Wake Forest / Wake County

We buy surplus electrical wire in Wake Forest

Northern Wake County's growth corridor. Wake Forest is residential construction, service work and the retail that follows new neighborhoods.

Wake Forest has grown by building neighborhoods, then the retail and schools to serve them. The electrical work is residential service and branch wiring, plus commercial fit-out along the main corridors.

Because the work is repetitive, the surplus is predictable: aluminum SER, URD, #12 and #14 THHN, and copper grounding conductor in partial reels.

Where the wire comes from in Wake Forest

Subdivision construction

SER, URD and branch wiring from neighborhoods built in phases, with unused reels at each close-out.

Retail and school construction

MC, THHN and low-voltage cable from the commercial work that follows the rooftops.

Service and panel upgrades

SEU, SER and grounding conductor from replacements in established neighborhoods.

Wire types to send from Wake Forest

Service area, not a branch

Wake Forest 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 Wake Forest

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