SELL SURPLUS WIRE IN MARQUETTE
Upper Peninsula mining, paper and port operations run on heavy cable. Marquette-area surplus is less frequent but often larger and higher in value than what we see downstate.
Leftover project wire? Sell it now — don’t scrap it.
Mining, paper and the port
Marquette sits at the center of Upper Peninsula heavy industry: iron ore operations to the west and south, paper mills, port facilities on Lake Superior, a university and a regional hospital.
Mining and mill work require large power cable, motor feeders and medium-voltage distribution. Institutional and healthcare projects add building wire and low-voltage systems cable. Port and utility work brings service and underground cable.
What we buy in the U.P.
- Medium-voltage cable — 5kV through 35kV, shielded and concentric neutral
- Large power and feeder cable — copper and aluminum, 250 MCM and above
- Trailing and portable power cable from mining and heavy equipment operations
- Instrumentation and control cable from mill and process work
- THHN, XHHW and MC from institutional and commercial projects
Making the trip worthwhile
Marquette is a long drive from downstate, so a pickup here has to make economic sense. In practice that means truckload quantities, high-value medium-voltage reels, or a lot that combines several buildings.
Tell us the total weight, reel dimensions and loading capability. Winter access, gravel yards and limited dock space are all normal here, and they are easier to plan for than to discover on arrival.
Consolidating a U.P. lot
If material is spread across Escanaba, Ishpeming and Marquette, say so. Consolidating at one site often turns a marginal trip into a practical one.

Questions sellers ask before they call
Do you buy mining cable?
Yes — medium-voltage distribution, trailing cable and heavy power feeders, reviewed on condition and documentation.
Will you drive to the U.P. for one reel?
Only if the reel justifies it. Medium-voltage and large power reels can; building wire usually cannot.
Do you cover Escanaba and Sault Ste. Marie?
Yes, when the lot justifies the trip. Describe everything you have and we will be straight about it.
Something not covered here? Call +1 (614) 715-3047 or email saleselectricalbuyers@gmail.com and we will answer directly.
Surplus wire sitting in a warehouse costs money every month
Send what you have and we will tell you what it is worth. One reel, a pallet of cut lengths, or a full rack of medium-voltage cable — start with the details and a few photos.
