Sell Switchgear in Janesville, WI
Janesville facility and construction teams call us when equipment is coming out and nobody wants to coordinate an electrician, a rigger and a hauler around one outage window. We are all three, and we pay you for the equipment on top of it instead of charging you to haul it away.

Switchgear buyers serving Janesville
Our Wisconsin routing runs along I-94, I-43, I-41 and I-39, which keeps crew and trailer cost predictable for Janesville projects. Coordination with We Energies, Alliant Energy, Wisconsin Public Service, Xcel on clearances, metering removal and final disconnect is part of the scope, not a change order.
Once an offer is accepted we schedule around your outage, not ours. Night, weekend and phased removals in Janesville 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 Janesville sites
Medium-voltage metal-clad line-ups
Complete 4.16 kV, 13.8 kV and 38 kV metal-clad structures with their vacuum or air-magnetic breakers still racked in, main-tie-main arrangements, incoming line and metering cubicles, relay and protection sections, and outdoor walk-in and non-walk-in enclosures. Current-production vacuum breakers are the single strongest value driver in this category.
Low-voltage switchgear and switchboards
480 V and 600 V drawout switchgear, group-mounted and individually-mounted switchboards, main breaker and main lug sections, distribution sections with feeder breakers, and service-entrance equipment with utility metering. Square D Power-Style, GE AKD, Eaton Magnum and Siemens line-ups all move well.
Wisconsin specifics
Wisconsin equipment tends to be well maintained, which matters more than people expect — resale value is mostly a question of whether the next owner can still buy parts, and Wisconsin plants keep their documentation. The paper mills along the Fox River from Green Bay to Appleton run large motor and drive installations that get rebuilt rather than abandoned, so what comes out is genuinely serviceable. Milwaukee heavy machinery and controls manufacturing, the foundries around Racine and Kenosha, and the dairy processing plants spread across the southern half of the state all release motor control centers and dry-type transformers. We Energies has been converting generation and distribution steadily, which puts substation-grade gear into the market on a predictable schedule.

Common questions
Janesville questions
Can you work nights, weekends or during a shutdown in Janesville?
Regularly. Most electrical removals happen outside production hours because that is when circuits can be released. Night, weekend, holiday and turnaround windows in Janesville are normal scheduling for us, not a premium service.
What happens to the equipment after you buy it?
Serviceable gear is tested, reconditioned where needed and resold as replacement equipment — that resale is what funds your offer. What cannot go back into service is dismantled for copper, aluminum and steel recovery through permitted processors, with regulated fractions documented.
Do you buy equipment that is still energized and in service?
Yes, and most of what we buy is. We quote it now and remove it on your cutover date. Telling us at the quote stage which Janesville assets are still live lets us build the phasing and the clearance coordination into the schedule from the beginning.
Our electrical room is in a basement with a tight door. Is that a problem?
It is routine. Switchgear sections, transformers and gensets frequently have to be cut down or partially disassembled to clear a door width, an elevator limit or a stair turn. The access survey at your Janesville site establishes the path before we commit to a date, and that cost is already inside the offer.
Will you take the equipment we cannot sell along with the good items?
Yes, and this is usually why sellers choose us. Cherry-picking leaves you holding the leftovers of the leftovers. We price the Janesville lot as a whole — good gear, obsolete gear and the scrap fraction together — so the electrical room ends up genuinely empty.
