Why use us instead of ringing round?

Scrap steel prices for the same grade can differ by 10–20% between yards in the same area, and most dealers don’t publish what they pay. We track published UK yard prices every day, so we know which dealers near you are paying well for scrap steel right now — and which ones buy from the public at all.

  • Licensed only. Every dealer we work with holds a current site or collector’s licence.
  • Up to three dealers, not a list. Your details go to at most three licensed dealers we work with, and you can tell us to stop at any time.
  • Know the number first. You get our indicative estimate before anyone calls, so you can judge the offer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this free?

Yes. Requesting quotes is free and there is no obligation to sell. You never pay us anything.

Who will contact me?

Either our team or a licensed scrap metal dealer near your postcode. We only work with dealers licensed under the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013 and we share your details with at most three licensed dealers or buyers we work with, never a list.

How quickly will I hear back?

Usually within one working day. If you selected "as soon as possible" and left a phone number, expect a call rather than an email.

Is there a minimum load?

Many yards set a minimum of around 100 kg for steel, and collection usually needs a van load or more. Tell us a rough weight and we will only match you with a dealer that will take it.

Can I be paid in cash?

No. In England and Wales it is illegal for scrap metal dealers to pay cash. You will be paid by bank transfer or cheque and asked for photo ID and proof of address.

Do you collect?

Many dealers collect larger loads of steel — tick "I need it collected" and we will only match you with dealers that offer collection in your area.
