Scrap my car in Armthorpe
Armthorpe is east of Doncaster by the M18, mostly estates with drives, which makes it one of the easiest places we collect from. The driver reverses onto the drive, checks your ID and loads the car — twenty minutes — and the bank transfer follows once it is checked in at our yard, the same day for collections before 3pm.

Wide roads, off-street parking
Armthorpe was built for cars: wide roads, drives, easy access off the motorway at junction 4. Edenthorpe and Kirk Sandall next door are the same, and Cantley across the A18 is on the same run. The odd older street around Church Street is still an easy kerbside load. We group them all and normally offer next-day collection.
From businesses too
The units on the Armthorpe and Doncaster Carr estates send us vans and fleet cars regularly. We collect from business premises, price each vehicle from its registration, and invoice the company. Several to clear? Ring and we will do them in one run.
What we need from you
Where the car is, and whether it rolls. Tell us that when you book and the right lorry comes — the slide-bed and winch for a car that has sat, the ordinary lorry for one that moves. The registered keeper's photo ID and proof of address are checked on the drive; the V5C helps but is not essential.
Yard, certificate, DVLA
We are the Authorised Treatment Facility, so the car is depolluted and recycled at our own site in Mexborough and the Certificate of Destruction is issued from our own DVLA login. The DVLA is told you are no longer the keeper, which ends your tax and insurance liability.
Questions people in Armthorpe ask us
- How soon can you collect in Armthorpe?
- Usually next working day, grouped with Edenthorpe, Kirk Sandall and Cantley. We ring to confirm the day and the slot.
- Do you collect from business premises on the Armthorpe estates?
- Yes. Each vehicle is priced from its registration, collected free, and we invoice the company.
- What does the driver check?
- The registered keeper's photo ID and proof of address, and the car against what you told us. Then the car is loaded, and the bank transfer follows once the car is checked in at our yard — same day for collections before 3pm, next working day after that.
- How quickly can you collect a scrap car in Armthorpe?
- Armthorpe is 11 miles from our yard in Mexborough. You tell us the day that suits you when you book, and we ring to confirm the day and a morning or afternoon slot.
- Is collection in Armthorpe really free?
- Yes. There is no collection charge anywhere in Armthorpe (DN3) and no deduction on the day. The figure on your quote is the figure paid into your bank.
- Do I need the V5C logbook?
- It helps, but you can still scrap the car without it. We check your photo ID and proof of address instead, and as an Authorised Treatment Facility we issue the Certificate of Destruction and tell the DVLA that you are no longer the keeper.
- Can I get cash for my scrap car?
- No — paying cash for scrap vehicles has been illegal in England and Wales since 2013. We pay by bank transfer to the registered keeper once the car is checked in at our yard — the same day for collections before 3pm, next working day after that.
