Transformers buyers serving Derby
Our Kansas routing runs along I-70, I-35 and I-135, which keeps crew and trailer cost predictable for Derby projects. Coordination with Evergy, Midwest Energy, Kansas Electric Cooperatives on clearances, metering removal and final disconnect is part of the scope, not a change order.
The sequence is short. You send nameplate photos, a one-line diagram or just a list. We return a written itemized offer the same business day with a proposed removal window. On acceptance we survey access in Derby — door widths, floor loading, dock, elevator, crane needs — then mobilize, lock out, disconnect, rig, load and sweep. Payment before the truck leaves.

What we take out of Derby sites
Liquid-filled pad-mount and station class
Oil-filled pad-mount and pole-mount units, loop-feed and radial, unit substations with their primary switching and secondary sections, and station-class power transformers with tap changers, radiators and conservators. Oil is tested for PCB content before anything moves, and the manifests come with your paperwork.
Dry-type and cast coil
Ventilated dry-type and cast-coil units from 15 kVA through 5 MVA, including 480 V to 208 V step-downs, K-rated units specified for harmonic loads, and drive isolation transformers. Dry-types move easily, resell quickly and generally carry a strong number relative to their weight.
Kansas specifics
Aircraft manufacturing in Wichita and refining along the Kansas Turnpike generate classified-area gear and MV switchgear, and rural cooperative upgrades add transformer lots.

Derby questions
What is the smallest job you will take in Derby?
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 Kansas continuously, small Derby pickups usually get added to an existing run rather than priced as a dedicated trip.
How fast can you get to a Derby site?
Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to Derby 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 Derby room is still partly live we phase the work.
How do you handle transformer oil in Derby?
Oil is tested, drained and manifested through licensed handlers, and you receive the documentation with your paperwork. PCB-suspect units go under a separate waste profile. Nothing is left on your pad in Derby and nothing gets dumped — the handling cost is already in the offer.
When do we get paid?
Before the equipment leaves your Derby dock. Wire, company check or cashier's check, whichever your accounting group prefers. On large phased projects we pay per load as it ships rather than holding everything until the end.
