About River City Iron & Metal
Among the scrap metal recycling sites in Shreveport, Louisiana is River City Iron & Metal, which takes inbound material from local sellers. The business provides a paid intake channel for scrap metal that would otherwise sit unused, and serves walk-in sellers along with small contractors. Posted intake categories are currently blank on this listing in our directory, with no specific materials recorded. For practical details, day-to-day hours are recorded and a phone line, a website, and an email contact are on file. 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. Posted scrap prices move with the daily commodity market, so the intake quoted on a given day can differ from prices listed online or quoted earlier in the week. A short phone call before a drop-off pins down the day's number, and sellers can also use the same call to ask about minimum-load expectations, since some yards quote different rates depending on the inbound size.
