Woodstock Power’s Guide to Buying a Used Generator

Following these simple steps on how to buy a used generator are the key to becoming the owner of a unit today:

  1. Contact Woodstock Power Company. This is a smart first choice for anyone who doesn’t know where to begin. Our staff can walk you through the process, and assist during any and all steps along the way.
  2. Identify what you want to power. Generators for private homes versus a building as large as a hospital are going to have different requirements. For instance, single-phase power is suitable for homes and smaller businesses, while large construction sites and data centers or hospitals will likely require a three-phase power generator.
  3. Choose which fuel type you want. The type of fuel your generator will run on makes a big difference. It is important to make sure you choose the best type for your needs; check out our diesel vs. natural gas fact page here if you need help deciding.
  4. Browse our inventory. Searching through our inventory is the best way to get an idea of our current stock and to see if we carry what you’re looking for. If you don’t see anything that matches what you had in mind, describe it to us. Woodstock can help you to locate the generator elsewhere.
  5. Choose additional services if needed. After choosing the generator you’d like to purchase, you may find yourself unsure of the next step. We guarantee fast shipping and can connect you with equipment installers who have the knowledge and tools to get your generator in place.
  6. Enjoy your new generator. We hope that you will be happy with your new generator; always feel free to contact Woodstock with any questions or concerns you have after your generator arrives.
