What we buy in Midland
Surplus, overstock, obsolete and scrap cable — reviewed on construction, condition and footage.
We review surplus electrical wire and cable from Midland and Midland County — service companies clearing yard stock, automation contractors with leftover control cable, midstream operators replacing lease distribution, and electrical contractors finishing facility work.
Permian lots are practical rather than precious. Cable is bought to keep equipment running, stored in a yard or a trailer, and replaced when a well changes hands or a contract ends. Documentation is often partial, so condition and construction carry the review.

Midland industries and seller types
Where the surplus actually comes from in this market.
Midstream and lease automation
Pump stations, tank batteries and gathering systems use control, instrumentation and distribution cable. Upgrades and decommissioning produce surplus in batches.
Permian construction and manufacturing
Facility construction, tank and equipment fabrication, and yard electrical work generate building wire, tray cable and welding cable that outlives the project.

Pickup and access
Freight is planned around the site, not the other way round.
Caliche yards, dust and long internal roads are normal. Tell us whether a trailer can turn around, whether the gate is wide enough for a 53-foot van, and whether a loader or crane is available. Midland traffic around the loop adds time, so pickup windows matter.
What helps a Midland lot move
- Reel tags, jacket print and purchase records kept with the material.
- An honest note on storage — indoors, covered yard, open yard or job trailer.
- The site contact who can authorise release, and the access rules they work under.
- Whether a forklift, crane, boom or only a pallet jack can reach the reels.
Nothing moves before terms. A review is not a purchase. Price, payment method, freight responsibility, loading and pickup date are agreed in writing for the specific lot.

Midland wire buying questions
Specific to this market and these cable families.
Do you buy used VFD cable from pumping units?
Yes. VFD cable is reviewed on conductor size, shielding, jacket condition and remaining length. Cable that has been in a hot cable tray for years may have stiff insulation, which affects value.
Can you review a yard full of mixed oilfield cable?
Yes, but separate the families first: portable cord, welding lead, control, VFD and distribution. A photographed, grouped yard is reviewed much more accurately than a single wide shot of a pile.
Do you buy cable from a company that is closing a Midland yard?
Yes. Yard closures are common in the basin. Provide an item list, access constraints and the date the site must be clear; the review and the pickup plan can run together.
Is aluminium lease cable worth selling?
Aluminium service and distribution cable has recovery value and can be reusable if the insulation and lengths are sound. It is valued differently from copper, so keep the metals separate for review.
