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.

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.
County
Henry County at a glance
Knowing which side of the meter a unit sits on decides who can actually sell it, and that is the first question we ask in Henry County. The unit is the easy part; the site, the access and the paperwork are where the time goes.
A unit that was replaced during an upgrade is almost always a better buy than one that failed on a Tuesday. A unit with a clean surround has usually been maintained by somebody who cared, and that shows in the oil.
What the county holds
A transformer with a high impedance is a deliberate design rather than a fault, and the tag explains it. A transformer is one of the few pieces of plant equipment that keeps a meaningful value after it has been disconnected.
A working unit replaced during an upgrade carries no fault history, which is the main reason it is worth more. A storm leaves a range that runs from cosmetic damage to a burnt core, and testing is what separates them.
Henry County is farm country with one municipal electric system and a handful of plants, so a 1,000 kVA unit there is a large event.
Towns we cover inside Henry County include Napoleon, and the buying loop reaches every one of them.
Logistics across Henry County
We schedule Henry County pickups around the plant's shift change, because a loaded trailer and a shift change do not mix. A deduction agreed before the lift is a negotiation, and a deduction after it is an argument.
The most common cause of a low offer is a missing nameplate, and the second most common is a missing access route. A rigging plan written on the back of an envelope is the reason some lifts take two attempts.
What we look for
A unit described honestly sells faster than one described optimistically, because the second one gets renegotiated. A substation unit is a project rather than a purchase, and it should be planned like one.
A seller who sends four photographs at the start usually gets a decision the same day. A substation-class unit sits between what a plant can maintain and what a utility would own, which is why it changes hands.

Questions
What sellers ask before they call
Equipment types
Do you cover all of Henry County?
A municipal seller needs an invoice and a W-9; a plant needs a wire against a bill of sale. We do both without drama. We know the Ohio permit routes, the scales and the bridge limits because that is the only ground we work. A transformer that is still connected belongs to the plant's electrician until it is isolated, and that is the first call.
Service area
What does the utility picture look like in Henry County?
The paperwork is between your company and ours, and it does not travel. Supply into Henry County comes off the Napoleon municipal system and AEP Ohio lines, so a unit being retired there is almost always a distribution-class primary with a 480 or 208-volt secondary. A mine-duty unit is designed to be dragged, and it looks it, which is not the same as being worn out.
Payment
Can you reach a rural site in Henry County?
A unit with no tag is not a dead end; it is a unit that needs a tape measure and a close look at the bushings. If a trailer cannot get within reach, the unit gets moved twice, and the second move is the expensive one. A unit with elevated gas that has been stable for a decade is a different proposition from one where the figure doubled.
