About Dixie Waste Paper Co
Among the scrap metal recycling sites in Memphis, Tennessee is Dixie Waste Paper Co, 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. On the inbound side, the listing shows aluminum. Each category here is what the yard self-reported to the directory as part of its standard intake mix, which gives sellers a clean working baseline for what fits inbound flow on a typical day at the gate. Operating hours are posted in the directory entry and a phone line and an email contact are on file. The directory carries what the yard chose to publish about its day-to-day inbound flow and contact channels, 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.
