We purchase dry-type and liquid-filled transformers across a wide kVA range. Surplus and decommissioned transformers carry strong value in both the resale and copper/aluminum reclamation markets, and we handle pickup and rigging.

The Pittsburgh Surplus Market
Pittsburgh's economy has evolved from its historic steel roots into a diverse hub for advanced manufacturing, healthcare, robotics, and energy production. Facilities across the Monongahela River Valley and the Parkway West corridor frequently upgrade their infrastructure, generating a steady supply of surplus electrical equipment. Major hospital networks, research universities, and Marcellus Shale natural gas operations regularly decommission heavy-duty transformers, switchgear, and motor control centers during facility modernizations or expansions. Additionally, legacy industrial sites undergoing redevelopment often liquidate obsolete circuit breakers, bus plugs, and safety switches. This continuous cycle of commercial renovation and industrial transformation throughout the Pittsburgh metropolitan area creates consistent opportunities to recover and recycle high-quality electrical components.
We also buy transformers in nearby Cranberry Township, PA, Monroeville, PA, Washington, PA, Greensburg, PA and across the wider Pittsburgh, PA region.
