What we offer

Great rates, from a team that knows you.

The credit union offers savings and loans for the whole IBEW Local 558 family, and members have trusted it with both since 1958. Every member gets the same rate for the same loan and term, and the dividends on savings go back to the people who own the place.

Our Heritage

Wired by the same hands that wired this valley.

Fifteen electrical workers chartered IBEW Local 558 in Sheffield in 1918, building the nitrate plants that powered a war. Their sons and daughters ran conduit through the TVA dams and wired the rockets at Redstone. In 1958, those same members put in their own money and started this credit union — so a journeyman could finance a truck when the banks downtown wouldn’t take the call.

It ran out of a modular building across from the old union hall for years. Today it sits on East 17th Street, next door to the same local. Same members, same purpose, same handshake.

Local 558 members who fought for fair wages wanted fair rates too, so they built a credit union of their own.
