That's the whole model. We're not a dealer trying to move inventory, and we're not a broker taking a cut on both sides. We buy surplus generators outright, pay before pickup, and handle removal with our own crew — from a base in Houston, Texas, anywhere in the country.
Used Generator Buyers grew out of Houston's surplus power equipment trade — the same yards and rigging crews that move turbines, switchgear and gensets out of refineries, hospitals and data centers along the Gulf Coast.
We started this site for one reason: most people with a surplus generator have no idea who to call. They end up scrapping a unit worth real money, or taking a lowball from whoever shows up first. A nameplate photo and a phone call should be enough to get a fair number. Now it is.
We buy diesel and natural gas gensets from 20 kW to 4 MW — standby, prime, towable, containerized — plus the transfer switches and switchgear that come with them. Any brand. Any condition. Anywhere in the U.S., with many units going on to export markets where demand for used power equipment is strong. That export channel is why we can often pay more than a local buyer.
