Hemsworth and the villages
Hemsworth is the town centre and Market Street, terraces off Barnsley Road, estates around the edges and the newer housing on the Kinsley side. Fitzwilliam and Kinsley are pit villages of terraces; Ackworth is a bigger village of stone houses and drives; Havercroft and Ryhill are on the Barnsley border. None of it costs anything to collect from.
Tell us where and whether it rolls
That is all the driver needs to bring the right lorry — the shorter one for the terraces, the winch for a car that has sat since last year. There is no charge for the winch, only the small non-runner adjustment shown on the quote before you accept.
Next working day
Hemsworth is on the run up through Royston and South Elmsall and a lorry is here most days. When you book you choose the day; we ring back to confirm it and give you a morning or afternoon window. The driver checks the registered keeper's photo ID and proof of address, gets the car on, 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.
Recycled in Mexborough
We depollute and recycle the car at our own Authorised Treatment Facility in Mexborough, issue the Certificate of Destruction from our own DVLA login and tell the DVLA you are no longer the keeper. Cars that have failed the MOT, will not start or have no V5C are all taken.
Questions people in Hemsworth ask us
- How soon can you collect in Hemsworth?
- Usually next working day — it is on the run with South Elmsall and Royston.
- Do you cover Ackworth and Kinsley?
- Yes — Hemsworth, Fitzwilliam, Kinsley, Ackworth, Havercroft and Ryhill are all on the same run at the same free collection.
- Is there a charge for a non-runner?
- No charge for the winch. A non-runner gets a small adjustment shown on the quote before you accept, and nothing changes on the day.
- How quickly can you collect a scrap car in Hemsworth?
- Hemsworth 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 Hemsworth really free?
- Yes. There is no collection charge anywhere in Hemsworth (WF9) 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.
