Central is a town in Pickens County and one of the municipalities we serve in the Upstate. It has a population of roughly 5,247. Central is a Pickens County town adjacent to Clemson with commercial and residential growth, producing building wire, service cable and low-voltage cable. By population it ranks 3rd of the 7 incorporated municipalities in the county, about 10% of their combined total.
The county is a manufacturing county with a major university and a growing commercial base, and its surplus cable reflects that mix. We purchase from Central sellers on a line-item basis, so you can sell part of an inventory and keep the rest.
From Central we regularly buy building wire, feeder conductor and control cable. The sellers are manufacturers, institutions and contractors, and partial reels are as welcome as factory-sealed ones.
