Whether it's your old boiler or your car, we can take most scrap metal off your hands.
Items are weighed and paid for according to the value on the day. Cars are valued depending on their age, tyres, and saleability of parts.
We also deal with larger quantities from industrial sources, so call us for advice on your needs and a quote.
Scrap metal laws require all weighed-in payments to be made by cheque, and valid identification must be shown. Please remember to bring your photocard driving licence when weighing in.
Based in West Sleekburn for over 30 years, we are a family-run scrap metal dealer.
Registered and verified by Northumberland County Council and the Environment Agency, we buy all ferrous and non-ferrous material, as well as scrap cars and some household appliances.
We also sell car parts to the public and trade from the wide range of vehicles we have stored.
We are a fully licensed End of Life Vehicle Authorised Treatment Facility and can dispose of your scrap vehicle legally and safely, while verifying all the necessary documents.
WHAT WE DO
Scrap Metal
We buy your unwanted scrap metal
When you bring your waste metals to us, we will help you unload them and get each type weighed.
Our friendly office staff will process your weigh ticket and issue your cheque payment. All you need to do is ensure you have your photocard driving licence, or a valid passport and current utility bill.
We then process your scrap and take it away to be recycled.
Scrap Cars
Cars become scrap for all sorts of reasons. If you need to scrap your car, bring it to us or give us a call for a collection.
We'll help you fill in the log book details, and if for some reason you don't want the car to be resold, we'll issue a Certificate of Destruction.
We store a wide variety of cars available for spares and parts, as well as tyres. Call if you need replacement parts.
Clearances
As a certified waste carrier, we can deal with clearances of industrial units, demolition sites, garages, or even just garden sheds.
We will bring our team and take away the metal-based goods getting in your way.
For Sale
We have items for sale including full cars, tyres, bric-a-brac, car parts, office equipment, and furniture.
Most items for sale are advertised on our Facebook page, or come down for a browse.
We also sell through eBay (shop: K C Forrest) and can accept payment via PayPal for your convenience.
We can help you locate the car parts you need using our computer log system, which allows us to store the location of cars within our yard and check which major parts remain on them, ensuring we can offer the best advice for your queries.
Alternatively, go to the Search our Stock section on the website and check in advance what cars we have.
If you are taking the parts off yourself, we have dedicated work bays where the vehicles are on a raised platform to allow access to all areas more easily.
