Metal Skip Hire
At Eco Waste & Recycling, we make it easy to deal with unwanted metals of any size.
Old appliances, garden gates, pipes, beams, bulky offcuts from building work, etc.
Whatever it is, hiring a metal skip saves you repeated trips to the scrapyard and gives you the confidence that every load is handled safely.
Why Use a Skip for Metal?
A metal skip is the best way to deal with heavy, awkward or bulky scrap that won’t fit in household bins. Dismantled machinery, roofing sheets, radiators, metal fencing, it all has somewhere to go with no repeated trips to the scrapyard. All you need to do is fill it, we collect it when you’re ready. It’s cost-effective, saves you time and keeps your site clear while your waste is handled responsibly.
What is Metal Recycling?
Metal recycling means collecting unwanted metals from homes, construction sites and industrial projects, and giving it a new life instead of letting it go to waste. Pipes, fittings, frames and machinery can all go straight into one of our skips, where it is sorted at our licensed facility. Use our scrap metal skip service and you’ll save yourself trips to the tip while making sure your metals are recycled in an eco-friendly manner.
