Terraces, estates and villages
Brampton and Hasland are terraces with on-street parking; Newbold, Holme Hall, Grangewood and Loundsley Green are estates with drives; Walton, Wingerworth and Whittington are semis; the villages — Old Tupton, Grassmoor, Brimington, Staveley — run out in every direction. We collect from all of it at the same free collection and know which streets need the shorter lorry.
Vans from the trading estates
The estates on the Sheffield Road and Chatsworth Road sides, and around Whittington Moor, send us vans regularly. A van up to 3.5 tonnes is priced from its registration like a car, collected free, and invoiced to the business.
Junction 29 and the A61
The motorway and the A61 make Chesterfield a straightforward run, and it is grouped with Staveley, Clowne and Dronfield. Pick a day when you book, and a call from us confirms it and gives you a morning or afternoon slot. After checking the keeper's photo ID and proof of address the driver loads the car, 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.
Our ATF, not somebody else's
The lorry takes the car back to our own Authorised Treatment Facility in Mexborough, where it is depolluted and recycled. Our own DVLA login issues the Certificate of Destruction and the DVLA is notified that you are no longer the keeper. Failed MOT, non-runner, write-off — priced on weight and what is left on the car.
Questions people in Chesterfield ask us
- Do you cover the villages around Chesterfield?
- Yes — Brimington, Staveley, Wingerworth, Grassmoor, Old Tupton and Whittington are all on the same run at the same free collection.
- How soon can you collect in Chesterfield?
- Usually within two working days, grouped with Staveley, Clowne and Dronfield.
- Do you take vans from the Chesterfield trading estates?
- Yes. Vans to 3.5 tonnes get the same free collection, priced from the registration, and the business gets an invoice.
- How quickly can you collect a scrap car in Chesterfield?
- Chesterfield is 18 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 Chesterfield really free?
- Yes. There is no collection charge anywhere in Chesterfield (S40, S41, S42, S43, S45) 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.
