New Orleans, LA: Substations Purchase and Removal
We purchase substations throughout New Orleans and the surrounding Louisiana market — units still energized and scheduled for replacement, equipment already sitting dead after an upgrade, and lots coming out of a full plant closure. We buy the gear and we do the removal: one company, one offer, one certificate of insurance.

Substations we buy in New Orleans
We treat Louisiana as one service area rather than a list of towns. Crews moving between New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Shreveport and Lafayette pass through New Orleans regularly, which is why a single transformer or a pallet of bus plugs is still worth quoting here — we add it to an existing run instead of pricing a dedicated trip.
Once an offer is accepted in New Orleans we schedule around your outage window, not ours. Nights, weekends and phased removals are normal. Crews arrive with their own rigging, skates, lifts, torches and oil-handling equipment, pull the gear, protect your floors and leave the electrical room clear for the next trade.

What it is worth
Three things drive the number: condition, whether the equipment is still supported, and copper content. A medium-voltage line-up with current vacuum breakers and a recent test report prices as reusable equipment. An identical structure with obsolete air-magnetic breakers and no nameplate prices on its bus and steel. We tell you which bucket your New Orleans gear falls into before you commit to anything.
Louisiana note
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.

Questions
How fast can you get to a New Orleans site?
Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to New Orleans 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 New Orleans room is still partly live we phase the work.
How do you handle transformer oil in New Orleans?
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 New Orleans and nothing gets dumped — the handling cost is already in the offer.
When do we get paid?
Before the equipment leaves your New Orleans 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.
