Two directions, one price
A Rawmarsh car can be quoted by yards coming up from Rotherham and by yards coming down from the Dearne Valley, and when both want it the figure rises. The site shows you the highest and the winning yard collects — usually next working day, often sooner.
Hills and handbrakes
Rawmarsh runs from Parkgate at the bottom up past the High Street to Sandhill and Ryecroft at the top, and plenty of its streets are steep. A car that has sat on a slope until the handbrake seized is one of the most common S62 jobs there is. Say so when you book and the driver brings the winch and the right lorry; it changes nothing about the price.
Parkgate and the estates
Parkgate's retail park and the old works site send the occasional van; the estates off Green Lane, Haugh Road and Kilnhurst Road send the cars. Terraced streets around Dale Road and the High Street mean kerbside loading, which the collectors do every week. Vans up to 3.5 tonnes are priced like cars and a business can be invoiced.
Licensed and paid within 24 hours
The registered keeper is paid by bank transfer within 24 hours of collection. Every collector is an Authorised Treatment Facility: the Certificate of Destruction is issued, the DVLA is told, and the car is recycled properly. MOT failures, non-runners, damaged cars and cars without a V5C are all priced the same way.

Absolutely hassle free just as advertised. Quick service, fast pay. Peace of mind.
So very easy , a few clicks , a phone call and all was taken care of. I treated my self with a take away the same night. Also best price I found and I compared 😂
Fantastic experience from enquiry through to collection. Payment made promptly and the communication was excellent. Highly recommended.
Questions
What people in Rawmarsh ask
Is Parkgate included with Rawmarsh?
Yes — Rawmarsh and Parkgate share S62 and are quoted together against the same collectors.
The handbrake is seized and the car is on a hill — will they still take it?
Yes, routinely. Tell us when you book so the driver brings the winch; it does not change the price.
How quickly can a Rawmarsh collection happen?
Usually next working day, and often the same day if you accept the price in the morning — the yards quoting for S62 are a few miles away in either direction.
When could you collect from Rawmarsh?
Quickly — the collector who takes Rawmarsh jobs is based nearby, not the other end of the country. Accept the price, they ring to agree a day, and the driver confirms before setting off.
Is there a collection fee in Rawmarsh?
No. Collection is free: the price on your quote is the price the collector pays, with the truck built in across S62. It only changes 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 the collector is required to check; the V5C is a bonus. Every collector on the network is an Authorised Treatment Facility, so the Certificate of Destruction and the DVLA notification follow either way.
How do you pay?
By bank transfer to the registered keeper, sent by the collector within 24 hours of collection. Cash is not an option — it has been illegal for scrap vehicles since 2013.
