Scrap my car in Harworth
Harworth and Bircotes are one place in practice — a colliery village just over the Nottinghamshire border off the A1, with terraces, estates and the newer housing on the old pit land. Collections go out with Bawtry and Tickhill, usually within two working days.

One village, two names
Harworth is the older part around the church and Scrooby Road; Bircotes is the colliery housing — terraces and estates built for the pit — with the new estates going up on the old colliery site. Access is fine throughout and kerbside loading in the terraces is routine. Tell us where the car is and whether it rolls.
The A1 units
The industrial units by the A1 junction send us vans and trucks. Up to 3.5 tonnes, a van is priced from the registration like any car, collected free, with an invoice for the business. Anything heavier, ring us and we will price it.
Grouped with Bawtry
Harworth goes out with Bawtry, Tickhill and Rossington, so a lorry is on this side every couple of days. Choose a day when you book and we phone to confirm it and say when in the day the driver will arrive. The driver confirms 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.
Our own ATF
Once the car is back at our own Authorised Treatment Facility in Mexborough it is depolluted and recycled, the Certificate of Destruction is issued from our own DVLA login and the DVLA closes your keeper record. A failed MOT, a car that will not start or a missing V5C is no bar to collection.
Questions people in Harworth ask us
- How soon can you collect in Harworth?
- Usually within two working days, grouped with Bawtry, Tickhill and Rossington.
- Is Bircotes covered?
- Yes — Harworth and Bircotes are collected together at the same free collection.
- Do you take vans from the A1 industrial units?
- Yes — vans up to 3.5 tonnes are quoted from the registration, collected free, with an invoice if the business needs one.
- How quickly can you collect a scrap car in Harworth?
- Harworth is 11 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 Harworth really free?
- Yes. There is no collection charge anywhere in Harworth (DN11) 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.
