What sets us apart
Legal payments without the guesswork
We follow the rules on every transaction. You get a clear payment method that matches current scrap metal law.
Fast money into your account
Our BACS payments are processed promptly. In most cases, your funds arrive within 24 hours.
Clear records for every load
We weigh collections and deliveries on site at R A Bowers Ltd. That gives you a straightforward record of what has been processed.
A straightforward way to sell scrap legally
Cashless scrap trading keeps your sale simple, traceable, and fully in line with current law. We handle every transaction through bank transfer or cheque, giving you a clear payment record from start to finish. In Poole, R A Bowers Ltd weighs all collections and deliveries on site before we process payment.
That matters when you're clearing metal from a home, workshop, or larger commercial premises and need everything recorded properly. We also ask for photo identification and proof of address because that's a legal requirement, not extra fuss. With R A Bowers Ltd, you know exactly how your scrap is handled and when your money should reach you.
How payment works from start to finish
Prompt payment matters when you've taken the time to bring scrap in or arrange a collection. We process BACS payments with no extra fees, and your money should reach your account within 24 hours at the latest unless the transaction happens on Saturday, when payment follows on Monday.
Cheque payments are also available for transactions above £10.00. For identification, we can accept a current photo card driving licence or passport, along with a utility bill for your address. Our cashless system across Poole helps keep every sale compliant and easy to track.
Why cashless trading matters
-
Cash payments for scrap metal are illegal in England and Wales, so our proper cashless process protects you as much as it protects us.
-
Our records help create a clear trail for every transaction, which is especially useful if you're managing regular scrap from a business.
-
We weigh collections and deliveries on site, so your load is processed where payment is arranged, keeping everything clear from the outset.
-
If you're unsure what documents to bring, we'll explain what is needed before you travel.
