Brass scrap in Mississippi
The Mississippi market for brass scrap follows the state's mix of automotive manufacturing, forestry, and shipbuilding. 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 Mississippi list brass among what they buy, with the widest choice around Magee, New Albany, and Jackson. Southeast mills and Gulf and Atlantic ports give Mississippi yards short shipping legs to the buyers of fittings foundries and pump manufacturers. Posted prices on this page are national averages updated daily; Mississippi yards set their own rates around them based on volume, prep, and freight, so call ahead with your grade and weight for a firm quote.

Which scrap yards in Mississippi buy brass?
The yards listed on this page accept brass. In Mississippi the largest number of buyers to compare are around Magee, New Albany, and Jackson. Call ahead to confirm which grades a yard takes and whether it is open for public drop-off.
How do I get the highest brass price in Mississippi?
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 Mississippi yards on the same day.
What prep gets the highest brass price at a Mississippi yard?
Separate grades, remove steel screws, rubber gaskets, and chrome plating, and keep loads dry. Yards pay for the grade they can see, so mixed or dirty material is priced at the lowest grade in the pile.
Do I need ID to sell brass scrap in Mississippi?
Scrap yards routinely ask for a government photo ID and record the sale, and state law often requires it for metal purchases. Bring ID, expect a photo of the load, and ask whether the yard pays cash or check.
