What we buy in Bay City
Surplus, overstock, obsolete and scrap cable — reviewed on construction, condition and footage.
The desk reviews surplus electrical wire and cable held in Bay City and across Matagorda County: full reels, partial reels, cut-offs, obsolete stock and cable removed during upgrades. Bay City work is driven by row-crop and livestock agriculture, chemical and plastics production and manufacturing, which is why the lots here tend to arrive in the same few families.
Because Matagorda County sits inside the Houston & Gulf Coast buying region, a Bay City lot is normally reviewed without a site visit. Send the reel tags and jacket prints, and a buyer will tell you what is worth moving before anyone books a truck.

Bay City wire buying questions
Specific to this market and these cable families.
Do you buy partial reels in Bay City?
Yes, when the remaining length can be established. A partial reel in Bay City is reviewed on the footage that is actually there — from the tag, a measurement or the reel weight — not on what the reel held when it was new.
What cable is most common in Bay City?
Submersible pump cable leads, followed by the other families that ag and chemical work produces. Send a photograph of the jacket print and the review starts from the construction rather than the weight.
Can you collect from a fenced outdoor reel yard in Matagorda County?
Yes. Say whether the reels are outdoors or indoors, whether a trailer can reach them and what equipment is on site. Pickup from a fenced outdoor reel yard is routine once the loading method is known.
Is scrap pricing the same as cable pricing in Bay City?
No. Scrap values metal by weight; a cable review values construction, voltage class, condition and documented footage. A Bay City reel with a legible tag is usually worth more as cable than as scrap, and that is the comparison worth making.
