The Charlotte metro covers five counties and every kind of electrical work in the state at once. Commercial towers downtown, multifamily in South End, distribution centers along I-85, manufacturing in Gaston and Catawba, and high-end residential around Lake Norman.
Each of those segments leaves a different kind of surplus. Fit-out work leaves MC and #12 THHN. Warehouse projects leave bulk building wire. Race shops and fabrication businesses leave welding cable and portable cord. Residential work leaves aluminum SER and URD.
