Generators buyers serving Covington
Gulf Coast petrochemical turnarounds are the dominant source of medium-voltage switchgear, MV MCCs and large rectifier transformers in the state, and hot-work permitting is standard on our crews' scope. For Covington specifically that density helps: crews already move through New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Shreveport and Lafayette, so mobilization is a scheduling question rather than a cost problem.
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 Covington site.

What we take out of Covington sites
Standby and prime sets
Enclosed and open-skid sets from 100 kW to 3 MW on sub-base double-wall tanks or remote fuel systems, single units and multi-unit paralleled plants. Caterpillar, Cummins and Kohler move fastest, but every major engine family has a resale market and we quote all of them.
Mobile and rental-fleet sets
Trailer-mounted and skid-mounted mobile sets, including ex-rental-fleet units retired at high hours. Rental returns are usually well documented and mechanically honest, which makes them straightforward to price from a photo and an hour meter reading.

Covington questions
Can you work nights, weekends or during a shutdown in Covington?
Regularly. Most electrical removals happen outside production hours because that is when circuits can be released. Night, weekend, holiday and turnaround windows in Covington are normal scheduling for us, not a premium service.
What happens to the equipment after you buy it?
Serviceable gear is tested, reconditioned where needed and resold as replacement equipment — that resale is what funds your offer. What cannot go back into service is dismantled for copper, aluminum and steel recovery through permitted processors, with regulated fractions documented.
Do you buy equipment that is still energized and in service?
Yes, and most of what we buy is. We quote it now and remove it on your cutover date. Telling us at the quote stage which Covington assets are still live lets us build the phasing and the clearance coordination into the schedule from the beginning.
Our electrical room is in a basement with a tight door. Is that a problem?
It is routine. Switchgear sections, transformers and gensets frequently have to be cut down or partially disassembled to clear a door width, an elevator limit or a stair turn. The access survey at your Covington site establishes the path before we commit to a date, and that cost is already inside the offer.
Will you take the equipment we cannot sell along with the good items?
Yes, and this is usually why sellers choose us. Cherry-picking leaves you holding the leftovers of the leftovers. We price the Covington lot as a whole — good gear, obsolete gear and the scrap fraction together — so the electrical room ends up genuinely empty.
