Tri-Miss Recycling at 416 W Woodrow Wilson Ave, Jackson, MS 39213

Tri-Miss Recycling is a self-service auto salvage yard and scrap metal recycling center in Jackson. Located at 416 W Woodrow Wilson Ave, it lets customers pull their own parts from junked cars and recycle scrap metal. Mechanics, DIYers, and car owners come here for affordable used parts or to get rid of old vehicles and metal. The yard runs on a first-come, first-served basis—no appointment needed. Just show up during open hours, though Saturdays close early at 11:30 AM.

Services & What to Expect

Tri-Miss Recycling offers two main services: self-service auto salvage and scrap metal recycling. The salvage yard holds hundreds of junked vehicles where customers can find and remove their own parts. You’ll find engines, transmissions, body panels, bumpers, and mechanical components. On the scrap metal side, the yard takes non-reusable metal from vehicles and other sources, paying customers by weight and material type.

How Self-Service Salvage Works

• No staff help: You enter the yard, find your part, and remove it yourself. Basic tools may be on-site, but bring your own if you need something specific.
• Pay at the gate: Prices are set per part. Have cash or a card ready to pay before leaving. The yard doesn’t offer credit or financing for parts.
• No appointment needed: Walk-ins are welcome during open hours, but get there early on Saturdays—the yard closes at 11:30 AM. Weekdays run from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
• Scrap metal drop-off: Bring in non-reusable metal for recycling. Payments depend on the type and amount. Copper, aluminum, and steel usually bring in the most money.

What to Bring

• A valid driver’s license or government ID for verification.
• Cash or a debit/credit card (some customers say cash gets you a better deal).
• Basic tools if you plan to take apart parts on-site—wrenches, sockets, pry bars.
• Gloves and safety gear if you’re handling sharp metal or heavy parts.
• A truck, trailer, or vehicle with enough space if you’re taking large parts.
