Brass scrap in Kansas
Kansas yards that buy brass draw most of their supply from aerospace, agriculture, and oil and gas. Expect separate prices for Yellow Brass and Red Brass. Clean, sorted Red Brass sits at the top of the board while Yellow Brass is priced for the extra processing it needs. Dozens of yards in Kansas take brass, and sellers near Wichita, Kansas City, and Topeka have the largest number of buyers to compare. Because fittings foundries and pump manufacturers are concentrated across the Midwest, Kansas yards rarely sit on brass for long. Treat the figures on this page as a daily national baseline; a Kansas yard will quote around them once it knows your grade, weight, and how well the load is sorted.

Sort by grade before you arrive, strip steel screws, rubber gaskets, and chrome plating, and keep Red Brass separate from Yellow Brass. Weigh your load yourself, ask for the price per grade rather than a lump sum, and compare two or three Kansas yards on the same day.
