How Scrap Metal Collection Works

  1. Tell us what you have. Send photographs, your postcode, the metal type if known, an approximate quantity and a short note about access.
  2. We confirm the most practical route. We will advise whether collection is suitable and what arrangement makes sense for the load.
  3. We collect, weigh and grade the metal. Suitable loads can be weighed on site using calibrated portable scales. Ferrous material is collected using our lorries.
  4. Payment and paperwork are completed. Payment is arranged the same day using an approved cashless method once the metal is weighed and graded. Relevant waste-transfer and duty-of-care paperwork is supplied on collection.

Collection suitability depends on the material, quantity, postcode and access. Sending clear photographs at the start helps us give you a useful answer quickly.

Collection or Chatham Yard Drop-Off?

Ferrous scrap: steel, iron and other ferrous metals are handled by collection and are not accepted as yard drop-off.

Non-ferrous scrap: suitable loads can be collected, while manageable non-ferrous loads can be brought to our Chatham scrap metal yard for weighing and payment.

See how our weigh & pay service works if you are considering bringing non-ferrous metal to the yard.
