How it works
- STEP 1
Send photographs
Snap the general waste collection at your Earith address and send it on WhatsApp. Photographs are the single biggest factor in quote accuracy — the more you send, the tighter the fixed price.
- STEP 2
Receive a fixed price
We assess volume, weight and access, then confirm a written figure covering the agreed labour, transport and disposal requirements for your collection in Earith. Any change in scope is discussed before work continues.
- STEP 3
Choose your slot
Same-day, next-day, weekend and evening windows are offered subject to vehicle availability. You get a confirmed window rather than an all-day wait.
- STEP 4
We load and clear
The crew arrives with the correct vehicle, loads everything by hand, and sweeps up. The collected general waste collection from Earith is weighed and documented at a licensed facility afterwards.
What affects the price
General Waste Collection starts from £95. Your fixed price is confirmed once we have seen photographs.
- Weight — dense material such as rubble, soil and concrete costs more at the gate
- Waste type — recycling routes are cheaper than general disposal
- Access — stairs, long carries and restricted parking add labour time
- Timing — weekend, evening and emergency slots carry an uplift
- Location — travel beyond the included mileage is charged at the vehicle rate
- Volume — how much of the van the load actually fills

General Waste Collection FAQs
Can I book general waste collection without a contract?
Yes. Most Earith customers book ad hoc and repeat only when they need to. No minimum term, no exit fee.
What counts as general waste?
Non-hazardous, non-recyclable material — mixed packaging, contaminated cardboard, general refuse. If it is one clean stream, it usually prices lower as a recycled load.
How much does general waste collection cost in Earith?
General Waste Collection in Earith starts from £95. The final figure depends on volume, weight and access. Send photographs on WhatsApp and we confirm a fixed price rather than an hourly guess.
Can you handle difficult access?
Yes. Stairs, lifts, long carries, narrow lanes and permit bays are all workable at Earith properties — we just need to know in advance so the right crew and vehicle are sent.
Why do you ask for photographs?
Because guessing is how customers get stung. Photographs let us size the Earith vehicle, crew and disposal route correctly, so the price we quote for your general waste collection is the price you pay.
What happens to the waste after collection?
It goes to a licensed transfer station where it is separated. Recoverable material from Earith collections is recycled, and only the residual fraction goes to final disposal.
Do I need to be there?
Not always. If the general waste collection is accessible from outside at the Earith property, we can collect with photographs, written instructions and payment agreed in advance.
Which Earith postcodes do you cover for general waste collection?
Yes. Our general waste collection covers Earith. We also collect from neighbouring Bluntisham (1 miles), Needingworth (3.1 miles) and Swavesey (3.9 miles) — distances are straight-line from Earith. Send your postcode with photos on WhatsApp and we will confirm the fixed price before booking.

Moving as well as clearing in Earith?
Clearances often sit either side of a move. If you need the furniture that is staying taken to a new address in Earith, that is a removals job rather than a waste job — and it is priced separately.
