A pit village of tight streets
Denaby is a former colliery village: rows of terraces off Doncaster Road and around the old pit site, with a few newer developments on the edges. On-street loading is normal here and we know which streets are tight. If the car is parked on the main road we time the collection to avoid the school run; if it is on a back street with corners, the shorter lorry comes.
What being this close means
A Denaby car booked in the morning is usually on our site by the afternoon. There is no run to build into the price and no waiting for a lorry to come back from the other side of the county; Conisbrough, a mile further on, is on the same short run. The driver checks the registered keeper's photo ID and proof of address, 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.
Bringing it to us
If the car drives and is legal to be on the road, bring it in: ring first so the paperwork is ready, drive the two minutes to Mexborough, and you are paid by bank transfer at the yard. The price is the same as a collection.
Recycled here, certificate from here
Because the yard is the Authorised Treatment Facility, the car is depolluted and recycled on our own site and the Certificate of Destruction is issued from our own DVLA login the same week. We tell the DVLA you are no longer the keeper, which ends your liability for tax and insurance. Cash for scrap has been illegal since 2013, so it is bank transfer — for everyone, every time.
Questions people in Denaby Main ask us
- How soon can a Denaby car be collected?
- Usually the same day — the yard is two minutes away. Book in the morning and ask when we ring to confirm.
- Can I just drive it to the yard?
- Yes, if it is legal to be on the road. Ring first, come down Doncaster Road, and you are paid by bank transfer while you wait.
- Do you need the V5C?
- No — it helps, but photo ID and proof of address for the registered keeper are what the law asks us to check. We issue the Certificate of Destruction and tell the DVLA either way.
- How soon can you get to Denaby Main?
- Denaby Main is only 2 miles from us in Mexborough. Pick a day when you book; we ring to confirm it, and whether it will be morning or afternoon.
- Do you charge for collection in Denaby Main?
- No. Collection is free — we do not charge for the truck, the driver or the fuel anywhere in DN12, and nothing comes off the price on the day unless the car is not as described.
- What if I have lost the V5C?
- You can still scrap the car. The law asks us to check who you are, not to see the logbook, so photo ID and proof of address are what matter. We issue the Certificate of Destruction and update the DVLA record ourselves.
- Do you pay cash?
- No, and nobody legally can: the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013 bans cash for scrap vehicles. 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.
