The Modesto Surplus Market
Modesto's industrial base is heavily anchored in food processing, agricultural manufacturing, and distribution. The Beard Industrial District, a massive complex served by the Modesto and Empire Traction Company short-line railroad, houses major food and beverage producers, including the world-renowned E. & J. Gallo Winery. As these sprawling processing plants, cold storage warehouses, and distribution centers upgrade their automation and power systems, they frequently decommission surplus electrical equipment. We purchase used circuit breakers, motor control centers, transformers, and switchgear from these facilities, as well as from the region's expanding healthcare sector and the commercial developments along the Highway 132 bypass corridor.
We also buy transformers in nearby Stockton, CA, Turlock, CA, Manteca, CA, Tracy, CA and across the wider Modesto, CA region.
