Phelps Brothers is a friendly, family-run business that was established more than half a century ago. At the age of 23, John Phelps set up a scrap business from his home on the High Street, Gloucester and was joined by his brother Robert, once he had left school.
Both keen swimmers and water polo players, they were members of the Gloucester Swimming Club and Robert went on to represent his country in the sport of Modern Pentathlon in three Olympic Games.Today our business is managed by John's son Richard, himself an Olympic Bronze Medallist in Modern Pentathlon, working with his siblings and two sons, as well as a loyal and long-serving team.

Phelps Brothers are a scrap metal recycling company serving domestic and trade customers in Gloucester, Cheltenham, Stroud and Stonehouse. I have used them for years and have always been delighted with the prices paid, quality of service an helpfulness of the staff. Nothing is to much of a problem and they have even collected larger items for me.
