why scrap your metal?
We scrap both ferrous and non-ferrous metal.
See our latest blog for more information.
non-ferrous metal
we accept these metals
Non-ferrous scrap metal includes:
- Aluminium – including foil and cans
- Copper
- Lead
- Zinc
- Nickel
- Titanium
- Cobalt
- Chromium
- Other precious metals.
Non-ferrous metals are not magnetic and, while less common than ferrous scrap, they tend to be of greater financial value. Each year, millions of tonnes of non-ferrous scrap metal are recovered by processors and used by secondary smelters, refiners, ingot makers, fabricators, foundries, and other industries, making them an essential resource in manufacturing.
ferrous metal
we accept these metals
Ferrous scrap metal is scrap iron and steel.
This includes scrap from:
- Old cars
- Household appliances
- Steel beams
- Railroad tracks
- Ships
- Food packaging and other metal containers.
You can easily tell if a metal is ferrous by checking if it’s magnetic, as ferrous metals are attracted to magnets.

Brilliant service from Davidson's when we needed our old car taking away. I rang a few firms and Davidson's were by far and away the most professional over the phone and offered £100 more than the next best offer I had. The collection team turned up bang on time and were professional and friendly throughout. Stuff like this can be stressful but Davidson's made it an absolute breeze and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again. I couldn't be happier with the service.
