Who sells to us

  • Electrical contractors

    Leftovers from the last job, a van full of old breakers, the pallet in the back of the shop.

  • Demolition & job sites

    Tear-outs, remodels, panel swaps. We bring the container and take the electrical.

  • Warehouses & businesses

    Old inventory, dead stock, equipment from a move or a closeout.

  • Data centers & plants

    Decommissions and upgrades. Switchgear, transformers, cable, racks.

  • Individual sellers

    One breaker, one transformer, a box of parts from the garage. We buy those too.

Questions sellers ask

No. One breaker or a whole plant. If you have a single piece, send a photo and we'll give you a number. If you have a building full, we'll bring the container and the truck. Nobody gets turned away for having too little.

Nothing. We send our own trucks and containers and we cover the labor and the haul. There's no fee taken out of your payment for pickup. The number we quote is the number you get.

We drop one at your site at no charge, any size, and leave it as long as we're buying what goes in. Fill it with electrical, call us when it's full, we haul it and pay you the same day. No rental agreement.

Same day. Once we've looked the material over and agreed on the number, you're paid before the truck leaves: cash, bank wire, cashier's check, Zelle or ACH, whichever you prefer.
