Recycling in New Iberia: A Local Guide
New Iberia sits in the heart of Iberia Parish, which runs its own free public recycling program alongside several private scrap operations. The parish maintains drop-off bins accessible 24/7 at four locations — Public Works (4018 E. Old Spanish Trail), the Old Parish Barn (5013 Avery Island Rd), Sugarena (713 Northwest By-pass), and Delcambre Boat Landing — accepting paper, plastic, aluminum cans, and small metal cans. Iberia Parish also holds an annual Household Waste Day for batteries, paint, electronics, and tires. For all listings in the state, see the Louisiana recycling directory.
Two scrap metal yards serve New Iberia residents and small contractors. L & K Metals Inc at 3514 E Old Spanish Trail buys copper, brass, aluminum, tin, appliances, and junk cars Monday through Friday and Saturday mornings. Further out on Marina Road, Thibodeaux & Son Scrapyard accepts ferrous and non-ferrous scrap Tuesday through Saturday, with the unusual closure on both Sunday and Monday. Both yards pay by weight at current commodity rates — call ahead for today's prices before hauling in a load.
Inside the New Iberia Walmart Supercenter at 1205 E Admiral Doyle Dr, an ecoATM kiosk in the grocery vestibule pays instant cash for used smartphones, tablets, and iPods. Bring a state-issued photo ID; the machine handles the valuation and payment automatically. For construction debris, Pace Landfill at 6505 Coteau Rd takes C&D materials Monday through Friday, 7 AM to 4 PM — it is not a household recycling site.
