How the Core Buyback Works

  1. Send us your cores. Email info@restopower.com with the brand, model, and condition of your old pumps or motors — even damaged ones.
  2. We inspect & test your cores, typically within 48 hours of arrival.
  3. Get instant credit applied to your order — typically $50 to $1,000+ depending on the unit and its condition.
  4. We handle the logistics. Free prepaid shipping labels and return handling are included.

What Counts as a Core?

Almost any hydraulic pump, motor, or major component — working, worn, or damaged. No minimum order required.

  • Piston pumps & vane pumps
  • Hydraulic & orbital motors
  • Directional & control valves
  • Rotating groups, cylinder blocks, valve plates
  • Complete units, even seized or leaking
  • Most major brands & models

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a hydraulic core?

A core is your old hydraulic pump, motor, or major component that can be rebuilt or reused. Instead of scrapping it, you send it to RestoPower and receive store credit toward a replacement.

How much credit will I get for my core?

It depends on the brand, model, and condition, but credit typically ranges from $50 to $1,000 or more per unit. Email info@restopower.com with your list for an estimate.

Do my cores have to be working?

No. We accept worn, damaged, and even seized or leaking units. Almost any hydraulic pump, motor, or major component can qualify.

Which brands do you accept for core credit?

Most major hydraulic brands, including Vickers, Eaton, Char-Lynn, Sundstrand, Rexroth, Denison, Parker Hannifin, Oilgear, Poclain, and Kawasaki. If you don't see yours, just ask.

Do I have to pay to ship my cores?

No. RestoPower provides free prepaid shipping labels and handles the return logistics.

Is there a minimum order?

No minimum. You can trade in a single core or a full pallet.

What is the difference between core buyback and selling new old stock?

Core buyback gives you store credit for your old or worn units toward a purchase. Our New Old Stock buyback pays cash for unused surplus and obsolete inventory. Different programs for different situations.
