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.

PCB paperwork

County
Fulton County at a glance
The AEP Ohio feeder map explains most of the nameplates in Fulton County: distribution primary, low-side service voltage, and a size that matches the building behind it. A short conversation at the start saves an argument at the gate, and the argument is the expensive part.
A partial assembly is bought on the assumption that something is missing, because it usually is. A short list of photographs covers the cabinet, the tag, the bushings and the access, and nothing else is needed at the start.
What the county holds
A gauge that reads ambient on a loaded transformer is a broken gauge, not a cold unit. A bushing replaced with the wrong length changes the clearance, which is a safety matter rather than a cosmetic one.
A generator step-up unit is designed around one generator, so its impedance is matched rather than generic. A nameplate answers six questions at once, which is why it is the first thing photographed.
Fulton County's equipment plants build for export, and their transformer loads run well above what the population would suggest.
Towns we cover inside Fulton County include Wauseon, and the buying loop reaches every one of them.
Logistics across Fulton County
Most Fulton County sites have a gate wide enough for a step deck, and the ones that do not get a smaller trailer. The last hundred feet decide the day, and they are the hundred feet nobody photographs.
A drive isolation transformer is specified by the drive manufacturer rather than by the plant, which is why the tag looks odd. A lowboy is the answer when the unit is heavy and the approach is long, and the answer is expensive either way.
What we look for
A transformer with its original documentation is easier to insure, easier to resell and easier to explain. A buyer who explains the reasoning gets a second call, and the second call is where the good units are.
The difference between a good and a bad purchase is usually information rather than luck. A relocation leaves behind exactly the units that were built into the building, which is why they become surplus.

Questions
What sellers ask before they call
Equipment types
Do you cover all of Fulton County?
With the tag and the access photographs, a working number becomes a firm number and the truck can be booked against it. We buy in Ohio and only in Ohio, which is why a truck can be at a Fulton County gate the same week the number is agreed. A unit that is documented is easier to move than one that is not, in every sense of the word.
Service area
What does the utility picture look like in Fulton County?
There is no fee to look, no commission on the number, and no deduction invented after the truck is loaded. Most of the transformers we pull out of Fulton County were fed from a AEP Ohio substation, and the tag says so in the primary column. A unit with elevated gas that has been stable for a decade is a different proposition from one where the figure doubled.
Payment
Can you reach a rural site in Fulton County?
There is no middle layer taking a spread: the desk that quotes is the desk that pays and the desk that sends the truck. Bridge limits, municipal weight restrictions and construction zones all shape the route, and the route shapes the schedule. Most of what a buyer needs to know is stamped on a plate the size of a postcard.
