Where surplus wire comes from around Cairo

Most of the wire we buy in Cairo is not abandoned scrap. It is material somebody bought for a specific job, a specific machine or a specific code requirement, and the job changed before the wire was used.

Grady County's Cairo area is agricultural with manufacturing and utility operations. Agricultural operations use service cable, irrigation feeder and pump circuits, much of it aluminum in large sizes.

What we need to quote your Cairo wire

You do not need an inventory list. The five things below are enough for us to give you a range, and the first two are what actually drive the number.

• Wire type and construction — THHN, XHHW-2, MC, tray cable, medium voltage, or whatever is printed on the jacket
• Size and footage — gauge or MCM, and either the reel tag footage or an estimate from the wrap
• Condition — sealed, opened, stored indoors, stored outdoors, damaged jacket, water exposure
• Photos — jacket print, reel tag, spool face, cut ends and a wide shot of the whole lot
• Location and loading — where in Cairo it sits, and whether there is a dock, forklift or ramp

Selling surplus wire in Cairo: what to expect

We schedule Cairo pickups with loading access in mind. Dock height, forklift availability and whether the reels are still banded all affect how quickly a load can move.

If your wire has been outdoors for a while, say so up front. It does not disqualify the material, but it does change how we estimate usable length, and an honest description gets you a number that holds up at pickup.
