Frequently asked questions
What ID do I need to sell scrap at EMR Westwego?
A valid government or state issued ID is required before payment can be made.
How does EMR Westwego pay for scrap?
Cash payment is available on most materials up to $300 per day per individual. Louisiana law restricts cash payment for copper (insulated and bare), aluminum/copper radiators, and other regulated items unless the seller has a business license and the material is a byproduct of that business. Without a valid business license, payment is by check with a 5-day hold before mailing.
Where is the yard entrance?
The entrance is on River Road on the Westbank side of the Mississippi River between the Huey P. Long bridge and LA-18/Louisiana Ave.

Simple enough process but the $9.91 I got for an entire trunk full of usable hinges knobs and screws was not worth the hour of my life driving to and from Westwego. Honestly it’s not even about the $$$ (if NOLA actually recycled I would’ve just done that);however if I had known it would have taken this long for this little $$$ I would have just left it all on my curb and enjoyed my morning.
