How Does a Mobile Weigh and Pay Collection Service Work?

Recycling scrap metal is not only an eco-friendly choice but also a great way to make extra money. At Scrap Metal Collection, we’ve made the process even easier with our Mobile Weigh and Pay Collection Service. Whether you have a small amount of scrap at home or a large industrial load, this service brings the weighing and payment directly to your location—making the process fast, convenient, and hassle-free.

If you're new to the concept, here's a breakdown of how the mobile weigh and pay service works, and how it can benefit you.

What Is the Mobile Weigh and Pay Service?

Our Mobile Weigh and Pay service is a fully mobile scrap metal collection solution. Instead of bringing your scrap metal to a recycling centre



we come to you with a van equipped with certified weighing scales. We weigh your scrap metal on-site and offer same-day payment based on the latest market prices.

This service is perfect for:

  • Construction sites with large amounts of metal waste

  • Businesses with ongoing scrap metal needs

  • Homeowners with metal clutter or unused items

  • Industrial or commercial clear-outs

It saves you time, effort, and transportation costs while ensuring you get the best value for your scrap metal.

How the Mobile Weigh and Pay Service Works

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how our mobile service works, so you can see just how simple and convenient it is:

1. Get in Touch with Us

The first step is to schedule a collection. You can either give us a call or fill out our online form to arrange a time that suits you. Let us know what type of scrap metal you have and the approximate quantity, so we can ensure we’re fully prepared to handle your collection.

2. We Come to Your Location

Once your appointment is set, our team will arrive at your location in our fully equipped van. Whether you’re at home, on a construction site, or running a business, we’ll meet you wherever you are. You don’t need to worry about transporting heavy or bulky scrap—we handle everything.

3. On-Site Weighing

Our van is equipped with certified scales, ensuring that the weighing process is accurate and transparent. We’ll carefully weigh your scrap metal in front of you, so you can see exactly how much material you have. This gives you peace of mind, knowing the weight is correct and the process is fair.

4. Same-Day Payment

Once the scrap metal is weighed, we’ll calculate the payment based on current market prices for the type of metal you’re recycling (such as copper, aluminum, steel, or brass). We offer competitive rates and, best of all, you’ll receive same-day payment. Payment options include cash, bank transfer, or electronic payment—whatever works best for you.

5. We Take the Scrap Away

After the weighing and payment, we load your scrap metal into our van and take it away for recycling. No mess, no hassle—just a simple and efficient process. By the time we leave, your scrap is gone, and you’ve been paid on the spot.
