Industrial Electrical Equipment buyers serving Columbus
We treat Indiana as a single service area instead of a list of towns. That is why a single item in Columbus is still worth quoting — it gets added to an existing run between Indianapolis, Fort Wayne and Evansville rather than priced as a dedicated trip.
Documentation travels with the job: a certificate of insurance naming your entity, a W-9, a signed purchase agreement itemizing each asset and its price, oil or PCB manifests where applicable, and weight tickets or a bill of lading for what leaves the Columbus site.

What we take out of Columbus sites
Distribution and control equipment
Low- and medium-voltage switchgear and switchboards, motor control centers, panelboards, bus duct with its plugs, transfer switches, capacitor banks and the breakers that live inside all of it. This is the bulk of what moves through our yard, and it is where obsolete models are frequently worth more than current production because nobody else can supply them.
Power conversion and generation
Liquid-filled and dry-type transformers from 75 kVA to 50 MVA, unit substations, rectifier and furnace transformers, and diesel and gas gensets from 100 kW to 3 MW with or without their paralleling gear and transfer switches. Running or not — we price a seized engine on its alternator and core just as seriously as a low-hour set.
Indiana specifics
Steel mills in the Calumet region and automotive plants across central Indiana run some of the heaviest MV switchgear and furnace transformer installations in the country.

Columbus questions
Do you provide documentation for surplus property or audit records?
Yes. Itemized purchase agreements, weight tickets, bills of lading, oil disposal manifests and recycling documentation are standard on Columbus purchases. Public agencies and audited facilities get the paperwork their process requires without having to ask twice.
Do you actually buy electrical equipment in Columbus, or just broker it?
We buy it. Industrial Electrical Buyer is the purchaser of record — we fund the purchase, send our own crews to Columbus to disconnect and load, and take title when the equipment leaves your dock. There is no third party behind us waiting to approve the price.
What is the smallest job you will take in Columbus?
A single transformer, one switchgear section, a pallet of bus plugs or a few boxes of breakers is worth a call. Because we route crews across Indiana continuously, small Columbus pickups usually get added to an existing run rather than priced as a dedicated trip.
How fast can you get to a Columbus site?
Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to Columbus is a few business days for a straightforward removal and one to two weeks for a full plant scope that needs phasing, rigging plans or utility coordination.
Do we have to disconnect the equipment before you arrive?
No. We handle removal. Your electrician or the utility performs the final isolation and we verify it; from there our crews lock out, cut and cap cable at the gland, unbolt the sections, skate them out and load them. If the Columbus room is still partly live we phase the work.
