Columbus Recycling has been providing dependable service in the scrap recycling business for over half a century. Founded as a single scrap yard in 1956 by Henry Weiss, the company has become one of the Southeast’s leading independent metal recyclers, with five locations in Mississippi and Tennessee.

Columbus Recycling purchases scrap material from industrial manufacturers that range in size from sole proprietorships to Fortune 50 companies. Columbus Recycling also purchases scrap material from individuals and small-haul recyclers; then, processes the scrap – which includes cleaning, sorting, compacting, baling, shearing and bundling – and sells the material to foundries, mills and steel processing facilities where it is recycled into new products. The Columbus Recycling process helps the environment and supports domestic manufacturing and production.
