Greensboro / Guilford County

We buy surplus electrical wire in Greensboro

Distribution, aviation manufacturing and two large universities. Greensboro's electrical work is heavy commercial and industrial, and both ends of that produce surplus reels.

Guilford County has become a logistics market. Warehouses along the I-40 and I-85 corridors get built, expanded and re-lit, and each project consumes a lot of THHN, MC and conduit fill before it opens.

On the industrial side, the aviation manufacturing cluster around Piedmont Triad International and the machine shops that support it buy tray, control and welding cable in lengths that rarely get fully used.

Where the wire comes from in Greensboro

Distribution and warehouse projects

High-bay lighting, panel upgrades and dock equipment work all pull from reels of #12 and #10 THHN and leave the balance behind.

Aviation and advanced manufacturing

The PTI industrial cluster runs on control cable, tray cable and VFD cable, plus welding lead in the fabrication shops that serve it.

University and healthcare campuses

UNC Greensboro, NC A&T and the hospital campuses run continuous renovation, which produces steady partial reels of MC and feeder wire.

Wire types to send from Greensboro

Service area, not a branch

Greensboro 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 Greensboro

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

Greensboro questions

Do you buy wire from Greensboro warehouses?
Yes. Lighting retrofits and dock expansions are a common source of partial THHN and MC reels.
Do you buy welding cable from Triad machine shops?
Yes, when the jacket is intact and the size is marked. List it as its own line.
Can you pick up from an industrial park outside the city?
Yes. Include the city or ZIP and whether there is a dock, since site access drives the logistics.
Do you buy control cable from plant shutdowns?
Regularly. Shutdown and turnaround leftovers are one of the more predictable sources of good control cable.
