Why Sellers Choose Us
What a Waverly 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 Waverly
Every class is in scope, from branch panelboards to metal-clad medium voltage lineups
The Waverly Market
When a Waverly facility replaces a switchgear lineup, the old gear usually becomes somebody's storage problem. We turn it back into cash instead. We run the Corn Belt lanes weekly, which is why Waverly, IA rarely waits long for a truck. There is no consignment and no waiting to see what it sells for. We buy the equipment outright and assume responsibility for the logistics.
Every class of distribution equipment is in scope. What we see most often in Waverly is MCC sections with VFD buckets still installed and 3000A drawout switchgear pulled during a service upgrade. Across Iowa we also buy pad-mounted outdoor lineups from a plant yard, 600A and 800A distribution boards from mechanical rooms and 1200A 480V switchboards out of a retail service.
Who We Buy From
Our sellers here are typically solar and wind EPC firms with leftover equipment, demolition crews stripping a site, cold storage and food processing plants. We also buy from general contractors on an adaptive-reuse project and data center operators replacing distribution capacity.
The triggers we hear most often are straightforward:
- A tenant vacated and the existing service is oversized for the next occupant.
- Service capacity was upsized, leaving the previous gear as an unneeded spare.
- The building changed hands and the electrical equipment transferred with the property.
- An arc flash study recommended replacing gear that was past its maintainable life.
Pickup and Freight in Waverly
Because we haul our own freight out of Des Moines, we do not have to shave the offer to cover a third-party carrier. Sections that will not fit through the door get separated on site and carried out piece by piece.
The gear is valued on its own merits. The cost of getting it out of Waverly 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 Waverly 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.

Selling Switchgear in Waverly: Common Questions
Straight answers
Do you actually come to Waverly to pick up switchgear?
Yes. Because we haul our own freight out of Des Moines, we do not have to shave the offer to cover a third-party carrier. 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 Waverly, 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.
