Strictly speaking, we cannot pay you in cash for your scrap car. Changes to the law in 2013 made it illegal to pay for scrap metal in cash. This means we can only pay you by electronic transfer or cheque. We will pay you by transfer of cheque when we collect your scrap vehicle or you deliver to our scrapyard in Wembley.

At London Metal Recycling, providing excellent customer service is one of our core values. With our vast expertise in processing countless end-of-life vehicles and used car parts each year, we ensure you get a fair and accurate valuation for your vehicle.

At London Metal Recycling, we routinely take in vehicles ranging from insurance write-offs, to end-of-life vehicles that will simply cost more to repair than they’re worth, to vehicles that function fine but the owners aren’t keen to use the inconsistent private market. Whatever car you’re selling, the chances are we’ve bought one like it before to be used in our car scrap yard.

At London Metal Recycling, we collect scrap vehicles from the following locations:
