PDUs buyers in San Francisco
If you have pdus to sell in San Francisco, the fastest path to a real number is a make, model and quantity list. We price against the working secondary market for this equipment class, subtract our own removal cost openly, and send a written itemized offer the same business day.
Our California routing is built around I-5, I-80, I-10, US-101 and the 405, which keeps trailer and crew cost predictable for San Francisco projects. Utility territory matters too — PG&E, Southern California Edison, SMUD, LADWP each have their own switching and disconnect expectations, and we have worked inside them. Silicon Valley and the Santa Clara power district hold the densest concentration of enterprise and hyperscale white space in North America, and California's Title 24 and CARB requirements shape how generators and refrigerant-bearing equipment must be handled at removal.
What we buy: PDUs
Floor PDUs and RPPs
We buy floor-mount power distribution units from 50 kVA to 1000 kVA, with or without integral K-rated isolation transformers, plus remote power panels and sub-feed cabinets. Panelboards, breaker complements and monitoring cards are all part of the value; we prefer units taken out complete rather than stripped.
Rack PDUs in volume
Metered, switched and outlet-metered rack PDUs are worth handling in quantity. If you are pulling a hundred cabinets, that is two hundred vertical strips, and current-generation intelligent units hold real resale value. We buy them by the pallet and count them on site with you so the paperwork matches what leaves the dock.
Transformers and whips
Isolation and step-down transformers, output panels, and the under-floor whips that feed the cabinets get bought alongside the distribution gear. Copper whip runs are usually the quiet surprise in a decommissioning — there is more of it under the floor than anyone expects.
How a project runs
Once you accept an offer in San Francisco we schedule around your shutdown window, not ours. Nights, weekends and phased removals are normal. Our crews arrive with their own rigging, lift equipment, refrigerant recovery gear and packaging, pull the equipment, protect the floor and leave the space broom clean for the landlord or the next tenant.
How the offer is built
Batteries deserve a specific note. VRLA strings usually carry scrap value we credit back to you; lithium cabinets have different handling and transportation requirements that we account for explicitly. Either way the batteries come out of your San Francisco room as part of the scope, properly manifested, not left behind for someone else to deal with.
What you are actually buying from us
We do the decommissioning
Our crews rack out the hardware, de-energize and pull the electrical distribution, recover refrigerant, drain glycol, cut and cap piping, and break down containment and cabinets. You are not hiring a broker who then hires a rigger who then hires a hauler. One company, one point of contact, one insurance certificate.
We do the loading
Rigging, lift and crane work, dock plates, pallets, stretch wrap, load bars, straps and the trucks themselves are ours. Overhead busway comes down on lifts. Generators and chillers go out on cranes. Servers leave palletized and manifested. Nothing about the load-out becomes your problem.
Payment before the truck leaves
You are paid in full before equipment leaves your dock — wire, company check or cashier's check, your choice. No consignment, no percentage of eventual resale, no invoice you have to chase. The racks stay where they are until the money has landed.
Drive destruction, documented
Every data-bearing device is degaussed and physically destroyed, on your floor if you prefer. You receive a certificate of destruction listing serial numbers and a chain-of-custody record signed at each handoff, formatted so your audit team can reconcile it against your asset register.
The room is left clean
Floor tiles reset, penetrations patched, abandoned cable removed, debris hauled, and the space swept. Where a landlord or lease requires a specific restoration standard, we work to it and document the result with photographs before and after.
Written offers that hold
Quotes are written, itemized by category, and hold for thirty days. If your process needs a formal bid document, a W-9, a certificate of insurance naming your entity, or a purchase order reference on the offer, say so and it is on the paperwork.
