Transformers buyers serving University at Buffalo
University at Buffalo sits in New York, where Con Edison, National Grid, NYSEG, LIPA feed the load and I-87, I-90, I-95, the LIE and the Cross Bronx carry the freight. Sites near those corridors cost us less to service, and that shows up in your offer rather than in our margin. Manhattan, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse and Albany are routine stops and University at Buffalo work routes with them.
Once an offer is accepted we schedule around your outage, not ours. Night, weekend and phased removals in University at Buffalo 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 University at Buffalo 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.
New York specifics
Manhattan building renovations mean busway risers, meter stacks and switchboards removed through freight elevators on overnight dock windows, while upstate paper, steel and chemical plant closures release full substations.

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