Recycle your scrap metal quickly and efficiently
Payment Methods
We offer immediate settlement on payment when you deliver your metals whether large or small. We offer two payment methods which include:
Bank Transfer
All bank transfers are processed the same day.
Bread Pre-Paid Card
This card runs completely independently of your bank account. If you have a UK address you are eligible to receive a bread card subject to passport, driving license, mobile phone number and email address.
This card is ideal for customers who make regular deliveries or those who want to keep payments separate from their bank accounts.
The Bread Prepaid Corporate Card is issued by IDT Financial Services Limited pursuant to license from MasterCard International Incorporated.

Do I need to bring anything with me?
Since the Scrap Metal Dealers Act was introduced, all buyers of scrap metal, including mobile collectors, must ask you for a copy of your photo ID and proof of address, which must be dated within three months. A UK photo driving license is probably the easiest form of identification, however, we also accept passports and bank cards as well as a proof of address (i.e: bank statement or utility bill dated within 3 months).
We are unable to issue payment until this has been seen.
Relevant Law
The relevant legislation which applies to trading in England and Wales can be found within the Scrap Metal Dealers Act (2013), and we have ensured all our site services are fully compliant.
From the 1st of October 2013, it is illegal for anyone to buy scrap metal using cash. Dealers must also verify the identity of all sellers and record transaction details. Financial transactions will be made either via automated bank transfer, cheque or pre-paid cash card. Valid forms of photographic ID i.e. passport or Photocard driving licence and formal documents as proof of address are also required as part of the sale process. This can include bank or building society and credit card statements, council tax documents or utility bills from the last 3 months.
Data Protection
All information is held securely and in line with requirements by the Data Protection Act (1998).
