About TW Services
TW Services was formed in 1995 to provide a reliable and cost effective waste management service. Originally based in Thanet in Kent, the company ethos of ‘First Class Service’ soon proved successful.
Growth has been achieved by concentrating on reliability and constant reinvestment in new facilities, vehicles and machinery.
Originally starting as a skip hire company we soon introduced the associated services of roll on roll off containers, tippers and grab lorries.
Today we have a workforce of more than 120 skilled staff. With a comprehensive range of waste handling services, materials supply, an extensive range of modern machinery and equipment.
Our 20 acre site at Richborough Hall is a dynamic recycling, renewable waste management facility capable of processing 750,000 tonnes of waste per annum.
Our continual investment and drive is still evident as in January 2016 saw the commissioning of our new soil wash plant facility at our Richborough Park site. The TW RecoPro facility will screen, wash and stockpile an additional 180,000 tonnes of recovered products a year back into the Kent Construction Industry. With over 2 decades of experience, we will continue to focus our business away from the disposal of everyday waste towards a far higher level of resource efficiency and the recovery of materials. With this and a strong focus on our staff and the surrounding community, the management team will continue to pride themselves on their commitment to not only protecting the environment but also the people within it.
A brief history of TW Services
Past
With a long history in the demolition industry, TW Services was formed in 1995 to provide a more reliable and cost effective waste management service. Originally based in Thanet, the company ethos of ‘First Class Service’ soon proved successful and growth has been achieved by concentrating on reliability and constant reinvestment in new facilities and plant. From the original skip service developed the associated Rolonof bins and grab loader services.
Present
Today TW Services has an employed workforce of more than 80 skilled staff, delivering a comprehensive range of waste handling services and materials supply and has an extensive range of modern plant and equipment. The site at Richborough has evolved over 20 acres into a dynamic recycling, renewable waste management company capable of processing 750,000 tonnes of waste per annum. Treating waste as a valuable resource, from which by-products can be recovered as secondary materials, all of the waste materials collected are either re-used, recycled or recovered for their energy content ensuring that no waste goes to landfill.And future

Frequently Asked Questions
Our quotes are based on the size of the skip you need, the frequency of skip collections and replacements, the type of waste we will collect, and location. We don’t have a set price list because we want to give you an accurate cost considering all these factors. Fill in our form to hire a skip or contact us to speak to an advisor.
We collect all kinds of rubbish in various environments and projects. There’s no set cost to rubbish collection. Get in touch with us to get a quote. We base our prices on your location, the volume and type of rubbish, and other factors. We offer competitive prices for all rubbish collection jobs and work to meet your needs.
Waste management encompasses all the stages required to deal with waste to minimise its effect on people and the environment, from its creation to its final disposal. Businesses have certain responsibilities called a ‘duty of care’ enforced by the Environmental Agency to hold them accountable for the waste they produce.
These duties involve ensuring hazardous waste is dealt with by trained specialists and disposed of properly, that those recycling requirements are met to protect the environment from undue damage, and that all waste disposal is recorded and traceable.
Contact us for a quote on commercial waste collection. We’ll endeavour to provide you with the best deal we can. We take various factors into consideration in waste management quotations, primarily the volume and type of waste, the number of collections needed, the location, and whether it’s a one-off job or a recurring collection.
This depends on the volume of material being produced and how often you want your skip to be removed and replaced with an empty one. A one-room house renovation might only require a 4 yard skip, whereas a commercial construction project would suit a larger 12 yard skip every two weeks until completion of the project. See our skip hire page for more details on the sizes of our skips and what they can be used for.
Hiring a grab lorry is an excellent alternative to a skip if you prefer that waste material be collected directly from your site. You might choose not to use a skip because there isn’t sufficient space or the site is too complex. Operations might make a grab lorry more efficient or cost-effective. Contact us to get started on a quote for grab lorry hire. We’ll ask questions about the sort of waste material to be collected, its volume, the location and the site's layout. Once we have an idea of the work involved, we can provide a quote.
Waste is ‘hazardous’ when it poses a threat to human or animal health or could damage the environment. These ‘hazards’ posed can have effects that are toxic, flammable, irritant, explosive, corrosive, and so on. There are many different types of hazardous waste; not all are disposed of in the same way.
Some waste items, like freezers, need to be broken down into their separate components and these components disposed of individually. Disposing of hazardous waste together with general waste can cause non-hazardous waste streams to become contaminated, leading to environmental damage and wasted resources.
For businesses and individuals, disposing of hazardous waste means hiring a licensed specialist who can handle the waste properly. This means classifying it, collecting it, transporting it, and disposing of it. Many types of hazardous waste can’t go to landfill and even storing them needs to be carefully planned and monitored.
Some types of hazardous waste are recyclable, which we always aim to do at TW services. For example, oil-based paints, batteries, butane tanks, and fluorescent lightbulbs can all be recycled.
