List a drum, or ask for one

List surplus cable

The button opens an email to sales@cargovate.com with the fields of the drum record ready to fill in. Attach clear photographs of the sheath printing, the drum label and the drum. One email per drum, or one per lot if the drums are identical.

Ask for cable

Looking for a particular cable? Tell us the type, size, length and when you need it. If a listing matches, we introduce you to the business that has it.

Email a wanted request

A listing that gets answered

• Photographs of the sheath print and drum label, not just the drum.
• The length, and how you measured it. "About 200 m" from a weight estimate is fine if it says so.
• The CPR class and the DoP reference for building cable, since a specifier will ask.
• Where it can be collected from, and whether lifting equipment is needed.

What happens next

1. We read the listing or request, and may reply with questions if something in the record is missing.
2. We check the company number on Companies House before introducing anyone.
3. When a listing and a request match, we email both businesses with each other's contact details.
4. Price, payment, collection and any warranty are agreed between the two businesses. Cargovate is not a party to the sale and does not buy, hold, sell or inspect cable.

Who can use it

UK businesses only: electrical and data contractors, installers, wholesalers, manufacturers, facilities teams and public bodies. We ask for a Companies House number with every listing and request. We do not publish listings on this site; they are used only to make introductions.

If the email buttons do not open a mail program on your device, write to sales@cargovate.com with the subject "Surplus UK drum listing" or "Surplus UK cable wanted", and copy the fields from the drum record.

What we do with the details you send is covered by Cargovate's privacy notice at cargovate.com.
