We buy surplus

Sell us your surplus electrical and automation parts – get an offer

This page runs the other way: you have the parts and we buy them. Spare-parts rooms left after a line is retired, overstock from a finished project, slow-moving distributor stock or a whole plant's MRO inventory – send a list or photos and you get a written offer within 24 hours on business days. We arrange the pickup and pay as agreed.

A written offer, then a pickup

You get a written offer with the amount, the payment method and the timing, and once you accept we arrange the pickup or send a prepaid label. Start on our sell us your surplus page, or read how to get the best offer for surplus inventory first.

The fastest offers come from lists we can read in one pass: part numbers, quantities and condition, plus a few photos of labels and of how the stock is stored. Our guide to part conditions explains the grades we use. Brand, condition and current demand decide each offer, and obsolete parts are no exception: plants still running discontinued controls need those spares.

Closing a plant or clearing a building?

For a whole site, our facility cleanout service buys the MRO, electrical and automation inventory and arranges for the rest to be cleared, so the building is handed back empty for the owner, landlord or lender. The plant decommissioning checklist covers the steps before and after.

What to send for a fast offer

  • Part numbers, or clear photos of the labels
  • Quantities
  • Condition: sealed, open box, used or removed from service
  • Where the items are and how they are stored (shelves, pallets, gaylords)
  • For a large lot: a spreadsheet and a few overview photos

Frequently asked questions

How is a buyback offer different from a quote?

A quote is our price to sell you a part. A buyback offer is our price to buy your surplus: a written offer that states the amount, the payment method and the timing, usually within 24 hours on business days for lists and photos.

Do you buy single items or only big lots?

Both. One valuable drive, a pallet or a whole warehouse – there is no set minimum.

Who pays for shipping or pickup?

We do. For pallets, lots and warehouses we arrange the pickup; for smaller shipments we send a prepaid shipping label.

What makes surplus worth more?

Readable part numbers, known quantities, and parts that are clean, complete and stored dry. Sealed boxes help, and so does a list we can read in one pass; demand for the specific part matters most.

Can you clear the whole facility, not just the parts?

Yes. Our facility cleanout service buys the MRO, electrical and automation inventory and arranges for the rest to be cleared, so the building is handed back empty.
