Material
01
What typically turns up
The industrial mix in a region shapes the surplus it produces.
Smaller plants often hold a decade of maintenance spares: a few reels of tray cable, a coil of welding lead, half a spool of THHN in each color. It is rarely one big reel, and it is often worth more than the plant expects once it is quoted as a lot.
Contractors working school and hospital projects around Pella and Ottumwa usually have SER and building-wire remainders at the end of a season.
Partial spools in mixed colors are reviewed one reel at a time.

Questions

Southern Iowa: questions sellers ask
Do you buy small lots from a single plant?
Yes, if the material is identifiable and there is enough of it to handle. A photo of the shelf is usually enough for us to say yes or no.
Do you cover Burlington and Fairfield?
Yes, both are covered, along with Mount Pleasant, Oskaloosa and Centerville.
Can you quote without my travelling to meet you?
That is the normal process. Photos, reel tags and a phone call are enough to quote; nothing moves until you accept.
Still unsure whether your material fits? Call +1 (614) 715-3047 or email saleselectricalbuyers@gmail.com.
