    Where your waste goes

Residents tipping themselves are directed to Tyseley (Kings Road), Perry Barr (Holford Drive), Sutton Coldfield (Norris Way), Castle Bromwich (Castle Vale), where residents need a booked slot and a permit for vans and larger trailers. Because we hold an upper-tier waste carrier licence, your load goes straight to a licensed transfer station instead — sorted for reuse, metal, timber, textiles and WEEE, with a digital waste transfer note issued the same day.

    About Alum Rock

    Alum Rock (B8, Birmingham, West Midlands) is densely-terraced East Birmingham neighbourhood with a lively Alum Rock Road high street. Ward End Park anchors the area, and the streets around it are built largely in Late-Victorian red brick, tarmac forecourts and concrete flagstones.

    That matters for rubbish & house clearance: traffic film from the A47 leaves stubborn black banding along kerbs and steps. Roughly 61% of the housing stock here pre-dates the war and 74% is flats or terraces, so our crews plan for stair turns, shared entries and tight kerbside loading rather than assuming driveway access.

    We work Alum Rock alongside Aston, Erdington, Ladywood, Birmingham, which keeps travel time short and lets us hold morning and afternoon slots in the same B8 run.
