Scrap my car in Dinnington

Dinnington, Anston and Laughton-en-le-Morthen are at the southern end of the Rotherham borough on the A57 towards Worksop. It is a slightly longer run for us, so collections are usually within two working days, grouped with Worksop and Kiveton.

Another pit town, and the villages around it

Dinnington itself is terraces around the centre and Laughton Road, estates on the edges and the retail end at the top of town. North and South Anston along the A57 are semis and drives; Laughton is a village; Thurcroft is estates to the north. We cover the lot, and the lanes between, at the same free collection.

The Worksop run

Dinnington sits nearer Worksop than Rotherham town, so we group it with Worksop, Kiveton Park and the Sheffield east side and come out every couple of days. You pick the day at booking and we phone to confirm it, with a morning or afternoon slot. If the car is a non-runner, in a garage or on a farm track — there are a few round Laughton — mention it and the right lorry comes.

Same price, same process as anywhere

The quote is built from the car's actual kerb weight, today's scrap metal rate and what is on it. The driver checks the registered keeper's photo ID and proof of address, 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. The V5C helps but is not essential.

Back to Mexborough

The car is depolluted and recycled at our own Authorised Treatment Facility and the Certificate of Destruction is issued from our own DVLA login. We tell the DVLA you are no longer the keeper. MOT failures, non-runners, write-offs and 4x4s from the villages are all priced the same way.

Our own truck, our own driver. Dinnington is 9 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 Dinnington ask us

How long does a Dinnington collection take to arrange?
Usually within two working days — it is grouped with Worksop and Kiveton Park. We ring to confirm the day and the slot.
Do you cover Anston and Thurcroft?
Yes — North Anston, South Anston, Laughton, Thurcroft and the villages along the A57 are all on the same run at the same free collection.
Is the price lower because Dinnington is further from the yard?
No. Collection is free across the borough; the price is built from the car itself, not the distance.
How quickly can you collect a scrap car in Dinnington?
Dinnington is 9 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 Dinnington really free?
Yes. There is no collection charge anywhere in Dinnington (S25) 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.
