Jack Sparrowhawk & Sons is a well-established and family-run business. We’re proud to have an impressive heritage, which stretches back over 100 years. Since moving to Mitcham in 1926, we’ve been responsibly and efficiently recycling scrap metal from many corners of the UK. So, if you’d like to find out how much your scrap metal is worth, don’t delay in getting in touch with the team today.

We run a fast and efficient scrapping service from our scrap yard in Mitcham. Not only do we buy both ferrous and non-ferrous metals for competitive rates, we also process them in a responsible manner. Of course, with global warming an ever-present concern, we’re pleased to say that we do our bit to help with our quality recycling service.

We can be counted on for skip collections, site clearances, and also offer weighbridge and fork truck unloading services onsite.

Jack Sparrowhawk & Sons prides itself on its friendly approach and unrivalled customer service. And as the company has been trading for over 100 years, we’ve learnt a thing or two about the industry! We have a large customer base, and are proud of our many longstanding clients, which we’ve retained over the years.

When you choose to scrap your metal with us, you’ll benefit from our excellent rates, our environmental conscientiousness, our warmth and our efficiency.
