Compact, terraced, quick
Bolton is a compact village — terraces and semis off Station Road, High Street and Furlong Road, with a fair amount of on-street parking and the newer housing towards the Dearne Valley Parkway. We load at the kerb here without fuss; the Parkway means the lorry is in and out in minutes, so there is nothing to build into the price for the journey.
Cars that have been sat
A lot of Bolton cars have been standing a while: flat tyres, seized brakes, a battery that gave up last winter. Tell us when you book. We bring the slide-bed lorry and winch it on; there is no extra charge for the winch, only a small non-runner adjustment that is shown on your quote before you accept it, so the figure never changes on the day.
The Dearne run
Bolton, Wath, Goldthorpe and Thurnscoe sit on one road, so we group them and a lorry is through most days. Choose a day when you book; we ring to confirm it and say whether the driver will be with you in the morning or the afternoon. The driver checks the registered keeper's ID, loads the car, and the bank transfer follows once the car has been checked in at our yard: same day if we collect before 3pm, next working day if later.
Done at our own yard
The car is depolluted and recycled at our Authorised Treatment Facility in Mexborough, the Certificate of Destruction is issued from our own DVLA login, and the DVLA is told you are no longer the keeper. MOT failures, non-runners and write-offs are priced the same way as anything else — on weight and what is left on the car.
Questions people in Bolton upon Dearne ask us
- Is there a charge for winching a non-runner in Bolton upon Dearne?
- No. The winch is part of the job. A non-runner gets a small adjustment that is shown on the quote before you accept, and nothing changes on the day.
- How soon can you collect?
- Usually next working day, often the same afternoon — Bolton is on the daily Dearne Valley run from the yard.
- Can I bring the car to Mexborough instead?
- If it drives and is legal to be on the road, yes. Ring first so the paperwork is ready and you are paid by bank transfer while you wait.
- When could you collect from Bolton upon Dearne?
- We are 2 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 Bolton upon Dearne?
- No. Collection is free: the quote is the amount we pay and recovery is our cost across S63. 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.
