Selling a Transformer in Lodi
We buy surplus, used and failed electrical transformers in Lodi, NJ and throughout Bergen County. Padmount, oil-filled, dry-type, pole-mount and substation-class units from 15 kVA to 100 MVA, in any condition — working, de-energized, surplus or internally failed. Send a photograph of the nameplate and we will price the unit the same day. Every purchase includes the freight and the rigging at our cost.
The New Jersey market for used transformers
What comes available in this state is shaped by what it runs: pharmaceutical manufacturing and research, chemical production along the Turnpike corridor, port and warehouse logistics at Newark and Elizabeth, and offshore wind staging. On the utility side, PSE&G, JCP&L, Atlantic City Electric, Rockland Electric all operate here, and surplus programs and system upgrades release both distribution and station-class equipment. Moving it out of Lodi means I-95, I-78 and I-287 with Port Newark-Elizabeth handling our heaviest export freight. Notably, the New Jersey chemical and pharmaceutical corridor holds an unusual density of medium-voltage unit substations, and plant consolidations there are frequent.
Rural and small-city pickups are our cost, not yours
The reason surplus transformers sit for years in places like Lodi is that most buyers quietly expect the seller to arrange loadout, and arranging a crane and a lowboy for one unit is expensive and unfamiliar work for a plant manager or a town electrician. We remove that entirely. Our crew brings the lift equipment, the rigging gear and the trailer to Lodi and absorbs the cost inside our offer.
Combining freight across New Jersey
For smaller communities we build a route rather than sending a truck for one item. If your unit can wait a short while, we will combine it with other Bergen County and New Jersey pickups, which often lets us pay more than a one-off trip would justify. If it cannot wait, tell us the deadline and we will price a dedicated run.
Removal and Value
Access constraints we handle in Lodi
Very few transformers sit somewhere convenient. We routinely remove units from basement vaults, upper-floor electrical rooms, fenced substation yards with a single gate, roof-level mechanical decks and live plant floors under escort. Where a unit will not fit through the opening it came in through, we handle door-frame removal, wall coring or on-site disassembly. Where the street must be occupied, we pull the permit. None of that is billed back to you.
Why lead times work in your favor
New transformer lead times have stayed long enough that used and surplus equipment holds unusually firm value. Buyers who need capacity in months rather than years will pay for a tested used unit. That demand is what lets us cover the crane, the riggers and the freight out of Lodi and still write you a real check — the equipment is genuinely worth recovering rather than merely worth hauling away.
Equipment We Buy in Lodi
Unit Substations
Complete primary-transformer-secondary lineups: incoming section, transformer, and low-voltage switchgear or switchboard bolted as one assembly. We buy them whole and we buy them by the section.
300 kVA – 5000 kVA60–90 cast-coil units per yearCast-Coil Transformers
Epoxy-encapsulated cast-coil units built for harsh, humid and high-load environments. Because they were expensive new and are durable used, they hold value better than any other dry-type.
300 kVA – 10 MVALots of 2 to 30 vault unitsNetwork & Vault Transformers
Submersible and vault-type network transformers with network protectors, pulled from underground vaults in dense urban grids. Awkward to remove, which is exactly why we get called.
