Elevator Wire

About Elevator Wire

Does Elevator Have Value For Scrap?

Contractors and electricians with excess elevator wire could make a few extra dollars by simply bringing it to a scrap metal yard. Elevator wire, which is insulated copper wire used in powering and running elevators, will have metals inside that are worth scrapping, including copper and steel. It will have heavy cloth insulation as well as a steel core, which may bring the prices down a bit.

Working On A Large Elevator Ripout?

For large loads of elevator wire for a construction job or remodel, you can easily schedule a pick up with the iScrap App’s container request form. A scrap yard near you will be in contact with you. If you are not sure where your closest scrap metal yard is, the app will also help you find yards near you as well as their prices for elevator wire and other metals.

Other Metals You May Come Across

When you are changing out elevator cabling or wire you will most likely be changing other parts on those elevators, so here are some other items to look for:

• Electric Motors
• Copper Transformers
• Stainless Steel
• Cast Iron
