Transformers buyers serving Deerfield
Our Illinois routing runs along I-55, I-57, I-80, I-88 and I-294, which keeps crew and trailer cost predictable for Deerfield projects. Coordination with ComEd, Ameren Illinois, City Water Light and Power on clearances, metering removal and final disconnect is part of the scope, not a change order.
If the Deerfield 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.

Equipment
What we take out of Deerfield 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.
Illinois specifics
Chicago and its collar counties give us the widest range of equipment on this site, from century-old switchgear in loft conversions to switchboards pulled out of Loop high-rises still under warranty. The industrial ring through Joliet, Cicero and the Calumet side runs railcar, tank and metals operations with heavy motor loads. Downstate is a different business entirely: the agricultural processing plants at Decatur and Peoria, the Ameren Illinois distribution system and the refineries in the southwest corner. Bus duct and bus plug work shows up here more than anywhere, because so much Chicago-area industrial and institutional building was wired on busway and the plugs come out by the pallet during renovations.

Common questions
Deerfield questions
Can you work nights, weekends or during a shutdown in Deerfield?
Regularly. Most electrical removals happen outside production hours because that is when circuits can be released. Night, weekend, holiday and turnaround windows in Deerfield 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 Deerfield 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 Deerfield 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 Deerfield lot as a whole — good gear, obsolete gear and the scrap fraction together — so the electrical room ends up genuinely empty.
