About Kempner Iron & Metal
Kempner Iron & Metal is an industrial steel and scrap business that sets up shop in Kempner, Texas. The site takes inbound scrap from walk-in sellers and small contractors, and acts as a paid outlet for material that would otherwise sit in garages or salvage piles. The site's accepted-material list is not posted in the directory entry for this yard at the time of the current snapshot. Looking at posted details, a phone line and an email contact are on file and posted hours are available for visitors to check. These come from the yard's own filing with the directory and represent the public-facing snapshot of the inbound flow, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit. On larger loads, calling ahead with approximate tonnage and material spec lets the yard quote a working per-ton price and book gate timing. The site can plan inbound capacity, and the contractor walks in with a number rather than waiting at the scale on the day of the drop-off and the drive over.
