Having assessed the classification of each waste stream requiring removal, we offer safe and cost effective waste disposal methods for hazardous waste disposal at registered sites.
Our purpose-built covered waste handling facilities also house a dedicated team fully-trained in the segregating and processing of many types of specialist waste and we are approved for handling, separating and processing electronic equipment waste as classified under the WEEE Directive.
Types of hazardous waste we can collect or receive includes:

Our skip sizes range from four to 12 cubic yards which provide a very cost-effective way to dispose of bulky waste including furniture and garden waste. For a skip that will be placed on the road, there will be an extra charge of £50.00 (per week) added for a permit from the council. If a permit is required, it takes 3 days to obtain permission from the local authority so factor this in when you’re planning the hire of your skip.
To help you decide which size skip would be best for you, please refer to our waste skip sizes guide pages. We’ve included skip sizes in yards and skip capacity m3 to give you a good idea of what will fit in each skip.
Hazardous waste is any type of waste that could be at all harmful to people, animals, or the environment if it’s not dealt with properly.
The term covers a wide range of items, which could be anything from asbestos and oily rags to old paint, contaminated liquids, chemicals, and electrical items like batteries and fridges.
Hazardous waste can be classed as hazardous because it’s flammable, toxic, corrosive, or otherwise dangerous. This means that these items need to be handled very carefully and disposed of in the right way.
If you're unsure whether something counts as hazardous waste, just give us a call on 01304 626364 or send a few details over using our online contact form – we can help you work it out.
Disposing of hazardous waste isn’t just a case of throwing it in a skip or taking it to your local tip – there are very strict rules in place for how it should be handled.
First, the waste needs to be identified and classified properly. We do this using something called the EWC code system, which helps make sure everything is sorted and recorded correctly.
Once that’s done, we’ll collect the waste using our licensed vehicles and take it to a registered facility. Here, it will be either treated, recycled, or disposed of safely.
Every step is logged so that you have full paperwork and proof that your hazardous waste has been dealt with properly.
If you have any questions about how we will dispose of your hazardous waste, give us a call on 01304 626364 - we’ll be happy to talk you through it.
Yes, we can. A lot of people assume that hazardous waste just means things like asbestos or paint tins, but it also includes liquid waste – including oils, solvents, or contaminated water.
Whether it’s in drums, containers, or tanks, we’ve got the right equipment and expertly trained team to collect and transport your hazardous waste safely and legally.
We also deal with solids like mastic tubes, chemicals, or other industrial materials.
If you're not sure how to store your hazardous waste or what type of container to use, we can advise on that too. Just give us a call on 01304 626364 or send us a message using our online contact form and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
We do, and we’re fully licensed to handle both.
Asbestos, in particular, needs to be treated with extreme care because of the serious health risks it can pose.
Our team has the right training and protective equipment to remove and dispose of it safely.
We also handle electrical waste under the Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive – that includes fridges, freezers, fluorescent tubes, monitors, and similar items. These can’t be thrown away with general rubbish and must be broken down into separate parts for proper processing. We’ve got the facilities to do that in line with the regulations.
If your business produces any kind of hazardous waste, even just now and then, you’re legally responsible for managing it properly – this is known as your ‘duty of care’.
That means you have to store it safely, label it correctly, keep records, and make sure it’s collected and disposed of by a licensed company.
You also need to keep consignment notes and make sure you’re not mixing hazardous and non-hazardous waste together.
It might sound complicated, but we can take care of most of that for you and help you stay fully compliant. If you need any advice or guidance, just give our helpful team a call on 01304 626364.
In most cases, we can arrange collection of your hazardous waste within a few working days.
If it’s a more urgent job or you’ve got a tight deadline to clear the site, let us know and we’ll do our best to work something out.
We’ve got our own fleet of vehicles and trained operatives, so we’re not relying on third parties to get things moving.
For ongoing work or larger sites, we can also set up a regular collection schedule that fits around your project.
To book your hazardous waste collection, just give us a call on 01304 626364.
Yes, it might surprise you to know that quite a lot of hazardous waste can actually be recycled, depending on what it is.
For example, batteries, fluorescent tubes, solvents, and oil-based paints often contain materials that can be recovered and reused.
We always look at whether recycling your hazardous waste is an option first – not just because it’s better for the environment, but because it can sometimes reduce disposal costs too.
Of course, not everything can be recycled safely, but in the cases where it can, we make sure it is.
To give you an accurate quote, we just need a bit of information: what kind of hazardous waste you have, roughly how much of it there is, where it’s located, and whether there’s anything unusual about the site (like limited access or special storage needs).
If it’s a straightforward job, we can usually price it up quickly. If it’s more complex, or there’s a mix of different waste types, we might suggest a quick site visit to make sure we understand exactly what’s needed. Either way, we’ll keep things clear and upfront – no hidden charges or vague estimates.
