What we buy: electrical wire and cable only

Copper and aluminum conductor, building wire through medium voltage, on reels, spools, coils or in cartons. We do not buy equipment — if it is not wire or cable, it is not our category.

01

The eight categories

Each category has its own page with the specific products, sizes and condition notes we review. Start there if you already know what is on the reel.

Inventory formats we review

New surplus, unused material, overstock, cancelled-project inventory, discontinued stock and suitable surplus inventory. Condition is part of the review — we do not promise to buy every item regardless of condition.

Full reels

Factory-sealed or untouched reels with the original tag still wired on.

Partial reels

Reels with footage remaining, as long as the type and size are identifiable.

Spools & coils

Smaller spools and coiled conductor, including cartons of cut lengths.

Warehouse stock

Slow-moving shelf stock, obsolete SKUs and discontinued colours.

Cancelled-project inventory

Material ordered for a job that was re-scoped, delayed or cancelled.

Overstock & closeouts

Distributor overstock, returns in original packaging and end-of-line stock.

Scope

What we do not buy

This program is deliberately narrow: wire and cable, nothing bolted to it.

Transformers, switchgear, circuit breakers, MCCs, generators, bus plugs, chillers, machinery, vehicles and unrelated surplus equipment are outside our buying scope. If your load mixes cable with that equipment, send the cable details only — we will not quote the rest.

Sizes worth listing

#14, #12, #10, #8, #6, #4, #2, #1, 1/0, 2/0, 3/0, 4/0, 250, 300, 350, 400, 500, 600, 750 and 1000 MCM. Smaller control and communication sizes are welcome too.
