Three villages by the motorway
Clowne is estates off Mill Street and the older streets around the centre; Barlborough is a village with the M1 junction and the Barlborough Links estate next door; Creswell is the colliery village with the famous crags and the terraces around the Model Village. We collect from all three and the lanes between at the same free collection.
Quick run, grouped
Junction 30 makes Clowne a quick run from Mexborough, and it is grouped with Staveley, Chesterfield and Bolsover. Tell us which day when you book and we ring to confirm it and whether the driver will be with you in the morning or the afternoon. Tell us where the car is and whether it rolls and we bring the right lorry.
On the day
The driver looks at the registered keeper's photo ID and proof of address, checks the car matches what you told us, loads it, 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. A V5C helps, though it is not essential. A car in a garage or one that has sat since last year just needs mentioning in advance; the winch costs nothing extra.
We are the treatment facility
The car is depolluted and recycled by us, at our own Authorised Treatment Facility in Mexborough, and the Certificate of Destruction goes out from our own DVLA login with the DVLA told you are no longer the keeper.
Questions people in Clowne ask us
- How soon can you collect in Clowne?
- Usually within two working days — junction 30 makes it a quick run, grouped with Staveley and Bolsover.
- Do you cover Creswell and Barlborough?
- Yes — Clowne, Barlborough, Creswell and the lanes between are on the same run at the same free collection.
- What if the car is in a garage?
- Tell us when you book and the driver brings the kit to pull it out. No extra charge.
- How quickly can you collect a scrap car in Clowne?
- Clowne is 15 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 Clowne really free?
- Yes. There is no collection charge anywhere in Clowne (S43) 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.
