The Tennessee Scrap Metal Registration Program is managed and enforced through the Tennessee Department of Commerce. The TSRA works diligently to inform and assist the TDOC in all aspects of scrap recycling in the state. Each Spring, the TSRA has a “Day on the Hill” which invites lawmakers and TDOC to attend meetings with our members to discuss the “State of the scrap industry in Tennessee”. These meetings have been beneficial for our dealers statewide to have a united voice to all decision makers in our government. We are very proud of our accomplishments in working to pass effective legislation in regards to Scrap Theft Metal Laws, Purchasing Laws, and the statewide dealer audit program.
Our industry and the world is changing rapidly and the more we can communicate directly with our Legislatures, the better our industry will be because of it!
