ON ARRIVAL

From the A38 turn into the Old Airfield industrial estate – this will be on your left if travelling southbound or on your right when traveling northbound.

Once you have turned onto the industrial estate, follow the road around to the right (do not drive straight on) and you will come to our signed entrance on the right.

Should you have ferrous material, please pull onto the main bridge on the right hand side, press the intercom and await instruction.

Should you have non-ferrous materials, drive to the left of the main bridge and back up to the two platform scales located in the big opening.

If you are unsure on what material you have, please feel free to park up in the right hand side and pop in – someone will be happy to come and check for you.
