Transformers buyers serving New City
We treat New York as a single service area instead of a list of towns. That is why a single item in New City is still worth quoting — it gets added to an existing run between New York City, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse and Albany rather than priced as a dedicated trip.
Once an offer is accepted we schedule around your outage, not ours. Night, weekend and phased removals in New City are ordinary work. Crews arrive with their own rigging, lifts and containment, protect the floors and leave the room broom clean.

Equipment
What we take out of New City 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
New York is two completely different jobs sharing a state line. In the five boroughs and the lower Hudson Valley the work is vertical and permit-heavy: switchboards and busway risers coming out of pre-war commercial buildings, hospital and university plants replacing essential-power systems, and Con Edison network gear on a renewal cycle that never really stops. Freight elevators, night windows and street-level staging decide the schedule far more than the rigging does. Upstate is horizontal and industrial — the Buffalo and Niagara Falls electrochemical and metals legacy, Rochester optics and imaging plants that have been shedding infrastructure for two decades, Syracuse and Utica manufacturing, and the semiconductor and battery build-out that is now retiring the gear it replaced. Bus duct is unusually common in both halves, because so much of this building stock was wired when busway was the standard answer.

Common questions
New City 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 New City purchases. Public agencies and audited facilities get the paperwork their process requires without having to ask twice.
Do you actually buy electrical equipment in New City, or just broker it?
We buy it. Northeast Electrical Buyers is the purchaser of record — we fund the purchase, send our own crews to New City 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 New City?
A single transformer, one switchgear section, a pallet of breakers or a few boxes of breakers is worth a call. Because we route crews across New York continuously, small New City pickups usually get added to an existing run rather than priced as a dedicated trip.
How fast can you get to a New City site?
Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to New City 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 City room is still partly live we phase the work.
