Why Sellers Choose Us

What a Franklin wire sale involves on your end

01You Are Paid Before It Moves

Funds change hands before a single reel leaves your property. There is no consignment and no waiting on a downstream resale.

02No Sorting Or Stripping

You are never asked to sort, measure, strip or re-spool anything. Our team grades the material from photos and our own inspection.

03We Cover Freight and Loading

Trucks, forklifts, reel handling and pallet wrapping are billed to us. That cost is already priced into the offer you receive.

04Mixed Lots Are Welcome

Full reels, partial reels, boxed coils, loose cut-offs and several different constructions on one skid are all normal to us.

The Franklin Market

From Franklin contractors clearing a job trailer to supply houses rotating old stock, we buy the wire that has to go. Louisiana is active territory for us, and Franklin pickups are routine rather than special-order. You get one number, in writing, and we stand behind it. No re-weighing and re-trading the price once the truck arrives.

Every construction is in scope. What we see most often in Franklin is boxes of plenum Cat6 and FPLP fire alarm cable and sealed cartons of 12/2 and 12/3 MC cable. Across Louisiana we also buy full 500 MCM copper THHN reels off a service upgrade, 4/0 aluminum SER coils from residential service work and 2/0 welding lead coils out of a fab shop.

Who We Buy From

Our sellers here are typically utility contractors with surplus reels, mining and aggregate operations, low voltage and data cabling contractors. We also buy from general contractors on an adaptive-reuse project and water and wastewater treatment authorities.

The triggers we hear most often are straightforward:

  • The job over-ordered and the return window at the distributor has already closed.
  • The feeder schedule got value-engineered and the original reels no longer fit the design.
  • The shop is moving and nobody wants to pay to freight old reels to the new building.
  • The construction is discontinued or an unpopular color, so it will never be pulled from stock.

Pickup and Freight in Franklin

Because we haul our own freight out of Baton Rouge, we do not have to shave the offer to cover a third-party carrier. If the reels have to come out without a forklift, we will plan for it before we quote.

The material is valued on its own merits. The cost of getting it out of Franklin is absorbed on our side. Sellers who already hold a scrap quote often find the difference substantial, because a scrap figure pays metal weight minus processing and ignores what a full reel with a legible print line is worth to somebody who needs to pull it.

How the Sale Works

Four steps, none of which cost you anything

  1. Send What You Have

    A photograph of the reel tags and one wide shot of the pallet is enough to begin. If the tags are gone, photograph the print line on the jacket and we will identify it from that.

  2. Receive a Firm Offer

    We respond with a committed cash figure, usually the same day. It is an offer rather than an estimate, and it does not move afterward.

  3. Schedule on Your Terms

    Pickup in Franklin is arranged around your yard hours, shop schedule or dock availability. If a dock appointment or gate code is needed, we work around it.

  4. We Pay, Then We Haul

    Payment is completed before anything moves. Our crew performs the loading, the reel handling and the wrapping, and our truck removes it.

Selling Surplus Wire in Franklin: Common Questions

Straight answers

Do you actually come to Franklin to pick up the wire?

Yes. Because we haul our own freight out of Baton Rouge, we do not have to shave the offer to cover a third-party carrier. We do not ask you to arrange freight, palletize anything or deliver material to us.

Do I need to measure or sort it first?

No. Sorting is never a condition of our offer. We grade a lot from photos, the reel tags and our own inspection at pickup.

What if the reels are only partially full?

We still buy them. A full unopened reel is worth the most, but partials sell well, and even short cut-offs have recovery value. Tell us roughly what is there and we will quote the whole lot.

When do I get paid?

Before anything leaves your property. Payment is not contingent on us reselling the material afterward.

Will you buy a few coils in Franklin, or only truckloads?

Both. A pallet is worth a call, and if you have a warehouse full of aged stock we will quote the entire inventory as one purchase.

Do you buy aluminum as well as copper?

Yes. Aluminum URD, triplex, XHHW and SER all have real resale markets, and we buy them readily. Do not assume aluminum is only worth scrap price.
