Overview

How it works
Step 1
Send a few photos of the pile or the room and the volume is confirmed against real reference points, not guessed.
Step 2
One figure covering volume, tip gate fee and any access cost, with our carrier registration number on it.
Step 3
Most postcodes have a next-day slot; same-day is usually available if you call before mid-morning.
Step 4
The crew carries everything out and loads the van — you are not asked to help unless you want to.
Step 5
Site, weight and date confirmed the same day, which is what a landlord or the council asks for if waste is ever traced.
Why choose us
One person and a car for boot-loads; two crew and a 3.5-tonne Luton for anything from a quarter-load upward. A13 and Lower Lea Crossing red routes; new blocks require booked docks and lifts.
Next-day slots are standard across every borough, and same-day collection is usually available if booked before mid-morning. Canning Town (Jubilee, DLR) is the nearest station, so a E16 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in E16, often with surface conduit — the pattern behind 14,847 households inside the E16 neighbourhood in E16, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — and with 28% one-person households in Canning Town, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Registered upper-tier waste carrier with the Environment Agency. A waste transfer note is issued for every collection, which is the document that protects you if rubbish is later found fly-tipped — liability for the waste otherwise sits with whoever produced it, not the person who took it away.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Boot-load of mixed rubbish | £40 | 15–30 min | Priced for a small car boot's worth — bin bags, packaging and small offcuts that do not justify a van visit. |
| Quarter-load (approx. 3 cubic yards) | £95 | 30–60 min | Charged on the volume the rubbish takes in the van, weighed against the transfer station's gate rate. |
| Half-load (approx. 6 cubic yards) | £165 | 45–90 min | A typical loft, garage or shed's worth of mixed general waste, loaded by hand from wherever it sits. |
| Full Luton load (approx. 12 cubic yards) | £300 | 1.5–3 hrs | Full van and the transfer-station charge, with the waste transfer note issued the same day. |
| Two-van full load | £560 | 3–5 hrs | Where one van cannot take the volume in a single trip; two crews run in parallel rather than one van doing two runs. |
| Rubbish removal with same-day booking | +£25 | Within hours | A dispatch premium for slotting a same-day job between booked collections rather than a next-day charge. |

The cleaners Constantin and arrived in time and never stopped until the work was completed to the best of their ability.
