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.

What we look for in fire alarm & low voltage cable

Low voltage and fire alarm cable is the category most sellers forget to mention, and it is often the easiest part of the load to move. FPLR and FPLP fire alarm cable in red jacket, plenum and riser Cat6 and Cat6A, coax, security and access control cable all come in tidy boxes and spools that stack neatly on a pallet.

We buy sealed boxes, opened boxes and loose spools. Plenum-rated cable is worth more than riser because it costs more new. Legible box labels and full 1,000 foot pulls get the best numbers because they resell as-is to the low voltage contractors who use them every week.

Data and communications contractors closing out a project typically have forty or fifty boxes left over, and building a pallet of them is a straightforward transaction. If you have low voltage cable alongside power cable, list it all in one message and we will quote the whole thing together.
