Watauga County's construction season is compressed by weather, so material is ordered early and stored. Student housing, short-term rentals and second homes all need service upgrades and underground feeders.
The university adds institutional renovation, which produces different cable entirely: armored, fire alarm and control.

Service area, not a branch
Boone 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 Boone
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 Boone address or ZIP where it is stored
- Loading: dock, forklift, or ground level
