Yes – at London Metal Recycling, we offer scrap metal collection services across Wembley, London, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire and Oxfordshire.
Ferrous metals are metals that contain iron as the main element. Some common examples of ferrous metals include steel, carbon steel, cast iron, and wrought iron. These metals are often used in construction, transportation, and manufacturing industries due to their strength, durability, and magnetic properties.
Non-ferrous metals, on the other hand, do not contain iron as the main element. Some common examples of non-ferrous metals include aluminium, copper, lead, zinc, nickel, and tin. These metals are often used in applications that require lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and non-magnetic materials, such as in electrical wiring, plumbing, and in the manufacturing of aircraft and automobiles.
