Retired motor control centers in Tacoma is usually worth more than assumed.

Motor Control Centers buyers serving Tacoma
Tacoma sits in Washington, where Puget Sound Energy, Seattle City Light, Avista, Grant County PUD feed the load and I-5, I-90, I-405 and SR-167 carry the freight. Sites near those corridors cost us less to service, and that shows up in your offer rather than in our margin. Seattle, Quincy, Redmond, Tacoma and Spokane are routine stops and Tacoma work routes with them.
If the Tacoma equipment is still carrying load we phase it — dead sections and spares first, distribution as circuits are released, the main line-up on the final clearance. The phasing is written into the offer so nobody improvises in an energized room at two in the morning.

What we take out of Tacoma sites
Complete MCC line-ups
Multi-section NEMA line-ups fully loaded with starters, back-to-back and front-only arrangements, with main breaker or main lug incoming sections. Allen-Bradley CENTERLINE, Square D Model 6, GE 8000 and Eaton Freedom line-ups all have deep aftermarket demand.
Buckets, starters and drives
Individual starter buckets from size 0 through size 6, reversing and two-speed units, VFD buckets, soft starters, feeder and lighting buckets, and the loose units sitting in your spares room. Buckets sell faster than line-ups and are the easiest MCC item to move.
Washington specifics
Aerospace, aluminum and food processing operations plus Bonneville-territory utility upgrades put large switchgear, rectifier transformers and MV cable on the market, and Puget Sound port access helps on export loads.

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