Apex / Wake County

We buy surplus electrical wire in Apex

Rapid residential growth on the western edge of Wake County. Apex's work is service cable, branch wiring and the leftovers of a fast build schedule.

Apex has been one of the fastest-growing towns in the state for years, and the electrical trade here is dominated by residential and small commercial work rather than industrial plants.

That means aluminum SER, URD and THHN in the standard residential sizes, plus copper grounding conductor and the occasional commercial MC reel from a retail build-out.

Where the wire comes from in Apex

New residential construction

SER, URD and branch wiring from subdivisions built on a tight schedule, with unused reels left at each phase.

Small commercial and retail

MC, THHN and low-voltage cable from the retail and service buildings along the corridor.

Service upgrades and additions

Panel replacements and additions produce SEU, SER and grounding conductor in partial lengths.

Wire types to send from Apex

Service area, not a branch

Apex is a coverage area. We arrange pickup at your site; there is no office or yard to drop material at without talking to us first.

Selling surplus wire in Apex

Send the wire type, gauge, approximate footage and where it is stored. Photos of the reel tag and the jacket legend shorten the process more than anything else you can put in the form.

If you are not sure what you have, call +1 (614) 715-3047 and read the print legend off the jacket. That is usually enough to identify it.

One reel or a full storage room

Both are normal. A single reel of large copper or medium voltage is worth a look on its own; small partials are worth moving when they travel together.

What to include on the form

  • Wire type and voltage class
  • Copper or aluminum, and the gauge or MCM
  • Approximate footage left, or full versus partial reel
  • Reel, spool, coil or carton count
  • Condition and whether the tag is still on the reel
  • The Apex address or ZIP where it is stored
  • Loading: dock, forklift, or ground level

Apex questions

Do you buy residential wire in Apex?
Yes. SER, URD and #12 THHN are the most common items we see from this part of Wake County.
Do you buy small quantities?
If the size justifies it. One reel of 4/0 SER is a different proposition from one coil of #14.
Can you pick up from a home builder's shop?
Yes. Tell us the address type and whether there is a forklift or just ground access.
Do you cover Holly Springs and Fuquay-Varina?
Yes, along with the rest of western and southern Wake County.
