Waste Calculator
If you’re not sure what size collection to book it’s no big deal. We can clear more or less waste on the day of collection.
We have however developed a waste calculator to help you get an idea of what size rubbish collection to order and an indication of the cost of removing your waste.
You can compare waste piles or add items individually using our bespoke calculator.

How we calculate cost
How we charge for waste collection
Understanding volume
We charge primarily based off of volume.
1y³ / 0.76m³ is 3ft x 3ft x 3ft or 0.91m x 0.91m x 0.91m which is roughly the same size as 2 domestic washing machines or 8 – 10 bin bags.
Waste can be broken down to reduce volume although there is a maximum weight limit which will apply.
Heavy and dense waste such as bricks, rubble and soil will be charged based off of estimated weight or we would recommend skip hire for these types of waste which we can provide on a next day basis
Weight
There are weight limits which are applied to our ‘man and van‘ clearance service and some of our skip bags.
We include up to 100 kg per y³ with our clearance service, as estimated by our truck teams on site.
As a guide bulky waste weighs around 50 – 75 kg where as heavy and dense waste such as bricks, rubble and soil can weigh anywhere from 250 kg – 1000 kg per y³.
Extra charges
Extra charges only apply to our clearance service as these items cannot be collected at all with skips or skip bags.
These are additional charges applied to the collection in addition to the volume and reflect the additional cost of disposing of these specialist items.
Other charges to consider
Labour
We include reasonable labour but a charge may apply if there is a reason which is causing the collection to take much longer than normal. This could include no parking anywhere near the property or access issues. This will always be advised upfront.
Parking
The customer does need to pay for parking or provide a suitable parking location. Parking is not normally an issue when we are loading but could be a consideration if you are located on a red route or very busy junction.
Frequently asked questions
Waste calculator FAQ's
Here are a few frequently asked questions we receive regarding collecting waste and our waste calculator.
What if there is a lot more waste on arrival?
We can usually clear as much rubbish as you like, so as long as you are satisfied with the cost this won’t be a hindrance. We’re happy to clear as much waste as you like or if you need time to think about the extra that’s fine too.
What if I get my estimate wrong?
We can clear most waste, so this isn’t a problem for us. If you got it badly wrong, or we helped with a quote and the scope wasn’t clear to us and there is a large variation in the cost, we will usually be able to offer a refund on the call out charge.
This is handled on a case by case basis and does depend on the circumstances, but we do appreciate sometimes it can be difficult to get 100% right or there can be a genuine misunderstanding.
Waste types accepted
Whilst this list is not definitive, we can remove the following:
- Bulky waste such as sofas, armchairs, beds, divans, tables, chairs, cupboards, and desks.
- Electrical waste (WEEE) such as lamps, bulbs, microwaves, ovens, cookers, computers, hair dryers, and toasters.
- Hazardous waste such as fluorescent tubes, fridges, freezers, TVs, and monitors although extra charges will usually apply.
- Bin bags, sacks, and black bags from homes and businesses.
- Garden waste such as clippings and garden furniture.
Prohibited waste types
There are some waste streams we cannot ordinarily remove due to health and safety or compliance, but if you contact us first we can usually provide a bespoke solution.
- Raw food and meat such as category 3 ABP waste.
- Licensed and unlicensed asbestos.
- Working around needles and sharps.
- Chemicals and solvents including most paints.
What happens to my waste once you remove it?
Once we collect your waste we will transfer it to a local commercial Waste Transfer Station. All of these local Waste Transfer Stations are audited by our compliance team, ensuring they conform to the highest environmental and health and safety standards.
From here the waste will be sorted and in most cases recycled. Across the country we average a landfill diversion rate exceeding 95%.
