What changes the price?
- Volume — we charge by how much space your waste takes up in our 16-yard tipper, not by the hour.
- Heavy items — soil, rubble and plasterboard cost more to dispose of than mixed household waste.
- Access — third-floor walk-ups or long carry distances add a little time.
- Hazardous items — fridges, mattresses and paint require separate disposal and carry a small surcharge.
