Electrical Wire Buyers in Towns County, Georgia

Wire we buy in Towns County

Surplus in this county tends to fall into a handful of categories. Commercial construction leaves partial reels of building wire, MC and service cable at every closeout.

• Building Wire — Building wire is the general category that covers most of what an electrician carries in a truck, and it is the bulk of the surplus market in Georgia.
• MC Cable (Metal-Clad) — Metal-clad cable is the fastest-installed wiring method in commercial construction, and every Georgia high-rise, school and hospital job leaves partial coils behind.
• SER Cable — SER cable feeds panels and subpanels across the state, and leftover reels from service work are among the most quotable items a contractor can have on hand.
• THHN Wire — THHN is the most common wire in the state and the easiest to sell, provided the print is legible and the spool still holds usable footage.
• SOOW Cable — SOOW is the portable cord that powers everything from temporary job-site power to rental equipment, and unused coils are easy to sell when the print is intact.
• Copper Electrical Wire — Copper is the most valuable wire in almost any surplus pile, and it is also the one most often sold at the wrong price.
• Medium Voltage Cable — Medium voltage cable is the highest-value wire most facilities own, and it is also the category most often sold badly, because few buyers can evaluate it.
• Shielded Power Cable — Shielded power cable is medium and high voltage work: expensive, specialized, and worth a real quote rather than a scrap estimate.
