Surplus and decommissioned transformers carry strong value in both the resale and copper/aluminum reclamation markets, and we handle pickup and rigging.

The Reno Surplus Market
The Reno and Sparks metropolitan area has transformed into a major technology, manufacturing, and logistics hub, driven by the massive Tahoe Reno Industrial Center. This sprawling complex houses hyperscale data centers, battery manufacturing plants, and vast distribution warehouses. As these facilities continuously upgrade their infrastructure to meet immense power demands, they frequently decommission high-capacity electrical components. Additionally, the region's legacy gaming resorts, mining operations, and expanding healthcare campuses regularly undergo renovations that generate surplus equipment. We actively purchase this retired gear, including heavy-duty switchgear, large transformers, motor control centers, and industrial circuit breakers, helping facility managers and electrical contractors across Northern Nevada efficiently liquidate their unused electrical assets.
We also buy transformers in nearby Sparks, NV, Carson City, NV, Fernley, NV, Truckee, CA and across the wider Reno, NV region.
