About A & R REFINING INC
A & R REFINING INC is a demolition and salvage site set up in Memphis, Tennessee within Shelby County. The business takes inbound scrap material from local sellers, contractors, and salvage haulers, and acts as one of the paid drop-off options in the surrounding county. No accepted-materials list appears under this yard's directory entry at present, and no inbound categories are recorded. On the contact front, a phone line is on file. Hours of operation aren't recorded, which together form the yard's published-facing schedule and channel mix as filed with the directory, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before driving 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.
