Why Sellers Choose Us

What a Yonkers switchgear sale involves on your end

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.

The Yonkers Market

Our buyers cover Yonkers and the rest of New York. Send a nameplate photo and you will have a number back the same day. This is a New York pickup for us, staged out of Syracuse and covered end to end. Payment is upfront. You do not front the freight, you do not pay a rigger, and you do not need to have the gear tested before we commit to a price.

Every class of distribution equipment is in scope. What we see most often in Yonkers is 600A and 800A distribution boards from mechanical rooms and motor control centers with full starter buckets. Across New York we also buy 4000A paralleling switchgear from a standby plant, 1200A 480V switchboards out of a retail service and unit substations with the primary and secondary attached.

Who We Buy From

Our sellers here are typically utility contractors with surplus stock, property owners who inherited gear with a building, demolition crews stripping a site. We also buy from cold storage and food processing plants and solar and wind EPC firms with leftover equipment.

The reasons vary less than you would expect:

  • Spare breakers were purchased years ago for a project that never proceeded.
  • The building changed hands and the electrical equipment transferred with the property.
  • A cancelled or downsized build left new gear crated and never installed.
  • An arc flash study recommended replacing gear that was past its maintainable life.

Pickup and Freight in Yonkers

Yonkers is an easy run for us off the Syracuse lane, which keeps our freight cost down and our offer up. 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 Yonkers 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

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. Schedule on Your Terms

    Pickup in Yonkers is arranged around your outage window, plant shutdown or building access hours. Where a utility disconnect has to happen first, we coordinate the timing.

  4. 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 Yonkers: Common Questions

Straight answers

Do you actually come to Yonkers to pick up switchgear?

Yes. Yonkers is an easy run for us off the Syracuse 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 Yonkers, 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.
