Who says recycling doesn't pay?

Brass Toff is offering a great trade in deal on your old instruments — with plenty of cash to be made...

Instrument
  If you have an old instrument lying around then get in touch with Brass Toff now...

Trade in or recycle your instrument with Brass Toff and they will swap its value for CASH!

Whether your instrument is new, old, well loved or just old, you can take advantage of Brass Toff's superb 'Instruments for Cash' offer. You can also be assured you are looking after the environment too as older or broken instruments will be used fixing others rather than scrapping the metal.

Recycle

A spokesperson told 4BR: "Even if your instrument is broken or missing parts we can offer you a scrap value, as we are always looking for spare parts.

The scrap metal value of brass instruments is minimal, so by trading your old or uneconomical instruments in with us, you you are also helping the environment as we recycle your parts to fix other instruments!"

How it works

Arrange to bring your instrument into the workshop, or send us an email with images and the details.

Depending on the value of your instrument, use your offer to trade in your instrument for a brand new Elliott or Brass Toff will negotiate a value in CASH.

Once a value is offered, get instant CASH or post your instrument to Brass Toff and they will get in touch regarding payment.
