Here at Stort Mill Recycling Ltd, we have the facilities to accept all quantities of metals, whether you are clearing out your garden shed or engaging in more business-related transactions. We have a fully calibrated weighbridge, and all non-ferrous metals are weighed individually. Due to market fluctuations, please call for the latest prices on all ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Here at Stort Mill Recycling Ltd, weighing in your metal could not be easier. No appointment is needed; just come down at your convenience. Please see our operating hours above. You will be met by one of our professional waste management specialists who will help you unload. All grades of metal will be weighed and priced individually. Then, you will be taken into the office to complete the due diligence and arrange same-day payment. We offer market-leading prices for both business and personal metal recycling. If you have unwanted scrap, get in touch to see how we can create a mutual relationship based on trust.
Stort Mill Recycling Ltd is a fully licensed waste management site. All customers are welcome, no matter how big or small. We do ask that all customers bring a valid form of photographic ID, as payment cannot be made without one.
With the laws prohibiting cash payments, Stort Mill Recycling Ltd offers same-day payments in two forms. We provide same-day BACS payments into your desired bank account, or alternatively, a company-assigned prepaid Visa card (via Incendia Prepaid). If you would like a prepaid card, we require a valid driving licence and a correlating utility bill within the last 3 months. Both payment methods are processed the same day.
Stort Mill Recycling Ltd is a second-generation family-run independent metal-buying business, providing an efficient service for the disposal of your scrap metal, covering both Essex and Hertfordshire.

Integrity and honesty are the foundations of our business, and we pride ourselves on our customer service. Being a family-run company, we value community and maintain a loyal customer base built on trust and respect.
At Stort Mill Recycling, customer satisfaction is key. Price and service are important, but honesty and integrity are equally crucial. We believe that a little personal service makes all the difference, and our long-standing relationships with customers reflect that commitment.
