Mansfield by district

NG18 is the town centre, Oak Tree, Ladybrook and the south; NG19 is Mansfield Woodhouse, Forest Town and the north; NG21 is Rainworth and Blidworth out on the Southwell side. Terraces with kerbside parking near the centre, estates with drives everywhere else. We collect from all of it at the same free collection and know which streets need the shorter lorry.

Planned carefully, priced the same

Mansfield is the far end of our runs, so we group collections with Sutton, Kirkby and Shirebrook and a lorry is down every couple of days. That planning is our problem, not yours: the price is the car's real kerb weight, today's scrap rate and what is on it, identical to a Rotherham job, and it is paid to the registered keeper by bank transfer once the car has been checked in at our yard (same day if we collect before 3pm, next working day if later).

When the lorry arrives

You pick the day at booking and we phone to confirm it, with a morning or afternoon slot. He checks the registered keeper's photo ID and proof of address, checks the car against what you told us, loads it, 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. Vans from the Mansfield trading estates are priced like cars and can be invoiced.

Certificate of Destruction, from us

The car is depolluted and recycled at our Authorised Treatment Facility in Mexborough and the Certificate of Destruction is issued by us, with the DVLA told you are no longer the keeper. MOT failure, non-runner, write-off, no V5C: all collected, priced on what is there.

One of our recovery trucks collecting a car — Mansfield is 24 miles from the yard
Our own truck, our own driver. Mansfield is 24 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 Mansfield ask us

Is Mansfield inside your free collection area?
Mansfield is at the far edge. Enter your postcode — the longer run is already allowed for in the price the site shows for it, so what you see is what you get.
How soon can you collect in Mansfield?
Usually within two working days, grouped with Sutton-in-Ashfield, Kirkby and Shirebrook.
Do you cover Rainworth and Blidworth?
Yes — NG21 is collected with the rest of Mansfield.
When could you collect from Mansfield?
We are 24 miles away in Mexborough. If you need a specific day, say so when you book and we will do our best to fit it — we ring you to confirm.
Is there a collection fee in Mansfield?
No. Collection is free: the quote is the amount we pay and recovery is our cost across NG18, NG19, NG21. The only time a figure changes is if the car turns out to be missing something you told us it had.
Can you scrap it without the logbook?
Yes. Photo ID and proof of address are what we are required to check; the V5C is a bonus. We are the Authorised Treatment Facility, so the Certificate of Destruction and the DVLA notification come from us either way.
How do you pay?
By bank transfer to the registered keeper, sent once the car has been checked in at our yard: the same day if we collect before 3pm, the next working day if later. Cash is not an option — it has been illegal for scrap vehicles since 2013.
