Building wire and common cable
Branch-circuit and feeder wire used in commercial, industrial and agricultural construction — the wire that most often survives a project as partial reels.
Wire we buy
Wire and cable we buy in Wyoming
Ten categories, one rule: electrical wire and cable only. If it conducts power or signal and it is surplus, we want to see the tag.
01By family
The five families, and what sits inside them
Industrial cable
Tray, VFD, flexible and power cable installed in plants, mines, processing facilities and utility yards.
Control and instrumentation cable
Multi-conductor, shielded and paired cable for PLC, DCS, instrumentation and thermocouple circuits.
Low-voltage and communication cable
Fire alarm, data, thermostat, speaker and security cable, usually left over in cartons and partial boxes.
Medium- and high-voltage cable
5kV through 69kV and above, shielded and concentric-neutral power cable, from utility, substation, wind and plant work.
02Sizes
Common conductor sizes we quote

Copper and aluminum are priced differently, and so are solid, stranded, compact and compressed constructions. State the metal and the strand where you know it.
03Packaging and condition
Any packaging is fine. Condition has to be described.
Packaging we accept
- Full reels and master reels
- Partial reels with readable footage
- Wooden reels, plastic spools and cardboard spools
- Coils, cartons and boxed lengths
- Loose inventory that has been gathered and labelled
Condition we need to know
- New surplus
- Unused
- Overstock
- Cancelled-project stock
- Partial reel
- Used or pulled
- Damaged or weathered
- Other / not sure
No guaranteed acceptance. We do not promise to buy every type or condition of wire. What we do promise is a straight answer: if a lot is not workable for us, we say so rather than stringing it out.
04Out of scope
What we do not buy
We buy wire and cable. We do not buy transformers, switchgear, breakers, MCCs, generators, bus plugs, chillers, machinery, vehicles or general scrap metal. If your surplus includes those items alongside wire, describe the wire separately and we will quote that portion.
We also do not buy fiber-optic cable or finished low-voltage equipment such as cameras, panels and access-control hardware.
Send the wire details and photos
Tell us what the wire is, where it sits in Wyoming and how it is packaged. Photos of the reel tag or jacket legend let us read the material exactly instead of guessing.
