Scrap Metal Merchants in East London | Merchants Services

At Crow Metals, we look to support other scrap metal merchants in East London and nationwide with a fresh approach based on our traditional values of trading in all grades of non-ferrous scrap metal. At our modern, purpose-built facility in Romford, within easy reach of Central London, Ilford, Essex and the M25, we are perfectly located to serve all.

With our knowledge of end users within the UK and throughout Europe, and with our ability to load containers for export to Asia, the Americas and around the World, our traders offer you a personal service with a wealth of experience to find the best home for your material. By ensuring materials are recycled and don’t head to landfill, you have a direct hand in reducing carbon emissions, energy usage, water usage and the mining of primary resources. Scrap metal recycling is an essential part of keeping our world healthy and habitable, and as a member of the British Metal Recycling Association, we’re committed to spreading that message.

Keeping in mind what the corporates have lost, our priorities are to achieve the best levels of scrap metal management along with prompt payments, fast turnarounds and a polite efficient service at all levels – from collection by our fleet of scrap-specific vehicles to bank transfer payments. We help you to #makethemostofyourmetal.
