of getting it out of Berkley is absorbed on our side. Sellers who already hold a scrap quote often find the difference substantial, because a scrap figure deducts hauling and ignores what the breakers, buckets and bus are worth to somebody who needs them.

How the Sale Works
Four steps, none of which cost you anything
Send What You Have
A photograph of the nameplate and one wide shot down the front of the lineup is enough to begin. If the nameplate is gone, photograph the gear anyway and we will work from the construction, the bus and the breaker frames.
Receive a Firm Offer
We respond with a committed cash figure, usually the same day. It is an offer rather than an estimate, and it does not move afterward.
Schedule on Your Terms
Pickup in Berkley is arranged around your outage window, plant shutdown or building access hours. Where a utility disconnect has to happen first, we coordinate the timing.
We Pay, Then We Haul
Payment is completed before anything moves. Our crew performs the teardown, the section separation, the rigging and the loading, and our truck removes it.
Also Buying Across Michigan
We cover 208 locations in Michigan.
Selling Switchgear in Berkley: Common Questions
Straight answers
Do you actually come to Berkley to pick up switchgear?
Yes. We stage flatbeds and lowboys near Detroit and dispatch into Berkley as loads fill. We do not ask you to arrange freight, separate sections or deliver anything to us.
Do I need to have the gear tested first?
No. Testing is never a condition of our offer. We assess a lineup from photos, the nameplate and our own inspection at pickup.
What if the breakers have already been pulled out?
We still buy it. A complete lineup with its breakers installed is worth more, but empty structures have real value in bus and steel, and loose breakers sitting on a shelf are worth quoting on their own. Tell us what is still there and what has already gone.
When do I get paid?
Before anything leaves your property. Payment is not contingent on us reselling the equipment afterward.
Will you buy a single section in Berkley, or only full lineups?
Both. One switchboard section is worth a call, and if you have a full electrical room or several buildings coming down we will quote the entire lot as one purchase.
What if the lineup is still energized and in service?
That is normal. Tell us and we will coordinate the disconnection timing with your electrician or the utility, then handle the teardown and rigging ourselves.
