Wigan
Collections across Wigan and Leigh, covering the distribution parks and the engineering units.
Wigan's industrial base leans towards distribution, food and drink manufacturing, and engineering — which means a steady flow of electric motors, drive units and stainless rather than the one-off strip-out material a construction town produces.
That kind of scrap suits a standing arrangement. We can leave a Dolav or a skip on site as a dedicated non-ferrous point and empty it on a schedule, so it stops being something someone has to deal with.

Worth knowing
Motors and compressor pots are worth separating from general scrap before they go anywhere — the copper inside is the value, and once they are mixed into a skip of steel that value is gone.
