When entering the docks from the B4066, at the roundabout turn right onto Bridge Road. After crossing the two speed ramps you will see the large green steel fencing of EMR on the left hand side of the road. If you are bringing ferrous metals, please report to the weighbridge office on arrival. The weighbridge office is at the top of the building, access is via the first doorway on the right. There is a sign above this door saying 'Weighbridge upstairs'.

All non-ferrous customers should report directly to our non-ferrous entrance, highlighted with the large red gates which are located on the left hand side as you approach the depot.
