We buy surplus 4/0 AWG wire and cable across Georgia, in copper and aluminum, on full reels and partial spools. 4/0 is the workhorse service and feeder size for commercial panels and large residential services.

Ampacities are typical values for 75°C terminations in raceway or cable, based on NEC 310.16. Actual ampacity depends on termination rating, ambient temperature, bundling and installation method, and must be verified against the code edition in force for your project.

How 4/0 AWG is priced

Large conductor is priced against current wire pricing, not scrap. Copper 4/0 AWG generally carries a wider premium over metal value than aluminum, because more projects specify copper at this size and the resale market is deeper. Sealed reels with legible print command the strongest offers; partial reels are priced on estimated footage.

If the print is gone or the jacket is damaged, the material is priced as conductor. That is still a legitimate sale, but it is usually worth checking the print first.

Frequently asked questions

Do you buy 4/0 AWG wire in partial reels?

Yes. A partial 4/0 AWG reel still has substantial value because the size is expensive per foot. Send the tag or a side photo and we will estimate footage.

Is copper 4/0 AWG worth more than aluminum?

Yes, per foot. Copper 4/0 AWG is rated at about 230 A at 75°C versus roughly 180 A for aluminum, and it is specified more often for feeders and service work, so resale demand is stronger.

Can you pick up large reels?

Yes. We plan for weight and access, and we can bring a flatbed with a forklift or coordinate with your dock equipment.
