LKM Recycling - Sittingbourne

George Wong

One of their lorry drivers today 22 June 2023 tailgated me today after he came off M25 onto M4 westbound towards Reading at 8:50am. White male, slightly chubby, slightly bald, in his 30s, lorry had a UK plate on top of a german plate. Lorry was black at the front and blue at the back, there was a massive LKM sign at the back. Tailgated me for over 20 minutes, using the size of the lorry to bully me, as I was in a small car.

Absolutely disgusting and aggressive driving behaviour, lack of basic staff training and road etiquettes. He could have crashed into my car.

Never heard of LKM until today. You should install cameras in all your lorries and monitor your drivers behaviours on the road, so that they don’t endanger the lives of other road users.

Just had my car picked up from lkm the service from start to finish was outstanding from making the first call and then getting the call back and reminder the girls who I spoke to were very professional and friendly. The driver Tony who picked up the car from me went above and beyond what he had to do to get the car loaded a credit to your team. Well done all a great service.

My car pretty much died of old age so I contacted a few local salvage yards for offers. LKM paid three times the amount offered by the company recommended by my local garage.
LKM responded to my on-line request within minutes and arranged an appointment for collection and explained in detail what would happen, and also phoned to remind me a couple of days before collection.
The driver who collected the car was very polite and completed the paper work, gave me a cheque and explained what I needed to do to tell DVLA.
I thoroughly recommend LKM and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

LKM collected two scrap cars from me this morning. I was very impressed with their service from my initial enquiry through to the collection this morning.

I got some quotes from their website and confirmed everything with an agent on live chat. This was then followed up by a phone call from a member of staff that confirmed the collection date and the prices.

I also received a phone call yesterday confirming the driver would turn up between 7-12 and that he'd ring me before arriving.

Dean (pretty sure that was his name) gave me a call five minutes before arriving. As both the scrap vehicles were running he had them loaded and strapped down in about fifteen minutes. I was then given my paperwork and cheques. The whole process took no longer than half an hour.

I'm very impressed with the service LKM provide and would strongly recommend them to friends and family.

If only more companies were like this. Got online price for collection of old car, within 10 minutes had confirmation call and collection date. Day before collection had courtesy call to confirm, driver arrived next day on time, he called to say he was 10 minutes away, sorted DVLA paperwork, paid me the agreed amount by cheque with no trying to chip me and took car away. Very happy, thanks LKM.

Very good service - everything confirmed by email beforehand and also rang me several times before pickup. Took away my 16 year old VW Bora promptly and paid me £120 for it which I thought reasonable. Issued certificate of destruction by email. Hassle free and professional.

Brilliant service, I requested a skip to get rid of some old metal filling cabinets, reacking etc, it came next day and was taken away when requested! I dealt with Maria who was brilliant! I would recommend them for your scrap metal!

Very helpful when we took our collection of metals to them today. Staff passed us from aluminum to iron areas with politeness and friendliness especially as we had no idea what to do. There is plenty of space and no queues. Would definitely recommend.
