Transformers buyers serving Edina
Iron Range mining, food processing and medical device manufacturing produce portable substations, MV cable and clean MCC line-ups; winter schedules are normal work for us. For Edina specifically that density helps: crews already move through Minneapolis, St. Paul, Chaska and Rochester, 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 Edina site.

What we take out of Edina 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.

Edina questions
What is the smallest job you will take in Edina?
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 Minnesota continuously, small Edina pickups usually get added to an existing run rather than priced as a dedicated trip.
How fast can you get to a Edina site?
Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to Edina 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 Edina room is still partly live we phase the work.
How do you handle transformer oil in Edina?
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 Edina and nothing gets dumped — the handling cost is already in the offer.
When do we get paid?
Before the equipment leaves your Edina 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.
