Brass scrap in Florida
Florida yards that buy brass draw most of their supply from tourism, aerospace, agriculture, and construction. Yards price brass by grade: Yellow Brass and Red Brass. Keep Red Brass apart from Yellow Brass and mixed loads, because a mixed pile is paid at the lowest grade in it. Dozens of yards in Florida list brass among what they buy, with the widest choice around Miami, Tampa, and Orlando. Southeast mills and Gulf and Atlantic ports give Florida yards short shipping legs to the buyers of fittings foundries and pump manufacturers. Treat the figures on this page as a daily national baseline; a Florida yard will quote around them once it knows your grade, weight, and how well the load is sorted.

Clean material earns the top of the board: remove steel screws, rubber gaskets, and chrome plating, separate Red Brass from lower grades, and bring ID. Calling two or three Florida yards with your exact grade and weight usually surfaces the highest rate.
