Gonzales is the service town for the Ascension chemical corridor, with fabrication shops, mechanical contractors, transport yards and distribution warehouses sitting between the plant gates and the interstate. Much of the turnaround labour in the parish stages through here.
Because so much contractor material passes through Gonzales, surplus arrives in contractor form: client valves removed during a TA that were never collected, rental and temporary valves that stayed, and spare sets bought for a scope that was cancelled. It is often palletised, tagged and ready to move, which makes it fast to review.
Mixed lots, partial assemblies, actuated and bare-stem valves and valves needing repair are all considered. We will review a list rather than demand a perfect inventory, and you do not need to sort or clean anything before sending it.
What turns up here
Surplus stock in Gonzales
The common thread in Gonzales is that the material is surplus for administrative reasons rather than technical ones. A unit was re-rated, a line was re-piped, a project closed out, a fleet changed, a store was consolidated. The valve is the part that has to move, not the part that failed.
Collection
Pickup in Gonzales and across Ascension Parish
Collection is arranged from your site, not the other way round. We work to your access rules, your gate booking and your safety induction, and we bring the lifting and loading arrangements. Across Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama we can usually be on site within a few working days of an agreed offer, and faster when a demobilisation date is driving the schedule.
