Equipment
Capacitors & Power Quality we buy in Charleston
The I-85 corridor between Greenville and the North Carolina line is one of the densest stretches of modern manufacturing we work in — automotive assembly, tire plants and aerospace suppliers, all running medium-voltage switchgear and unit substations recent enough to have a real resale market rather than just scrap weight. Charleston adds port and shipyard equipment, and the Santee Cooper and Dominion Energy South Carolina systems, together with the nuclear sites along the Savannah River, put well-documented utility-grade gear on the market with test records attached. For Charleston specifically, that density helps: crews already move through Charleston, Columbia, Greenville and Spartanburg, so mobilization is a scheduling question rather than a cost problem.
Paperwork travels with the job: a certificate of insurance naming your entity, a W-9, a signed purchase agreement listing every asset and its price, oil test and disposal manifests where transformers are in scope, and weight tickets or a bill of lading for what leaves the Charleston site. Maintenance, EHS and accounting each get the document they need.

Valuation
What it is worth
Copper is the floor under most of this equipment, and it is a floor that moves. Bus bar, windings and feeder cable set a minimum value we can always pay on a Charleston lot; resale demand for the specific make and model is what lifts the offer above it. Obsolete breakers and discontinued panelboard interiors are the clearest example — unglamorous parts that plants cannot buy new anywhere.

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