Collection charges

Please note that fridges and freezers are charged for separately and cannot be included as part of the 1 to 5 items or 6 to 10 items charge.  This is because they have to be disposed of specially.

All items must be easily accessible at the front of your property.  We cannot collect from inside your property, garage or from the rear of the property.

We reserve the right not to collect and to re-quote for the collection. This may happen if the items are not as described. You do not have to go ahead with a re-quote - in which case we will refund your money. Any quote you receive will be valid for 30 days, after which we will remove it from our records.
