Your Waste & Our Environmental Policy
Q: Where does my waste go after you collect it?
A: We take our environmental responsibility very seriously. All waste is transported to a licensed waste transfer station where it is meticulously sorted. We prioritise recycling and reuse, aiming to divert as much as possible from landfill.
Q: Will I get documentation to prove my waste was disposed of correctly?
A: Yes. We provide a waste transfer note for every collection. This is your legal record and proof that you have fulfilled your Duty of Care by entrusting your waste to a legitimate and compliant carrier.
Q: What areas do you cover?
A: We are based in Wigan and primarily serve the North West of the UK. For specific service areas or a quote for a location outside our standard coverage, please contact us directly.
Q: How much does your service cost?
A: Our pricing is based on the type and volume of waste, the nature of the job, and the location. We provide free, no-obligation quotes after an initial consultation, which may include a site visit for larger or more complex jobs. Our pricing is transparent, with no hidden fees.
Q: How quickly can you respond to a request?
A: We pride ourselves on a fast and reliable service. For urgent jobs like fly-tip clearance or rubbish removal, we aim to respond as quickly as possible. Please contact us to check our availability.
Q: Do I need to be present during the clearance?
A: For most clearances, it is helpful for you to be present at the start to guide our team, but you do not need to stay for the entire duration. We will agree on the scope of work beforehand and can arrange for keys to be returned once the job is complete.
Q: What is the largest item you can remove?
A: We are equipped to handle a wide range of items, from small household waste to large pieces of furniture, appliances, and even dismantled sheds. If you have a particularly large or heavy item, please mention it during your initial enquiry so we can prepare accordingly.
Q: How do you ensure my waste is recycled?
A: We work closely with a network of licensed recycling and disposal facilities. Our sorting process separates materials like plastics, metals, paper, wood, and green waste into their respective streams to be recycled or composted. We are committed to achieving high recycling rates on every job.
Q: What happens to items that can't be recycled?
A: For the small amount of waste that cannot be recycled or reused, we ensure it is disposed of responsibly. This may include sending it to an Energy from Waste (EfW) facility, which converts residual waste into energy, further reducing the need for landfill.
