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

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
Hocking 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 Hocking County. A seller who has the serial number to hand moves through the first call in half the time.
A seller should ask what happens to the unit after it leaves, because the answer says what kind of buyer they are dealing with. A county with a rail siding is easier to work than one without, because rail takes what road cannot.
What the county holds
A unit with a crushed radiator bank has lost capacity that the tag still claims. A mechanical room built around a transformer will have to be opened, and the wall usually goes back afterwards.
Bushings fail far more often than windings, and they are far cheaper to replace. A Scott-T connection survives in a handful of legacy two-phase areas and is effectively a custom build.
Hocking County's terrain makes a crane setup harder than the unit itself, and the industrial base there is small and old.
Towns we cover inside Hocking County include Logan, and the buying loop reaches every one of them.
Logistics across Hocking County
Downtown Hocking County is harder than the industrial edge, and a unit in a basement there is a rigging project rather than a haul. Dry-types in basements are a rigging problem before they are an electrical one, and the door is the constraint.
A site with a loading dock and a level apron is a morning's work, and the same unit behind a fence is a day. A crew that has worked the county before knows which road floods and which bridge is closed for repair.
What we look for
The unit will outlast the building it serves, which is why so many of them change hands. A transformer with its original documentation is easier to insure, easier to resell and easier to explain.
A decision made on a photograph is reversible; a decision made after the truck arrives is not. A seller who sends four photographs at the start usually gets a decision the same day.
What a unit in Hocking County is worth
Surplus equipment around Hocking County arrives in waves tied to plant closures and utility projects rather than to the economy in general. Condition grading exists so that two people can discuss a number without arguing about adjectives.

Questions
What sellers ask before they call
Equipment types
Do you cover all of Hocking County?
We know the Ohio permit routes, the scales and the bridge limits because that is the only ground we work. If a unit sits just over a state line, the honest answer is that somebody closer should buy it. A buyer who has seen the site will always beat a buyer who has only seen a form, which is why the visit is free.
Service area
What does the utility picture look like in Hocking County?
Sellers inside a closure or a bankruptcy need discretion as much as speed, and both are available here. A AEP Ohio upgrade in Hocking County is one of the most common reasons a perfectly serviceable transformer ends up surplus. A buyer who cannot say where the unit will go is a broker, and brokers add a day and a deduction.
Payment
Can you reach a rural site in Hocking County?
If the building changes hands at the end of the month, say so at the start and the schedule gets built backwards from that date. 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.
