How We Work

What does UK Metals – Metal Waste?

We pay equivalent prices to your local scrap yard.

Our payment process is simple and efficient. Within 5 working days (usually 2/3 days) of collecting your materials, we will transfer funds directly into your bank account. This timeframe allows us to carefully sort, grade and weigh your materials to ensure that you receive the best prices possible. Additionally, we provide you with a detailed Self-Bill Invoice, saving you even more time and hassle.

Our service is designed to minimize downtime and eliminate the need for you to make trips to the scrap yards. We understand that your time is valuable, so we offer a convenient solution. We will provide you with a red wheelie bin at no cost and without any contracts. Click here to Order a FREE Metal Recycling Wheelie Bin. You can easily fill this bin with your electrical and plumbing scrap metal waste, without the need for sorting. We pay equivalent prices to scrap yards!

To further streamline the process, we offer regular collections. Every 6 weeks we will contact you to see if you require your wheelie bin emptying, or more frequently if required, we will empty the contents of your wheelie bin into a dumpy bag. We will carefully photograph, label and mark the bag before taking it back to our yard for sorting, grading and weighing.

Rest assured that we operate within the guidelines set by The Environment Agency and relevant authorities. We are fully licensed, ensuring that our operations are conducted responsibly and in compliance with regulations. Your trust and satisfaction are our top priorities.

What our customers say

We could not recommend and praise Tony and his team at UK Metals SW Ltd. highly enough- they’ve been an absolute godsend for our business. We used to have to take all our scrap metal to our local scrapyard, with all the time-consuming hassle that this involved, but now all the hard work is done for us- while we still get excellent rates paid for any metal recycled.

Tony and his team provide a free of charge bin, which they come and empty entirely at their own cost- with the only thing we have to do is to fill it up with all our unwanted metals. They then collect the bin periodically, or when we ask them to and then we always (without exception) get the payment from them incredibly quickly, within a few days.

I know sometimes things seem too good to be true- but in this case you honestly can rely on Tony and his team for an excellent, professional service- completely hassle free- with a prompt payment made afterwards.

The service provided by Tony makes complete business sense and saves us valuable time and effort dealing with all our scrap metals, with exactly the same result- it really is like getting paid for doing nothing!.

We would highly recommend.
