How it works
- STEP 1
Send photographs
Snap the WEEE collection at your Shepreth 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 Shepreth. 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 WEEE collection from Shepreth is weighed and documented at a licensed facility afterwards.
What affects the price
WEEE Collection starts from £140. Your fixed price is confirmed once we have seen photographs.
- Volume — how much of the van the load actually fills
- 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

WEEE Collection FAQs
Is documentation provided?
Yes. Each Shepreth WEEE collection is documented so you can demonstrate the waste left your premises through a compliant route.
Can you collect from multiple sites?
Yes. Multi-site collections are scheduled and priced as one programme.
Can you handle difficult access?
Yes. Stairs, lifts, long carries, narrow lanes and permit bays are all workable at Shepreth 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 Shepreth vehicle, crew and disposal route correctly, so the price we quote for your WEEE 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 Shepreth collections is recycled, and only the residual fraction goes to final disposal.
Do I need to be there?
Not always. If the WEEE collection is accessible from outside at the Shepreth property, we can collect with photographs, written instructions and payment agreed in advance.
Is this cheaper than hiring a skip in Shepreth?
Frequently. There is no permit to buy, no driveway lost for a week, and you only pay for the space the waste actually occupies. For small and medium WEEE collection loads in Shepreth, a wait-and-load collection usually wins on both price and speed.
Which Shepreth postcodes do you cover for WEEE collection?
Yes. Our WEEE collection covers Shepreth. We also collect from neighbouring Meldreth (1.4 miles), Melbourn (2.2 miles) and Fowlmere (2.2 miles) — distances are straight-line from Shepreth. Send your postcode with photos on WhatsApp and we will confirm the fixed price before booking.

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