The town and the villages

Bawtry itself is straightforward: mostly drives, a few streets around the market place. The villages are where it gets interesting — Austerfield, Misson, Scrooby, Everton and the lanes towards Finningley. If the car is on a farm, in a barn or on unmade ground, tell us and we bring a lorry that can cope; it happens a lot round here and it is no problem when we know in advance.

When we come

Bawtry collections are usually within two working days. The booking asks for a day; we confirm it by phone and tell you whether the driver is coming in the morning or the afternoon. The driver checks the keeper's ID and a proof of address, winches or drives the car on, and the money is sent once the car has been checked in at our yard: same day if we collect before 3pm, next working day if later.

What the car is worth

Its actual kerb weight from the registration lookup, today's scrap metal rate, and what is on it. Bawtry sends us a fair number of 4x4s and pick-ups from the villages, which weigh well and price accordingly. If a car looks worth more than scrap, we say so.

Handled at our own site

The car is depolluted and recycled at our own Authorised Treatment Facility in Mexborough, the Certificate of Destruction is issued from our own DVLA login the same week, and the DVLA is told you are no longer the keeper. Lost the V5C? Photo ID and proof of address are what we need.

Our own truck, our own driver. Bawtry is 12 miles from the yard in Mexborough, so the lorry that collects is the one that takes the car back to our site.

Questions people in Bawtry ask us

Can you collect a car from a farm near Bawtry?
Yes — tell us where it is and whether it rolls, and we bring a lorry that can get to it. Barns, yards and unmade tracks are all routine.
How quickly can you collect in Bawtry?
Usually within two working days, grouped with Tickhill, Rossington and Harworth.
Do you cover the Nottinghamshire side — Misson, Scrooby, Everton?
Yes, the villages either side of the border are on the same run at the same free collection.
When could you collect from Bawtry?
We are 12 miles away in Mexborough. If you need a specific day, say so when you book and we will do our best to fit it — we ring you to confirm.
Is there a collection fee in Bawtry?
No. Collection is free: the quote is the amount we pay and recovery is our cost across DN10. The only time a figure changes is if the car turns out to be missing something you told us it had.
Can you scrap it without the logbook?
Yes. Photo ID and proof of address are what we are required to check; the V5C is a bonus. We are the Authorised Treatment Facility, so the Certificate of Destruction and the DVLA notification come from us either way.
How do you pay?
By bank transfer to the registered keeper, sent once the car has been checked in at our yard: the same day if we collect before 3pm, the next working day if later. Cash is not an option — it has been illegal for scrap vehicles since 2013.
