Gastonia / Gaston County

We buy surplus electrical wire in Gastonia

Textile mills turned into warehouses, plus a manufacturing base that keeps re-equipping. Gastonia produces industrial wire in quantities that sit for years.

Gaston County's mill buildings are large, old and constantly being repurposed. Re-wiring one of them means new distribution, new feeders and a demolition phase that yields recoverable copper and armored cable.

The active manufacturing plants add motor feeder, control and tray cable to the mix, usually as the balance left after a line change or a motor replacement program.

Where the wire comes from in Gastonia

Mill building conversion

Re-wiring a former textile plant produces feeder cable, grounding conductor and armored cable from both the new work and the teardown.

Manufacturing and motor work

Motor replacements and line changes leave XHHW, THHN, VFD and control cable in partial quantities.

Charlotte-metro overflow

As construction pushes west from Charlotte, Gaston County contractors pick up commercial work and the leftover reels that come with it.

Wire types to send from Gastonia

Service area, not a branch

Gastonia 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 Gastonia

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

Gastonia questions

Do you buy wire from old mill buildings?
Sometimes. Cleanly removed cable with a readable legend is reviewed; cable that has been chopped out with the jacket damaged is not.
Do you buy VFD cable from Gastonia plants?
Yes. Note the conductor size and whether it is shielded, since VFD cable is priced as its own item.
Do you buy single motor feeder reels?
Yes, especially in larger sizes. Short coils of small wire usually need to be part of a bigger load.
Can you pick up from a plant during a shutdown?
Yes. Shutdown windows are often the best time, so include the dates on the form.
