Short answer: Keep bare wire, insulated cable and unusual cable such as armoured or aluminium cable in separate containers, bundle long cable neatly, weigh each type, get offers from more than one buyer and arrange collection if the load is heavy, because a tidy, well-described load is quicker to price and tends to be paid at a better rate than a jumble.
