Make more of recyclable material
Broad metal coverage
We handle common ferrous and non-ferrous materials within one collection range.
Clear material sorting
Separated loads are easier to identify and direct into suitable recycling streams.
Collection from your site
We remove recyclable metal from your premises, saving you a separate journey.
Recover useful material from unwanted metal
Scrap metal recycling gives steel, copper, aluminium and other useful materials a route back into use. We collect recyclable metal from customers and organisations in Newcastle upon Tyne, including stainless steel, cable and vehicle-related metal. The process starts with a clear description of your load. We identify the main material groups, collect them from your site and direct them towards sorting and onward recycling. This provides a more responsible option than leaving unwanted metal to deteriorate or occupy working and storage areas.
Separate metal types where practical
Ferrous scrap contains iron and often includes ordinary steel. Non-ferrous material includes metals such as copper and aluminium. Keeping these groups apart can make the load easier to identify and helps preserve the recycling value of distinct materials. You don't need specialist knowledge before contacting us. Tell us what the items are, where they came from and whether different materials are mixed together. Photographs can also help us understand unusual pieces or larger collections before pickup.
Frequently asked questions
Which types of metal can you recycle?
Our range covers steel, stainless steel, copper, cable, aluminium and other ferrous or non-ferrous scrap. We also collect metal from vehicles, equipment and machinery. Describe mixed items when you enquire.
Why should ferrous and non-ferrous metals be separated?
They have different properties and recycling values. Keeping obvious groups apart supports clearer identification and sorting. If your load is already mixed, tell us what it contains so we can discuss the most practical collection.
What happens after you collect the scrap?
We identify and sort the recyclable material before it moves onward for recycling. The exact route depends on the metal type and form. Our aim is to recover useful metal rather than leave it unused at your premises.
