Industrial Metal Recycling

Recycle at scale and streamline your recycling operations with services for your manufacturing plant, factory or construction site. 

Simplify your scrap process

Support local manufacturing and streamline your commercial scrap process, and add value to your business or manufacturing plant with Hayes Metals. We are here to help, including recycling of sensitive items, providing you with a destruction certificate if required, or Carbon Emission reporting.

Dealing directly with the smelter means that we can give you a competitive price for high-volume scrap, based on international metal markets. We can weigh on-site as required, using trucks equipped with certified scales. For regular metal collection, book a one-off or a regular bin service, with pick-ups timed to suit your business needs.

You can also leave large and hard-to-access items to us – our dedicated collections team can dismantle and load the items or scrap, using a crane truck if necessary.

Hayes Metals generally accepts almost all types of commercial and industrial scrap metals, including;
- Metal off-cuts, old parts or surplus materials
- Redundant machinery and parts

- Machine swarf or shavings
- Clippings or punching
- Sheeting
- Pipes
- Plates
- Rods
- Forgings

However, we are unable to accept the following;
- Hazardous wastes, including products containing asbestos
