Recycling

Scrap metal recycling is the process of reclaiming and reprocessing metals from scrap. It’s an essential part of a circular economy, because it keeps valuable materials out of landfills, helps keep our planet green, and creates jobs for people who can do this kind of work.

Manor Scrap Co Ltd accept a wide range of scrap metals for recycling including aluminium, copper, brass and steel. If you are unsure whether or not we will accept the metal you have please contact us for more information.

Scrap metal can be recycled by smelting it with steel in order to create new steel products. This reduces the need for mining iron ore and other raw materials. Iron and steel are also recovered during this process, which can be reused in making new products. We are committed to handling waste responsibly and recycling as much waste as possible.

We will sort and recycle all scrap metals into categories and cut to size ready for recycling.Waste consumer goods (non hazardous WEEE) such as cookers and electric motors are also accepted for recycling. The WEE directive ensures the proper disposal of these goods without harm to the environment.

We also offer a skip hire service, which means that all of your waste will be sorted for the metal recycling process.

Metal recycling has become common practice today because it reduces pollution caused by mining for new ore and creating new steel products from scratch. Not only will you be disposing of your waste in the best way possible for the environment you can also get paid for it!
