Turn That Old Novato Genset Into Value
Novato sits on the US 101 corridor between San Rafael and Petaluma, with a local economy built around life sciences, light manufacturing and regional retail. BioMarin’s Novato presence, Hamilton industrial parks, and the retail cluster along Nave Drive and Rowland Boulevard create regular generator turnover — tenant fit-outs, lab repowers, facility upgrades and relocations all push older standby and prime units onto the market.
We buy diesel and natural-gas generators from 50 kW up through 2 MW and larger. That includes standby rooftop sets, prime movers, trailer-mounted units and rental returns — running or not. Brands we regularly purchase include Caterpillar, Cummins, Kohler, Generac and MTU. If your site in Novato is retiring, replacing or consolidating power equipment, we’ll consider the unit.
Selling is straightforward: text clear nameplate photos and a short site note to 954-740-1983. We typically reply with a firm offer the same business day. Payment clears before pickup and we coordinate everything on site — rigging, fuel evacuation, crane service, permits and freight — to minimize disruption to facility managers and contractors.
Life Sciences & Biotech
Novato’s biotech employers, led by BioMarin, cycle through generators during lab upgrades, relocations and backup-power refreshes. These gensets are often well-documented but may be repurposed after decommissioning. We buy lab standby generators, test-set paralleled units and small prime movers from life-science facilities.
Industrial Parks & Contractors
Hamilton and other light-industrial parks produce surplus units as tenants remodel or contractors return rental equipment. We buy skid-mounted and trailerized diesel sets used for construction, temporary power and site services, and we arrange pick-ups that fit contractor schedules and site constraints.
Retail, Grocery & Distribution
Novato’s retail centers and distribution sites replace standby systems during remodels or when stores repower. Supermarkets and big-box locations free up medium-size standby generators used for refrigeration and emergency lighting — units we buy regardless of operational status.
US 101 and Highway 37
Novato sits on key North Bay freight routes. Highway 37 links US 101 traffic east to I-80 and the Port of Oakland for onward shipping; US 101 moves equipment south to San Francisco and north to Santa Rosa. We organize trucking and container moves from these lanes and handle all freight logistics for Novato pickups.
We serve sellers across Marin and southern Sonoma counties — San Rafael, Petaluma, Corte Madera and beyond. Send nameplate photos to 954-740-1983, receive a firm offer, and rest assured payment clears before pickup while we take care of rigging, permits and transportation.
