Washington, DC: Transformers Purchase and Removal
If you have transformers to sell in Washington, the fastest route to a real number is a nameplate photo and a count. We price against the replacement market for this equipment class, subtract our own removal cost openly, and send a written itemized offer the same business day.

Transformers we buy in Washington
Washington sits in District of Columbia, where Pepco feed the load and I-395, I-295 and New York Avenue carry the freight. Both facts land in your number: a site near those corridors costs us less to service and the saving shows up in the offer rather than our margin. downtown DC, Navy Yard and NoMa are regular stops, and Washington work routes with them.
For Washington sites we quote two ways when it helps: a single number for the scope as it stands, and a line-by-line itemization showing what the switchgear, the transformers, the busway and the cable each contribute. Some teams need the lump sum to move an approval; others need the detail for their asset records. You can have both.
| Item | Detail |

| Ratings | 75 kVA – 50 MVA |
| Scope | Pad-mount, dry-type, substation, unit |

What it is worth
Transformer oil is the item sellers in Washington worry about most, and fairly so. We test it, drain it, manifest it through licensed handlers and hand you the documentation. PCB-suspect units are handled under their own waste profile. The cost of that handling is already inside the offer, so nothing surprises you after the fact.
District of Columbia note
Federal building modernizations put well-maintained switchgear, transfer switches and standby generators on the surplus market with full procurement documentation.

Questions
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 Washington room is still partly live we phase the work.
How do you handle transformer oil in Washington?
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 Washington and nothing gets dumped — the handling cost is already in the offer.
When do we get paid?
Before the equipment leaves your Washington 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.
What if the equipment is old or has no test records?
We still quote it. Records raise the number — a NETA test report on a breaker or a transformer is the single document that most improves what we can pay — but their absence disqualifies nothing. We price Washington equipment on what our technicians and the replacement market say it is worth.
