What's included

The heavy stuff, sorted to cost less

Commercial waste on the Island is charged by the tonne and by type. Separating it is where the saving is.

  • Racking and steel shelving

    Taken apart on site and sent for metal recycling.

  • Pallets and crates

    Usable ones set aside for reuse. Broken ones go with the timber.

  • Scrap, offcuts and fixings

    Metal and timber offcuts, old benches, jigs and storage units.

  • Card and shrink wrap

    The packaging mountain from deliveries, kept apart from general waste.

  • Drained, non-fixed machinery

    Once disconnected by a competent person and drained of oil and fuel.

  • A transfer note per load

    Describing the waste and who took it, for your duty of care.

Who we help

Units, workshops, yards and boatyards

  1. 1

    Photos of the unit

    Include the yard, the access and anything hazardous that needs collecting separately.

  2. 2

    A fixed price

    Agreed before booking, with any prep you need to do flagged up.

  3. 3

    Dismantle and sort

    Metal, timber, card and general waste kept apart as we load.

  4. 4

    Transfer note

    Each load to licensed facilities, with a note for your records.

Priced on weight, type and access

Units and yards vary enormously, so we price on what's actually there.

  1. 01Weight and typeScrap metal is free to dispose of. Mixed general waste costs ten times the rubble rate per tonne.
  2. 02VolumeMeasured in van loads, from a stockroom of pallets to a whole unit.
  3. 03DismantlingRacking, mezzanine shelving and benches that have to come apart.
  4. 04AccessRoller-door access is quick. Upper floors, narrow doors or a long carry take longer.

A fixed price before we start

  • Free, no-obligation quote
  • Priced from photos or a visit
  • Fixed before anything is booked
  • A transfer note with every load

Your options

Bin, your own van, or a clearance

For the same bags every week, a trade bin wins. For a unit's worth of racking and pallets, it doesn't.

Hazardous waste we don't carry

  • Oils, fuels and lubricants
  • Liquid solvents, paints and resins
  • Chemical drums
  • Batteries in bulk
  • Gas cylinders
  • Marine flares
  • Asbestos
  • Fluorescent tubes

These need a carrier registered for hazardous waste and a consignment note. Have them collected separately and we'll clear everything else. Expired flares are explosives: ask your chandler or the coastguard.

FAQ

Industrial waste questions

Short answers. If yours is not here, call or send it with your quote.

Do you take hazardous waste?

No. Oils, solvents, chemicals, batteries in bulk, gas cylinders and asbestos need a carrier registered for hazardous waste and a consignment note. Have those collected separately and we'll clear the rest.

Can you take old machinery?

Non-fixed machinery that two people can safely handle, yes, once disconnected by a competent person and drained of oil and fuel. Large fixed plant that needs lifting gear is outside what we do.

Do you dismantle pallet racking?

Yes. Racking and steel shelving is taken apart on site and goes for metal recycling, which also keeps the disposal cost down.

What happens to wooden pallets?

Pallets in usable condition are set aside for reuse. Broken ones go with the timber waste, kept apart from general waste.

Can you collect from a boatyard?

Yes, for non-hazardous waste such as timber, metal, old fittings, rope, canvas and packaging. Antifouling waste, resins, oils, batteries and flares need a specialist.

Will I get a waste transfer note?

Yes, for every collection. It describes the waste and who took it. Keep it for at least two years.
