Huge Local & Regional Inventory — Elliott Electric Supply offers over 170 supply locations around the southern states, with over a hundred-million dollars in inventory. This means over 100,000 different types of items & parts are available through our store locations and distribution centers. Our business is modeled on the simple concept of having what you need, in-stock, all the time—something that’s increasingly rare among the competition.
Real-time Inventory Data — We believe it's crucial to know where your materials are at any given moment. That's why our system tracks live inventory data at every Elliott Electric Supply location, as well as materials on delivery or transfer. Paired with our
eCommerce capabilities (like real-time invoicing and order tracking), our system gives you continuous insight into all of your business with Elliott Electric Supply.
Custom Wire Cuts & Parallel Wire — An electrician's best friend! We cut to length, reducing waste and cost for you. All Elliott Electric Supply branches can order paralleled reels (in color, if desired), and many of our locations can cut and parallel wire in house. Please note that special cuts are usually not returnable.
Will-Call Express – We've made traditional will-call pickups more convenient than ever. Order your items however you like, by phone, online, or in person. We'll let you know when your items are ready for pickup. You can then come to Will-Call at your convenience. Pull up, confirm your purchase, and go! Some locations even offer a dedicated Will-Call Express loading bay for a faster load-and-go!
Will-Call Curbside – Our 100% contactless option for paying and picking up your orders,
Will Call Curbside uses
our mobile app. When you arrive for a Will-Call Curbside pickup, simply park at the Will Call Center and let us know you've arrived. Our app enables you to confirm orders, input security PINs, and pay with your mobile devices. We hand-deliver your materials to your vehicle and can load them for you.
Custom Labeling & Packaging — We’re happy to accommodate any specific needs you may have when it comes to custom labeling, barcode printing, packaging, and upon request, parts assembly. Certain restrictions may apply, but we typically can work with any special requests—just let us know what you’d like, and we'll deliver!
Texas BuyBoard Member — As of April 2014, we are an officially contracted member of the
Texas BuyBoard cooperative, which means if you're working on certain state, municipal, educational, or non-profit facilities in Texas, which require bidding and supply through BuyBoard, then Elliott Electric Supply is ready to earn your business!

Inventory Maintenance
We'll personally work with your General Contractor or Project Manager to determine a schedule of materials, making sure your project runs smoothly.

AIM, integrates directly with your storage facilities and stocked vehicles. AIM tracks your live data across multiple inventory sites to automate your procurement / replenishment process.
For more details about AIM and what it can do, please see Our eCommerce Capabilities > AIM.
Free Scheduled Deliveries — Most of our branches offer free deliveries when scheduled ahead-of-time. Same-day deliveries are often possible. When this isn't an option, and you need a delivery immediately, most Elliott Electric Supply locations offer "hotshot" and other expedited delivery options. We'll work with you to time your deliveries as needed, whether you require weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or daily scheduled deliveries—saving you fuel, transportation, & storage costs.
Project Storage Options — Our space can be your space. If, for example, your project has limited room for materials or other constraints, you can store materials with us. We can help set up a shipment schedule to bring you the right stuff at the right time. Every detail of every project is accessible to manage and review via ElliottElectric.com, compatible with any device.

On the other hand, if space isn't an issue at your jobsite, we can cater to your material handling needs with on-site inventory solutions (read more below).
On-Site Inventory Solutions — When your next project demands continual service and plenty of supplies on-hand, our onsite supply solutions are at your disposal. Think of it as your very own Elliott Electric Supply facility right on your jobsite—manned or unmanned—no additional shipping time or hassle required. With a proven record of success, onsite supply facilities help you get your project done faster, at lower cost.
No project is too large — We will stock the onsite supply facilities with everything you need. You will only be billed for what you use, so just grab what you need, and we’ll take care of the rest. In addition to periodic reviews of materials, we have the ability to station an Elliott Electric Supply employee onsite to manage your inventory completely and answer any questions that may arise. We can continually monitor your supplies, ensuring availability, fitment, and replenishment as needed. This way you can focus on the jobsite, and leave the rest to us.
Private Warehouse & Inventory Area Construction — One of the most important aspects of managing your inventory, especially for a large-scale operation, is the designated area for materials—to put it simply, your warehouse. We can help supply what you need to design, build, and manage a highly efficient private warehouse, equipped with our custom technology and software systems. Or, as discussed above, we can set it all up for you. Our attitude is 'anything is possible,' and we're here to provide the best solutions available.
Employee Resources for Inventory Management — Sometimes projects are so big that it makes sense to have staff on-site dedicated to inventory maintenance & management. We can make this happen. You can have your very own Elliott Electric Supply resources, materials, and personnel on hand. We'll make sure you have everything you need at all times!
Personal Solutions, Designed for You — It'd be impossible to cover everything here, because every situation is unique. We bring advanced capabilities,
eCommerce tools, employee resources, and professional know-how to manage your material inventory and maximize your project efficiency, while minimizing your costs. Simply
contact us or
stop by if you'd like to talk in more detail about what we can do to earn your business.
More Inventory Perks & Services
Quality Products — We never sacrifice quality for the sake of making a sale. Since 1972, we've nurtured great, long-lasting relationships with key manufacturers who produce high-quality, reputable materials and equipment. We have direct access to manufacturer inventories and, in certain cases, sole-supplier benefits. For you, this means unparalleled reliability, not to mention excellent pricing. As always, if we don't have it, we will get it for you!
Product Warranties – With our quality manufacturers, many parts come with a lifetime warranty and/or coverage for any connected equipment. Your Elliott Electric Supply sales crew can provide detailed warranty information on an item-by-item basis. Warranty information is also available in our product catalog.
Security Features & Compliance — We are 100% PCI Compliant and handle your data securely, in person and online. Our web system employs TrustWave and Verisign security authentication, and we also offer unique in-person security services.
Custom Security — If desired, you can establish a list of PIN numbers assigned to each purchaser on your account. With this in place, all counter and will-call orders charged to your account will require a PIN number to be entered before material can be shipped. Additionally, you can require a valid purchase order or reference number to prevent unauthorized shipments or orders from being placed. As always, custom requests or special requirements are welcome—
just let us know or call 888-569-7181.
Free Catalog Subscription — Our product catalog is updated and mailed to you annually, free of charge. Additionally, the electronic version, updated quarterly, is available through
our App, and our parts & materials are fully searchable on the
Products section of ElliottElectric.com.
Hassle-Free Returns — Any normally stocked item in resalable condition purchased from Elliott Electric Supply may be returned at any time for full credit. This typically does not include custom cuts of wire or special orders (like some direct orders from the manufacturer).
