How Selling to Us Works
A straightforward, no-cost process that turns idle equipment into upfront cash.
- 100% upfront payment — we pay before pickup
- Free nationwide pickup, rigging & freight handled by us
- Fast cash offers, usually within 24 hours of photos
- We buy any condition: working, idle, damaged, or scrap
Step 1 — Tell us what you have
Call 951-403-5738, email buyers@surplusheatexchangers.com, or use our online form. Send the nameplate and a few photos. One unit or a full plant lot — both welcome.
Step 2 — Receive a firm cash offer
We assess type, size, materials, and condition against current resale and scrap markets, then send a firm, no-obligation cash offer — usually within 24 hours.
Step 3 — Get paid upfront
Accept the offer and we pay 100% upfront by wire, check, or ACH. We do not wait until the equipment resells.
Step 4 — We handle rigging & freight
We schedule and pay for rigging, loading, and freight nationwide. You don't lift a wrench or cover a freight bill.
Why upfront payment matters: you carry no risk and no removal cost. We take on the logistics and the resale — you simply get paid.
Frequently asked questions
Do you really buy used heat exchangers in any condition?
Yes. We buy working, idle, surplus, decommissioned, damaged, and even scrap-grade heat exchangers. Condition affects the offer, but we make offers on virtually every unit. Send photos and the nameplate, or call 951-403-5738.
How fast can I get a cash offer?
Most sellers receive an offer within 24 hours of sending photos and the nameplate data. For full lots or plant decommissioning, we can schedule a same-week site visit. Call 951-403-5738 to start.
Who pays for rigging, removal, and freight?
We do. On accepted offers we arrange and pay for rigging, loading, and freight nationwide. You do not pay out of pocket to sell your equipment to us.
When do I get paid?
We pay 100% upfront on accepted offers — funds are arranged before pickup, not after resale. We can pay by wire, check, or ACH.
What information do you need to make an offer?
The nameplate (manufacturer, model, surface area, design pressure/temperature, materials), overall dimensions, quantity, and a few photos. If you have the U-1 form or original data sheet, even better.
