AMM awards and SMS
Coastal U.S. scrap metal processors have long been far better
positioned to capitalize on export markets than their inland
competitors. For one thing, bulk shipping is considerably
cheaper than the containerized transport needed to move material from
the heartland. But that did not hold back largely landlocked Burnham,
Ill.-based Scrap Metal Services LLC (SMS) from punching a new export
avenue through the southern U.S. to Mexico
and beyond.
