Retired wire and cable in Wauwatosa is usually worth more than assumed.

Wire and Cable buyers serving Wauwatosa
Our Wisconsin routing runs along I-94, I-43, I-41 and I-39, which keeps crew and trailer cost predictable for Wauwatosa projects. Coordination with We Energies, Alliant Energy, Xcel Energy, Madison Gas and Electric on clearances, metering removal and final disconnect is part of the scope, not a change order.
The sequence is short. You send nameplate photos, a one-line diagram or just a list. We return a written itemized offer the same business day with a proposed removal window. On acceptance we survey access in Wauwatosa — door widths, floor loading, dock, elevator, crane needs — then mobilize, lock out, disconnect, rig, load and sweep. Payment before the truck leaves.

What we take out of Wauwatosa sites
Feeder and building wire
THHN, XHHW and RHW copper and aluminum feeders from #12 AWG through 1,000 MCM, single conductors and multi-conductor assemblies, in conduit or free-air. Recovered building wire is the highest-volume item in most plant electrical lots.
Medium-voltage and shielded cable
5 kV, 15 kV, 25 kV and 35 kV shielded power cable, EPR and XLPE insulated, tape and wire shielded, single conductor and triplexed. Long unspliced runs and full reels can resell as cable rather than as recovered copper, which is worth considerably more.
Wisconsin specifics
Paper mills, foundries and food processing across Wisconsin run heavy MCC and busway installations, and mill consolidation in the Fox River valley regularly releases complete electrical scopes.

Wauwatosa questions
Do you actually buy electrical equipment in Wauwatosa, or just broker it?
We buy it. Industrial Electrical Buyer is the purchaser of record — we fund the purchase, send our own crews to Wauwatosa to disconnect and load, and take title when the equipment leaves your dock. There is no third party behind us waiting to approve the price.
What is the smallest job you will take in Wauwatosa?
A single transformer, one switchgear section, a pallet of bus plugs or a few boxes of breakers is worth a call. Because we route crews across Wisconsin continuously, small Wauwatosa pickups usually get added to an existing run rather than priced as a dedicated trip.
How fast can you get to a Wauwatosa site?
Written offers go out the same business day in nearly every case. After acceptance, typical mobilization to Wauwatosa is a few business days for a straightforward removal and one to two weeks for a full plant scope that needs phasing, rigging plans or utility coordination.
Do we have to disconnect the equipment before you arrive?
No. We handle removal. Your electrician or the utility performs the final isolation and we verify it; from there our crews lock out, cut and cap cable at the gland, unbolt the sections, skate them out and load them. If the Wauwatosa room is still partly live we phase the work.
How do you handle transformer oil in Wauwatosa?
Oil is tested, drained and manifested through licensed handlers, and you receive the documentation with your paperwork. PCB-suspect units go under a separate waste profile. Nothing is left on your pad in Wauwatosa and nothing gets dumped — the handling cost is already in the offer.
