Cleveland County's economy runs on fabrication, plastics and heavy manufacturing, with a community college and a hospital anchoring the institutional side. Electrical work follows the equipment.
Motor replacement programs, line changes and plant expansions all consume cable in partial quantities, which is exactly what ends up in a maintenance crib for a decade.

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