We buy surplus electrical wire in Chapel Hill

A university town with a hospital system and very little industrial space. Chapel Hill's electrical work is institutional renovation, floor by floor.

Chapel Hill builds inward rather than outward. University buildings, hospital additions and research space get renovated rather than replaced, which means the electrical work happens in occupied buildings over long schedules.

That produces HCF MC, fire alarm and low-voltage cable in modest partial quantities, plus the feeder and branch wiring any institutional renovation needs.

Where the wire comes from in Chapel Hill

University renovation

Phased work in occupied buildings produces armored cable, control cable and fire alarm cable in well-documented partials.

Hospital and research space

HCF MC, instrumentation and low-voltage cable from clinical and lab projects.

Small commercial and residential

Renovation of houses and small commercial buildings produces SER, THHN and grounding conductor.

Wire types to send from Chapel Hill

Service area, not a branch

Chapel Hill 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 Chapel Hill

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 Chapel Hill address or ZIP where it is stored
  • Loading: dock, forklift, or ground level

Chapel Hill questions

Do you buy HCF MC from hospital work?
Yes. Note the armor type and conductor count, since the redundant ground path matters to the next user.
Do you pick up on campus?
Yes, with the access arrangements your facilities team requires. Include them on the form.
Is small-quantity institutional surplus worth a pickup?
Sometimes. It is usually worth combining several closets into one load, and we will tell you if it is not.
Do you cover Hillsborough and Carrboro?
Yes. Chapel Hill is a published service area and the rest of Orange County is covered too.
