Why the Upstate produces so much surplus cable
('Why the Upstate produces so much surplus cable', ['The I-85 corridor between Greenville and Spartanburg is one of the densest automotive and advanced manufacturing clusters in the Southeast. Assembly plants, tier-one suppliers, tire plants and machine builders all run heavy power distribution, and all of them reconfigure lines on model-year cycles.', 'That reconfiguration cycle is what generates surplus: feeder cable replaced during a line change, tray and control cable from a retooled cell, VFD cable from replaced drives, and storeroom stock that no longer matches current specifications.'])
('Cable categories specific to Upstate industry', ['Automotive and tier-one plants generate the most VFD and continuous-flex cable, plus large feeder conductor for welding and stamping loads. Tire plants run heavy motor circuits and medium voltage distribution. Machine builders and integrators hold control cable, tray cable and instrumentation cable in smaller quantities.', 'The region also has a large contractor base serving commercial growth in Greenville and Spartanburg, which produces the standard renovation surplus: MC cable, THHN partials and service cable.'])
('Logistics across the Upstate', ['Pickup is straightforward along the I-85 and I-26 corridors. We schedule around plant shift changes and contractor working hours, and we can combine multiple small lots from different Upstate locations into one collection route.', 'For sellers in Oconee, Pickens or Union counties, freight coordination is part of the process rather than an afterthought; tell us what handling equipment is available and we plan accordingly.'])
