Nice video, Adam. Very informative. Good energy.

[@AdamDunlopElectrical]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@michaeljarcher]

Good to see positive re-cycling in a manor where everyone wins. Including our little planet!

[@LiamJMyles]

Cracking video Adam, signed up and bin has been delivered 👍🏻

[@AdamDunlopElectrical]

Legend!

any SWA over 3m length is worth 5 x scrap value as a proper cable - put in on market place FB and will be gone straight away. Madness to scrap decent usable cable

[@NathanBarley-h6l]

Idk if the UK is different but I'd seriously never recommend selling any scrap cable on marketplace. I did once and then for about a year I had some dirty crackhead who would then rock up to my house randomly every few months asking if I had scrap copper. I'd tell him to f off and then a few days later the shed would mysteriously be broken into.

That great Adam , I’ll mention it to my boss , but not sure it’s in our area East Yorkshire ⚡️👊

[@AdamDunlopElectrical]

Check there website 👍🏻

[@noskills9577]

They need to start operating down south!

[@AdamDunlopElectrical]

There expanding again this year 👍🏻

[@Chris-hy6jy]

Why on earth are you scrapping new drums of flex!!??... and decent lengths of SWA? That's not scrap, that's perfectly usable stock.

[@michaeljarcher]

I think it might of been old colours, Adam wasn't too clear, but that's my guess. Or it might of been brittle where left for so long, but unlikely.

[@Chris-hy6jy]

@@michaeljarcher old colours in flex? That would have to be some VERY old cable lol. Flex has been brown, blue plus earth for as long as I can remember. It didn't look that old.

[@Chris-hy6jy]

@@michaeljarcher I was curious when you mentioned the old colours so I just checked and although I think most of us know the fixed wiring colours changed in the mid 2000's, from red/black to brown/blue, flex colours have been brown/blue since the 70's.

[@travisbro]

thinking exactly the same thing😂 maybe he rarely uses swa and would rather a tenner lol

[@marksmith-ew7ir]

nice edition video on scraping wire a save way but would you get more money if some of it was stripped for clean copper i you had time to do it.

[@AdamDunlopElectrical]

Definitely you’d earn more if you had the time to strip cable however that compared to sparky hourly wage is non comparable

[@geoffbrown8748]

AT LEAST A £1 LESS THAN YARDS

[@Simondofficial]

do you think collecting cat5/6 cable is worth it?

[@ednash3571]

100% you get paid household cable price for that

[@Simondofficial]

@@ednash3571 been missing out big time then 🥲

[@elminster8149]

@@ednash3571 That probably only for solid core though, not the multi-strand?

[@GreencableTeam]

@@elminster8149 Solid core will carry a Single Core Cable rate (around £1 per kilo more than Household Cable). The Multi-Strand/Core CAT cable carries the standard Household Cable rate and we collect an awful lot of it! 👍

[@jamesswinyard530]

My local scrap yard pays nearly £2 a kg for my scrap data cable. Just cut any plugs/sockets off and bag it.
