One local shop I once worked for would hold the copper wire for a job in the shop until the job was ready to install it. Didn't really help tho - someone broke into the shop warehouse the night before a big wire delivery and drove the truck (loaded with the copper wire) right thru the warehouse door, the yard fence, and kept on a-going. They got the truck back a week or so later - the perps left it parked behind a row of commercial units and someone finally called the contractor to see if they would come move their truck outta the way.
