Scrap metal collection in Hamilton
We collect scrap metal across Hamilton and the towns around it in South Lanarkshire: Burnbank, Hillhouse, Fairhill, Whitehill, Earnock, Bothwell, Uddingston, Blantyre and Larkhall. Standard collection is free, and Hamilton is a regular run from Glasgow down the M74.
Covers Hamilton town centre, Burnbank, Hillhouse, Fairhill, Whitehill, Earnock, Bothwell, Uddingston, Blantyre, Larkhall.
What we collect in Hamilton
Hamilton has every kind of housing on one run: sandstone tenements and terraces in the centre and Burnbank, large post-war council-built estates at Hillhouse, Fairhill and Whitehill, and Victorian villas around Bothwell Road. That gives us the full range of household jobs: appliances from flats, radiators and boilers from renovations, and garden and garage metal from the villas and semis.
The business parks and industrial units around Hamilton, Blantyre and Bothwell add commercial work: racking, shelving, redundant equipment and strip-out metal from units and workshops.
Access in Hamilton
Estate housing usually has a drive, shared path or a bin area we can collect from. Town-centre tenements have closes and stairs like Glasgow's; tell us the floor. Units have yards and roller doors; let us know whether there is forklift access for anything heavy.
Parking in the centre is restricted around the Quarry Street and Cadzow Street area, so for town-centre flats a quick agreed slot works best.
Lanarkshire runs
Hamilton is collected together with Motherwell, Bellshill, Uddingston, Blantyre and Larkhall, and often East Kilbride on the same day. If you are anywhere along that route, ask; there may already be a collection booked nearby.
