Forest villages
New Ollerton is estates with drives built for the pit; Old Ollerton around the mill and the church is older; Boughton is next door; Edwinstowe by the forest is a village of stone houses and newer estates. Beyond them are the lanes towards Tuxford, Bilsthorpe and Clipstone. Cars out here are often on drives, in yards or on farms — tell us where and whether it moves, and the right lorry comes.
The far edge
Ollerton is grouped with Mansfield and the Dukeries villages, and a lorry is down every couple of days. Book for the day that suits you and we call to confirm it and tell you whether to expect the lorry before or after lunch. Registered keeper's photo ID and proof of address checked, the car loaded, and the transfer sent once the car is checked in at our yard (same day for collections before 3pm, next working day after that).
What it is worth
The car's real kerb weight, today's scrap metal rate and what is on it. The villages send us 4x4s and pick-ups, which weigh well; if a car looks worth more than scrap, we say so rather than quietly paying the metal price.
Our yard issues the certificate
Depolluted and recycled at our own Authorised Treatment Facility in Mexborough, the car is finished with a Certificate of Destruction from our own DVLA login and the DVLA told you are no longer the keeper.
Questions people in Ollerton ask us
- Is Ollerton inside your free collection area?
- Yes — collection is free. Ollerton is at the far edge of our area, so the distance is already allowed for in the price the site shows for your postcode; nothing is added on the day, and the quote is the figure paid into your bank.
- Do you cover Edwinstowe, Boughton and Bilsthorpe?
- Yes — the Dukeries villages are collected with Ollerton on the same run.
- Can you collect from a farm?
- Yes. Say where the vehicle is and whether it rolls when you book and we send a lorry that can get to it.
- How quickly can you collect a scrap car in Ollerton?
- Ollerton is 23 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 Ollerton really free?
- Yes. There is no collection charge anywhere in Ollerton (NG22) 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.
