How it works

Six steps from your yard to the money

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

County

Wayne 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 Wayne County. A rural site is often easier than an urban one, because there is room for a crane.

A transformer is heavy, oily, regulated and awkward, and every part of the process reflects that. A purchase that finishes in a week is normal, and one that finishes in a day is a favour returned.

What the county holds

Harmonics put current on the neutral and heat in the core, and a standard unit dislikes both. A cast resin unit tolerates damp air that would destroy a ventilated dry-type, which is why water plants use them.

A phase shifter without its control system is a very expensive fixed reactor. A nameplate answers six questions at once, which is why it is the first thing photographed.

Wayne County's rubber and food plants are long established, and the transformers behind them are older than the equipment they now feed.

Towns we cover inside Wayne County include Wooster, and the buying loop reaches every one of them.

Logistics across Wayne County

The tight spots in Wayne County are the older plant sites, where the pad was poured before anybody thought about a forty-foot trailer. A trailer needs somewhere to stand, and the place it stands is rarely the place the site had in mind.

A lift that starts level ends level, and a lift that starts crooked rarely does. The concentration matters as much as the presence, which is why a single number on a test sheet decides the route.

What we look for

A transformer with its original documentation is easier to insure, easier to resell and easier to explain. A short conversation at the start saves an argument at the gate, and the argument is the expensive part.

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 transformer is a boring asset until the day it fails, and then it is the only thing anyone discusses.

Questions

What sellers ask before they call

Equipment types

Do you cover all of Wayne County?

Demolition schedules, lease expirations and closing dates all work the same way here: give us the date and we work to it. We know the Ohio permit routes, the scales and the bridge limits because that is the only ground we work. A buyer who arrives unprepared wastes the site's morning, which is remembered long after the unit is gone.

Service area

What does the utility picture look like in Wayne County?

You send a photograph of the nameplate, a buyer reads it, and you get a number with the conditions attached instead of a range that means nothing. If the unit sits behind a AEP Ohio meter, the utility owns the transformer on the pole and the customer owns what is inside the fence. A buying desk earns its keep by answering quickly, because a seller with a unit in the way is not looking for a relationship.

Payment

Can you reach a rural site in Wayne County?

Funds can clear before the crane hooks on if that is the arrangement you want, and we will put it in writing. The permit names the route, the axle load and the dates, and the driver follows it, because that is not a detail to improvise. A transformer that is still bolted down belongs to the building until somebody unbolts it, and that is a decision.
