Scrap Rats
About Scrap Rats
Working in Abbeville, Louisiana, Scrap Rats is an auto salvage and parts site listed in our directory. Listings like this help sellers find a paid drop-off point for scrap material rather than ringing around half a dozen places to find one that takes their volume. The site's accepted-material list is not posted in the directory entry for this yard at the time of the current snapshot. For practical details, posted hours are available for visitors to check and a phone line and an email contact appear in the listing. The directory entry is the yard's own self-reported snapshot of how it handles inbound contact and posted schedule, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit to the gate. On heavier ferrous loads, a rough weight in pounds or tons matters for the quote — sellers should bring a working estimate so the yard can price the inbound and book gate timing accordingly. A short call ahead of the drive sorts both items out before any wheels turn.
