We handle the freight
Talk to the buying desk
A phone number that reaches a buyer, a form that reaches the same desk, and no call centre in between.
What we buy
What we buy here
The fastest route to a number is the form on this page, because it arrives with the fields a buyer needs already filled in. The second fastest is the phone, which is answered by a person during working hours and by a machine after them.

Fast offers
A nameplate photo is usually enough to price a unit the same day.
Dedicated logistics
We arrange the crane, the permits and the flatbed, not you.
No broker fees
You are dealing with the buyer, so nothing is shaved off the offer.
How it works
Six steps from your yard to the money
- 01
Take pictures
The nameplate, the cabinet interior and the tank in daylight. Three photographs are usually enough to place a unit in the right class and the right price band.
- 02
Send them to us
The form on this page, a text or an email all reach the same desk. Include the city, the access and any deadline the site is working to.
- 03
Review the offer
A buyer reads the photographs, asks one or two questions and sends a written offer with the assumptions stated, so nothing changes on the day.
- 04
We schedule freight
Crane, flatbed and permits are booked around your access. You get a date and a window, and we carry the cost of getting it right.
- 05
Testing on arrival
Winding resistance, megger and turns ratio, plus oil analysis where the unit is liquid filled. The results decide the final number, and you see them.
- 06
Get paid
Payment is released on the agreed terms once the unit is received and tested, by check or ACH. No retention, no sixty-day terms.
What we handle for you
The parts sellers dread, done for you
Rigging
Crane and forklift arranged around your access, not the other way round.
Oil containment
Bunds, absorbent and disposal handled before the unit moves.
Bill of sale
A clean title document for your records, signed on collection.
PCB paperwork
Pre-1979 units get the testing and the manifest they need.
Contact
What to have ready
A photograph of the nameplate, a photograph of the cabinet and the address of the site. If the unit is indoors, a photograph of the door and the route out is worth more than a description of them. If the tag is missing, a tape measure across the tank and a count of the radiators will do.
If the tag is painted over or missing, photograph the bushings, the gauges and the tank; a buyer can usually read the size from those. A firm number needs three things: the tag, the condition and a route out of the building.
What happens to your message
It goes to the buying desk and nowhere else. We do not run a mailing list, we do not pass enquiries to other buyers, and we do not use your details for anything beyond the transaction you asked about. If the unit is not one we can buy, we say so and the file closes.
If the sale sits inside a confidential process, say so on the first call and the file is handled accordingly. The first pass costs nothing and takes ten minutes, because no site visit is needed to reach a working number, only to confirm it.
If the unit is urgent
A failed unit, a leaking tank or a site that has to be clear by Friday all go to the front of the queue. Call rather than email, describe the tag, and say what the deadline is. A buyer will tell you on the phone whether the date is achievable, which is more useful than a promise by email.

Questions
What sellers ask before they call
Equipment types
Do you charge for a site visit?
Every county in the state is covered, from the lake shore to the river, and Ohio sits inside the regular loop. There is no fee to look, no commission on the number, and no deduction invented after the truck is loaded. Remanufacturing keeps the footprint, and the footprint is often the reason the unit cannot simply be replaced.
Service area
Can I send photographs by text?
A receiver, a trustee or a plant manager can send a list without it becoming public information. With the tag and the access photographs, a working number becomes a firm number and the truck can be booked against it. The paperwork at the end is short, and it is the part that keeps everybody out of trouble.
Payment
How soon will I hear back?
There is no pressure to accept on the call; the number holds for a set period and you can test it against another buyer. Nothing sits in our queue for a week waiting for approval, because the buyer who quotes you also books the crew. An insurance salvage is bought on the adjuster's valuation rather than the seller's hope, which keeps the process honest.
Logistics
Do you buy outside Ohio?
You are paid when the unit leaves the pad, not thirty days after it arrives somewhere else. One desk, one state, one set of hauling relationships, which is why a Ohio pickup does not need a national carrier. Details that seem trivial on the phone become decisive on the pad, which is why they are asked about early.
