Scrap Metal Buyer in Central Florida

When a build wraps or a shop cleans out, the copper and aluminum usually pile up faster than anyone wants to deal with. Industrial Equipment Buyer is a direct scrap metal buyer serving Davenport, Orlando, Lakeland, Kissimmee, and the rest of Central Florida. We purchase copper, aluminum, insulated wire, cable, reels, bus bar, electrical scrap, and mixed non-ferrous surplus directly from the crews and businesses that own it. You sell to us — we're not a scrap yard, a recycling facility, or a hauler you have to load and drive to. We can look at one lot or handle ongoing contractor cleanouts.

One bin of cable or a recurring pile — buying copper, aluminum, and non-ferrous surplus across Davenport, Orlando, Lakeland, Kissimmee, Winter Haven, Clermont, Haines City, and nearby Central Florida.

What we buy

Copper, aluminum & non-ferrous surplus we buy

Our focus is the metal that comes out of electrical and contractor work — copper and aluminum in the forms crews actually end up with, plus the mixed non-ferrous surplus that's awkward to move. Here's the range we buy directly across Central Florida.

Copper

Bare bright, #1 and #2 copper, tubing, and copper busbar left over from electrical and mechanical jobs.

Aluminum

Extrusion, sheet, cast, drops, and cut aluminum parts — clean or mixed with attachments.

Insulated wire & cable

THHN, Romex/NM-B, and larger feeders — copper or aluminum conductor, jacket still on.

Stripped, unstripped & tangled

No need to prep it. Clean stripped copper, unstripped runs, and tangled bins all work.

Reels & pull-outs

Full or partial cable reels, spools, and pull-outs from a build or a rewire.

Bus bar & electrical scrap

Copper and aluminum bus bar, lugs, and the metal-bearing electrical scrap from a teardown.

Contractor scrap piles

The mixed copper-and-aluminum pile that builds up in a corner of the shop or jobsite.

Mixed non-ferrous surplus

Brass, bronze, and other non-ferrous odds and ends mixed in with the copper and aluminum.

Who sells to us

Central Florida crews who sell us scrap

The copper and aluminum we buy comes from the people who generate it every week. If you keep ending up with a pile of wire and cutoffs, we're the buyer you call instead of loading a truck and driving across the county.

Electrical & low-voltage crews

Insulated wire, THHN cutoffs, feeders, bus bar, and pull-outs from rewires and new builds.

General & mechanical contractors

The copper and aluminum that collects on a jobsite as a project winds down.

Demo & teardown crews

Electrical scrap, bus bar, and mixed non-ferrous pulled during a demolition.

Shops & fabricators

Aluminum drops, extrusion offcuts, and copper tubing that piles up between runs.

Facilities & maintenance teams

Reels, cable, and non-ferrous surplus from an upgrade or a decommission.

Owner-operators

Just one bin or a few reels to move? We look at a single lot, not only big loads.

Why sell direct

Sell to the buyer, not a counter

Selling to a direct buyer keeps it simple: one person looks at what you have, makes an offer, and arranges the pickup — no counter, no drop-off run.

We buy it directly

Industrial Equipment Buyer purchases your copper, aluminum, and wire outright. You sell to us.

One lot or ongoing

We can evaluate a single lot, or set up regular pickups for a crew that generates scrap often.

No prep required

Stripped, unstripped, tangled, or on the reel — send it as it sits and we'll talk it through.

We coordinate pickup

Once you accept an offer, we arrange payment and a pickup time around your site or shop.

Straight answers

We tell you what we can and can't use so you're not guessing on the rest of the pile.

Deal with one person

The person who quotes it is the person who arranges the pickup — no runaround.

What to send

What to include about your scrap

You don't need to sort or weigh anything first — send what you have and we'll ask about the rest. For a step-by-step walkthrough, see our guide on how to sell surplus equipment in Central Florida.

Metal type

Copper, aluminum, or mixed non-ferrous — and whether it's wire, bus bar, or solid stock.

Rough weight or count

An estimate is fine — a few reels, a full bin, or an approximate weight.

Insulated or bare

Stripped, unstripped, or tangled cable, and whether reels are full or partial.

One lot or recurring

Whether this is a one-time pile or something you generate on a regular basis.

Pickup location

City or ZIP so we can plan — Davenport, Orlando, Lakeland, Kissimmee, or nearby.

A few photos

A wide shot of the pile plus a close-up or two tells us the most about what's there.

Good to know

Central Florida scrap metal FAQs

What kinds of scrap metal do you buy?

We focus on copper and aluminum and the non-ferrous surplus that comes with electrical and contractor work: insulated wire, stripped, unstripped and tangled cable, cable reels, bus bar, electrical scrap, and mixed non-ferrous surplus. If you're not sure whether something fits, send a photo and ask before you haul it off.

Are you a scrap yard or recycling facility?

No. Industrial Equipment Buyer is a direct buyer, not a recycling facility or public scrap yard. We purchase copper, aluminum, wire, and non-ferrous surplus directly from the people who own it, then coordinate payment and pickup. We don't operate a certified scale and we're not a licensed hauler.

Can I sell one lot, or do you handle ongoing cleanouts?

Both. We can evaluate a single lot — a few reels, a bin of cable, or one contractor scrap pile — or set up ongoing pickups for a crew that generates copper and aluminum on a regular basis. Tell us roughly what you have and how often, and we'll work out an approach that fits.

Does the wire need to be stripped before you buy it?

No. We buy insulated wire and cable stripped, unstripped, or tangled, along with reels and pull-outs. Send a photo and a rough weight or count and we can talk through what you have without you doing extra prep first.

Where in Central Florida do you buy scrap?

We're based in Davenport, so buying around Davenport, Orlando, Lakeland, Kissimmee, Winter Haven, Clermont, and Haines City is close to home. Once you accept an offer, we coordinate payment and a pickup time that works around your jobsite, shop, or yard.
