Transformer buyers in Mid-Hudson & Westchester
We buy electrical transformers from contractors, facility managers, utilities, developers and property owners throughout this region. Building electrical upgrades, industrial equipment changes and solar development create different kinds of surplus: an operating unit replaced during an upgrade, an unused transformer left after a design change, or a failed unit awaiting removal. We review one transformer or an entire yard of equipment.
In southern Westchester, we focus on the details that matter for commercial properties: dry-type units inside buildings, outdoor padmounts and customer-owned service transformers. Farther north and west, we also review substation equipment, larger industrial units and step-up transformers associated with community solar. The East Fishkill semiconductor campus is part of the region's industrial landscape; we do not claim an affiliation with that campus or its operators.
The region spans Con Edison, O&R and Central Hudson service territories. Before submitting equipment, confirm ownership: utility-owned transformers belong to the utility and are not for sale by a property owner. For customer-owned equipment, send the available nameplate and installation information.

Pickup coverage from Yonkers to Kingston and Sullivan County
We coordinate pickup throughout Westchester, Rockland, Orange, Dutchess, Ulster, Putnam and Sullivan counties. Our regional coverage includes city properties with tight loading access, suburban commercial sites and industrial yards farther up the Hudson Valley. We have no public storefront or drop-off yard in New York; we come to the seller.
Our city pages provide local information for sellers in Yonkers, White Plains, New Rochelle, Poughkeepsie and Newburgh. We also serve Beacon, Kingston, Middletown, Mount Vernon, Peekskill, Port Jervis and Rye, along with Greenburgh, Ramapo, Clarkstown and East Fishkill.
For a regional contractor managing equipment at several properties, identify each pickup address and which units are stored there. A single equipment list with separate photos for each transformer helps us distinguish locations, review the lot and plan loading. Include the contact who can arrange site access at each property, especially when equipment is held in a fenced yard or secured building.
What we buy in Mid-Hudson & Westchester
New surplus, used, decommissioned and failed units, from about 15 kVA to 20 MVA and up. One transformer or a whole yard.
Building, industrial and community solar transformers we buy
For Westchester building renovations and tenant changes, we review low- and medium-voltage dry-type transformers, including units removed from electrical rooms. Send the kVA rating, primary and secondary voltages, and photos showing the enclosure and connections. Tell us if the transformer is already disconnected or still part of an active installation.
We buy padmount transformers from commercial sites, industrial properties and community solar projects. New surplus units may still be in their crates, while used units may be on a concrete pad or stored after removal. We need to know the fluid type, condition and whether accessories shown in the photos are included.
For industrial upgrades and larger project changes, we review substation transformers, unit-substation equipment and solar step-up units. Our overall buying range is roughly 15 kVA through 20+ MVA. We also consider damaged or failed equipment, so describe faults, leaks, missing components and known operating problems directly. Include close-up photos of damage as well as a full view of the unit.
Details to send before we make a written offer
When you want to sell a transformer in Mid-Hudson & Westchester, start with readable nameplate photos and clear pictures of the complete unit. Photograph every nameplate if a lot contains several transformers; matching equipment by appearance alone can miss differences in voltage, rating or configuration. For crated equipment, include the crate labels and any available manufacturer documents.
We review these details:
- Manufacturer, model or serial number, kVA or MVA, and phase.
- Primary and secondary voltages, age and current condition.
- Fluid type and documented PCB status for liquid-filled units.
- Test reports, service records or failure information, if available.
- Pickup address, storage location and access restrictions.
- Whether your crew will load or you need loading coordinated.
If PCB status is unknown, say so rather than guessing from age or appearance. Fluid handling, PCB requirements and applicable NYC rules should be confirmed with the appropriate professionals and current agency guidance. We use the information you provide to evaluate the equipment and identify questions before agreeing on pickup.

Loading plans for I-87, I-84 and I-287 access
I-87, I-84 and I-287 are key corridors for regional pickup planning, but the final approach to your property matters just as much. We need to know about narrow entrances, overhead obstructions, steep drives, limited truck turnaround space and restricted loading hours. A few photos from the street entrance to the transformer can help us understand the route through the site.
We coordinate rigging, forklift or crane loading, and flatbed, step-deck or lowboy trucking as appropriate for the equipment. You can also load with your own crew if that is your preference. Use the nameplate or manufacturer documentation for weight and dimensions; do not size lifting equipment from the transformer's kVA rating alone.
An electrical-room removal in Yonkers calls for different access planning than a yard pickup near Middletown or Kingston. Tell us about door openings, stairs, loading docks and any adjacent switchgear or cables that limit access. Qualified personnel should handle electrical isolation and disconnection before loading. Our transformer loading and shipping guide explains the information to gather before scheduling removal.
From your equipment photos to pickup and payment
Call or text 951-403-5738, or submit photos and equipment details through our online offer form. Tell us where the transformer is located, why it is surplus and whether you are selling one unit or a larger lot. If you have a planned shutdown or property handover, include that date so we can discuss scheduling around it.
We review the type, rating, voltages, age, condition, fluid information and available test data, then provide a written offer. Once terms are agreed, we schedule pickup and confirm who will handle loading. Keep the agreed equipment accessible, and let us know if its condition or included components change before collection.
At pickup, we perform a quick inspection to confirm that the transformer matches the photos and description. Payment is by check, ACH or wire under the agreed terms. Our buying process explains these steps in more detail, including the information we need from the seller before coordinating transport.
Questions sellers ask about Mid-Hudson & Westchester
Who buys used transformers in Mid-Hudson and Westchester?
We buy used electrical transformers throughout Mid-Hudson and Westchester, including customer-owned units removed during building renovations, industrial upgrades and solar project changes. We also review new surplus, decommissioned, damaged and scrap units. Send nameplate photos, condition details and the pickup location so we can evaluate the equipment and provide a written offer.
Can I sell a transformer that is still installed in my building?
Yes, we can review an installed transformer using nameplate photos, equipment details and information about its location. Tell us whether it is energized and when removal is planned. Qualified personnel must handle electrical isolation and disconnection before loading. We also need access details, such as door openings, loading docks and nearby equipment that affects removal.
Do you buy surplus community solar transformers in the Hudson Valley?
We buy surplus padmount and step-up transformers associated with community solar projects, including unused units left after project changes and used units removed from service. Send the kVA or MVA rating, voltages, fluid type, condition and available test documents. For new-in-crate equipment, include crate-label photos and the nameplate information available in the paperwork.
Do I need to deliver my transformer to a New York drop-off yard?
No. We have no public storefront or drop-off yard in New York, and we coordinate pickup at the seller's location. We can arrange rigging and trucking, or your crew can load under the agreed plan. Send the equipment weight, dimensions and site-access details so we can plan the appropriate loading and transport.
