Arkansas is a southern state and has a population over 3 million people. This makes it a excellent location for selling scrap metal. Before we give you the information on the best scrap yards in Arkansas, first we need to go through the laws.

Arkansas, like many of the southern states has strict laws for selling scrap as a result of huge amounts of scrap theft. Firstly, the scrap yard will require to take a copy of your ID and photo or video records of all materials that you sell. You will also need to give them a finger print, normal the right index finger, to complete any transaction. Scrap yards are required to keep records of each and every purchase for at least a year. Law enforcement have the power to tag any material to be held for 7 days while they conduct investigation. When a vehicle is scrapped the scrap yard will need to check the National Motor Vehicle Title Information System for theft. The final law to be aware of will not be relevant to many scrappers. If you have been previously convicted of scrap metal theft you will need to wait 3 days to be paid for any scrap metal that you sell. This will be paid via check.

Arkansas' state capital, Little Rock, has a population of around 750,000 people. A quarter of the states population, making it the best place in Arkansas to sell your scrap metal.
