Metal recycling at We Clear Junk

Metal recycling services by We Clear Junk

We Clear Junk, a leading waste collection service in London, specialises in recycling metal waste from both commercial and domestic sources. With a commitment to environmental sustainability, we ensure 100% diversion from landfills, focusing on the recycling of all metal waste, including the challenging white goods and appliances.

How to properly dispose of your metal waste in the UK

In the UK, proper disposal of metal waste involves segregating recyclable metals from non-recyclables and hazardous components. For domestic DIY waste like old bikes and appliances, take them to a local Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC). Commercial entities with larger volumes should use specialized waste collection services that comply with environmental regulations, ensuring metals are recycled and hazardous items are treated safely. Always check with the service provider or local council guidelines to ensure compliance with disposal regulations.

Our services

Most of the metal waste we collect is mixed with other types of waste. We separate and ensure total metal recycling.

Commercial metal recycling: Our services cater to commercial entities undergoing office renovations, fit-outs, and property management companies. We handle a variety of metal waste, including ducting, cables, appliances, RSJs (Rolled Steel Joists), office ceiling frames, and more, ensuring they are recycled efficiently.

Domestic metal recycling: For our domestic clients, we take care of metal waste from DIY projects, old bikes, wheelbarrows, small appliances, and cables, promoting a greener environment.

White goods and appliance recycling: Recognising the hazardous nature of certain items like fridges, air conditioning units, and TVs, we emphasize the safe disposal and recycling of these items. Our team is trained to separate hazardous waste from recyclable content, ensuring safe and environmentally-friendly recycling practices.
