#2 Copper market context — North Carolina
Yards in North Carolina that buy #2 Copper draw from the local mix of biotechnology, banking, furniture, and textile-derived industries. Wider regional patterns matter too: Southeast steel and aluminum mills, plus Gulf and Atlantic ports, give yards short shipping legs to downstream buyers of electrical wiring and plumbing. Within the state, Charlotte has the largest concentration of yards taking #2 Copper. End-use demand for electrical wiring and plumbing sets the floor; what each yard pays on top of that depends on its volume and shipping setup. Calling the yard before driving over is the simplest way to confirm the day's rate and that they want the grade you have on hand.
