Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between ferrous and non-ferrous metal recycling?
-
Ferrous and non-ferrous metal recycling involves two distinct categories of materials. Ferrous metals contain iron and include steel, cast iron, and wrought iron, which are magnetic and typically found in structural materials, automotive parts, and appliances. Non-ferrous metals lack iron content and include copper, aluminium, brass, lead, zinc, and nickel, which are non-magnetic and often more valuable. Our Stockport scrap metal yard accepts both types for commercial and domestic metal recycling, offering competitive rates for each category based on current market values and material grade.
Do you accept mixed loads of ferrous and non-ferrous metals?
-
Yes, our Stockport depot welcomes mixed loads for commercial and domestic metal recycling. However, separating ferrous and non-ferrous metals before arrival helps you receive the best possible prices, as different metals command different rates. Our experienced team can assist with sorting upon arrival if needed, ensuring you receive fair payment for each metal type whilst maintaining our transparent weighing and pricing approach that's made us a trusted choice for Stockport customers.
​
How quickly will I receive payment for my scrap metal?
-
We offer same-day BACS transfers for all ferrous and non-ferrous metal recycling at our Stockport location, whether you visit our depot or use our collection service for commercial and domestic metal recycling requirements.​
