About Memphis Wrecking Company, Inc.
Memphis Wrecking Company, Inc. operates as a demolition and salvage site in Memphis, Tennessee within Shelby County. It is one of the local intake points for individual sellers, contractors, and small haulers who need to move scrap material rather than send it to a landfill. Accepted material categories are not recorded for this yard in the current directory entry, with the field left open. Public-facing details show that a phone line and an email contact are on file, and day-to-day hours are recorded. 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. Some yards require ID at intake, and a few keep separate records for ferrous versus non-ferrous drop-offs. Sellers planning a first visit should confirm what the gate needs on a phone call so the paperwork side is sorted before driving over with a load.
