Aluminum scrap in Mississippi

The Mississippi market for aluminum scrap follows the state's mix of automotive manufacturing, forestry, and shipbuilding. Yards price aluminum by grade: Aluminum (Mixed), Aluminum Cans, and Aluminum Extrusion. Keep Aluminum Extrusion apart from Aluminum (Mixed) and mixed loads, because a mixed pile is paid at the lowest grade in it. Dozens of yards in Mississippi list aluminum among what they buy, with the widest choice around Jackson, Laurel, and Magee. Southeast mills and Gulf and Atlantic ports give Mississippi yards short shipping legs to the buyers of rolling mills, can sheet producers, and extrusion billet plants. Treat the figures on this page as a daily national baseline; a Mississippi yard will quote around them once it knows your grade, weight, and how well the load is sorted.
