Look Up First
Before pricing any demolition job, walk the plant floor and look up: the overhead busway runs, the bus plugs hanging off them every few feet, and the feeder duct back to the switchboard can be worth tens of thousands of dollars intact — and near-zero once it is cut up for scrap copper.
Timing Is Everything
The window between power disconnection and structural demolition is when busway must come down. Call a buyer as soon as the demo contract is signed — ideally weeks before mobilization. Our teardown crews work around your schedule at our cost, so busway removal never delays the excavator and never burns your labor hours.
What the Numbers Look Like
A mid-size manufacturing building might hold 800 feet of plug-in busway, forty bus plugs, and a few hundred feet of copper feeder duct. Scrapped, that package nets a few thousand dollars in copper. Sold intact to a replacement-market buyer, it can bring five figures — with the buyer's crew doing the takedown work.
One Call Covers the Building
We buy the whole busway scope — duct, plugs, tap boxes, even the panelboards and transformers feeding it — with payment upfront and zero testing required. Send photos from your walk-through and get a package number before your bid goes in. That number can be the margin that wins the job.
