Additional charge FAQs

  • Why do some items cost extra?

    Some items need separate disposal routes, extra handling or specialist processing. Mattresses, fridges, tyres, paint, pressurised containers and upholstered seating are the common examples.

  • Are these prices added to the load-size price?

    Yes. The load-size price covers standard mixed waste volume. Any selected specialist item is added to that estimate so the quote request is clearer before collection.

  • What if my item is not listed?

    Send photos before booking. The team will confirm whether the item can go in a standard load, needs a specialist charge or requires a separate disposal route.

  • Can upholstered sofas and chairs be mixed with normal waste?

    Waste upholstered domestic seating may contain POPs and is handled separately. It should be declared before collection so the correct disposal route can be planned.
