Local service
Switchgear buyers serving Los Chaves
Los Chaves sits in New Mexico, where PNM, El Paso Electric, Xcel Energy feed the load and I-25, I-40 and I-10 carry the freight. Sites near those corridors cost us less to service, and that shows up in your offer rather than in our margin. Albuquerque, Las Cruces, Rio Rancho and Santa Fe are routine stops and Los Chaves work routes with them.
The sequence is short. You send nameplate photos, a one-line diagram or just a list. We return a written itemized offer the same business day with a proposed removal window. On acceptance we survey access in Los Chaves — door widths, floor loading, dock, elevator, crane needs — then mobilize, lock out, disconnect, rig, load and sweep. Payment before the truck leaves.

Equipment
What we take out of Los Chaves 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.
New Mexico specifics
National laboratory and utility work at Albuquerque and Los Alamos produces documented switchgear and transformer disposition, and oil-patch activity in the southeast adds classified-area gear.

Common questions
Los Chaves questions
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 Los Chaves lot as a whole — good gear, obsolete gear and the scrap fraction together — so the electrical room ends up genuinely empty.
Do you provide documentation for surplus property or audit records?
Yes. Itemized purchase agreements, weight tickets, bills of lading, oil disposal manifests and recycling documentation are standard on Los Chaves purchases. Public agencies and audited facilities get the paperwork their process requires without having to ask twice.
Do you actually buy electrical equipment in Los Chaves, or just broker it?
We buy it. Texas Electrical Equipment Buyers is the purchaser of record — we fund the purchase, send our own crews to Los Chaves to disconnect and load, and take title when the equipment leaves your dock. There is no third party behind us waiting to approve the price.
What is the smallest job you will take in Los Chaves?
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 New Mexico continuously, small Los Chaves pickups usually get added to an existing run rather than priced as a dedicated trip.
How fast can you get to a Los Chaves site?
Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to Los Chaves 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.
