About Bayou Steel Group
Bayou Steel Group is set up as a scrap metal recycling operation in La Place, Louisiana. The site processes inbound scrap material from walk-in sellers and contractors, and provides a paid intake channel for metal that would otherwise sit in a garage or shed. Which materials this yard takes on a given day is not published in our directory under the current entry. Per the directory, posted hours are available for visitors to check and a phone line and a website are on file. Both data points come from the yard's own filing and represent what the site has published about its inbound schedule and contact options, which gives sellers a working baseline for planning a visit. Phone quotes give a working number, but the final intake price is what the yard pays at the gate after material is weighed and graded. A pre-visit call still gets sellers in the right ballpark and confirms the day's posted scrap rates. Posted online rates tend to be a guide to recent activity rather than a firm commitment for the day, and the gate price is the one that lands on the receipt.
