Scrap collection in and around Crewe
Regular collections from industrial estates including Weston Road, Gresty Road, Dane Bank and Crewe Gates Farm, plus drive-in trade for domestic customers from Wistaston, Haslington and Shavington.
Crewe is close enough that both options work: bring smaller loads straight to the yard, or let us collect commercial and bulky scrap.
If you have searched for a scrap yard or scrap metal recycling near Crewe, we are 5 miles away at Alvaston Business Park in Nantwich — about 12 minutes by road, open six days a week, with no appointment needed for domestic loads.

Good to know
Questions we get asked
How much will you pay for my scrap metal?
Scrap prices move daily with the metal markets, so we do not publish rates. Ring the yard on 01270 611447 and we will tell you exactly what we are paying today for what you have.
Do I need to book before bringing scrap in?
No. Domestic customers are welcome to turn up during opening hours — Monday to Friday 8:00am to 5:00pm and Saturday 9:00am to 12:30pm. We are at Windy Arbour, Alvaston Business Park, Nantwich, Cheshire CW5 6PF.
Do I need to bring ID?
Yes. Under the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013 we have to record the identity of everyone who sells us scrap metal, so please bring photo ID such as a driving licence or passport, along with proof of your address.
Do you pay cash?
No — the law does not allow scrap metal dealers in England and Wales to pay cash. We pay by bank transfer, so bring your bank details with you.
Do you collect, or do I have to deliver it?
Both. You are welcome to bring scrap to the yard, and for larger loads we can collect with our own lorries and grab loaders across South Cheshire, North Staffordshire and North Shropshire.
Is there a minimum load for collection?
It depends on the metal and how far away you are — a small load of copper is worth collecting when a small load of light steel may not be. Give us a ring on 01270 611447 and we will tell you honestly.
Not sure what your scrap is worth?
Prices move daily. Give us a ring and we'll tell you what we're paying today — no obligation, no nonsense.
