Types of steel we buy

At Trading Metals, we’re happy to buy all kinds of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, including steel in all shapes, sizes and weights.

Dirty light gauge steel

We buy household appliances, including freezers, fridges, stoves, dishwashers and dryers.

Car parts

We purchase both individual parts and complete cars. If you have car parts such as rims, engines, radiators, batteries or catalytic converters lying around, we’ll be happy to get them off your hands.

Clean light gauge steel

This includes various materials such as galvanised sheet, painted or coated metals, whole machinery and equipment containing other metal, as long as steel is the main content. We also accept roofing iron and sheets, which can be recycled and repurposed into new products.

Structural steel

Do you have any heavy, oversized steel from major construction sites or industrial projects you need to get rid of? We buy all types of steel, including I-beams and channel and structural steel, from demolition projects.

Get rid of unwanted metal items

Instead of letting steel scrap waste in a landfill for decades, sell them to us!

Trading Metals works with homeowners, shipbuilders, electricians, plumbers and construction and demolition companies, helping them get rid of unwanted metal items.

We use state-of-the-art equipment to process and prepare scrap metal so it can be reused to make new products. Besides earning cash, you’ll also help reduce waste and contribute to a more sustainable future.
