Switchgear buyers serving Caribou
Our Maine routing runs along I-95, I-295 and US-1, which keeps crew and trailer cost predictable for Caribou projects. Coordination with Central Maine Power, Versant Power on clearances, metering removal and final disconnect is part of the scope, not a change order.
Once an offer is accepted we schedule around your outage, not ours. Night, weekend and phased removals in Caribou are ordinary work. Crews arrive with their own rigging, lifts and containment, protect the floors and leave the room broom clean.

What we take out of Caribou sites
Medium-voltage metal-clad line-ups
Complete 4.16 kV, 13.8 kV and 38 kV metal-clad structures with their vacuum or air-magnetic breakers still racked in, main-tie-main arrangements, incoming line and metering cubicles, relay and protection sections, and outdoor walk-in and non-walk-in enclosures. Current-production vacuum breakers are the single strongest value driver in this category.
Low-voltage switchgear and switchboards
480 V and 600 V drawout switchgear, group-mounted and individually-mounted switchboards, main breaker and main lug sections, distribution sections with feeder breakers, and service-entrance equipment with utility metering. Square D Power-Style, GE AKD, Eaton Magnum and Siemens line-ups all move well.
Maine specifics
Paper mill closures across central and northern Maine have released some of the largest MV switchgear and drive systems in New England, usually with long haul distances we price openly.

Caribou 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 Caribou purchases. Public agencies and audited facilities get the paperwork their process requires without having to ask twice.
Do you actually buy electrical equipment in Caribou, or just broker it?
We buy it. Industrial Electrical Buyer is the purchaser of record — we fund the purchase, send our own crews to Caribou 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 Caribou?
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 Maine continuously, small Caribou pickups usually get added to an existing run rather than priced as a dedicated trip.
How fast can you get to a Caribou site?
Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to Caribou 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 Caribou room is still partly live we phase the work.
