About Nelson's Metals
Nelson's Metals is a scrap metal recycling operator working out of Belmont, Mississippi in Tishomingo County. The site serves walk-in sellers, small contractors, and anyone in the surrounding county who needs to turn scrap material into cash rather than haul it to landfill. Material types accepted on the inbound side include aluminum. The categories on file represent what the yard told our directory it routinely takes in from walk-in sellers and small contractors, which gives a working sense of how a load might fit the standard intake mix. Public-facing details show that a phone line and a website appear in the listing, and the hours of operation aren't published in the directory. These two data points are what the yard has published through the directory about its day-to-day inbound flow, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before any drive over. Clean material posts faster and prices better — copper free of insulation, aluminum without steel attached, iron sorted from cast. Sellers spending a few minutes on prep at home tend to land a working price quote at the gate without much back-and-forth at intake on the day.
