We buy switchgear in Hockinson, WA and throughout Washington. There is no obligation.
Why Sellers Choose Us
What a Hockinson 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 Hockinson
Every class is in scope, from branch panelboards to metal-clad medium voltage lineups
The Hockinson Market
Our buyers cover Hockinson and the rest of Washington. Send a nameplate photo and you will have a number back the same day. This is a Washington pickup for us, staged out of Seattle and covered end to end. You get one number, in writing, and we stand behind it. No re-trading of the price once the truck arrives.
Every class of distribution equipment is in scope. What we see most often in Hockinson is 2000A main-tie-main lineups from a light industrial park and unit substations with the primary and secondary attached. Across Washington we also buy 3000A drawout switchgear pulled during a service upgrade, 5kV magnetic air breaker sections on skids and MCC sections with VFD buckets still installed.
Who We Buy From
Our sellers here are typically hospital and campus engineering groups, cold storage and food processing plants, industrial auctioneers with unsold lots. We also buy from pulp, paper and lumber mills and utility contractors with surplus stock.
The reasons vary less than you would expect:
- Spare breakers were purchased years ago for a project that never proceeded.
- A tenant vacated and the existing service is oversized for the next occupant.
- A ground lease is ending and the yard has to be returned empty.
- An arc flash study recommended replacing gear that was past its maintainable life.
Pickup and Freight in Hockinson
Hockinson is an easy run for us off the Seattle lane, which keeps our freight cost down and our offer up. We can work inside an active facility without shutting your operation down.
The gear is valued on its own merits. The cost of getting it out of Hockinson 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 Hockinson 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 Washington
We cover 222 locations in Washington.
Selling Switchgear in Hockinson: Common Questions
Straight answers
Do you actually come to Hockinson to pick up switchgear?
Yes. Hockinson is an easy run for us off the Seattle lane, which keeps our freight cost down and our offer up. 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 Hockinson, 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.
