Waste Collection

london-waste-collection

At Go RubbishGo Ltd., we deliver dependable, fully compliant waste collection services across London for households, businesses and managed properties. When waste exceeds regular bin capacity or involves bulky, mixed or time-sensitive materials, a professional collection keeps sites safe, tidy and lawful.

Our service is designed to be flexible and straightforward. We collect waste directly from where it’s located, handle all lifting, and ensure responsible processing—so you can focus on getting on with your day.

What Is Waste Collection?

Waste collection is the organised removal of unwanted materials from a property or site, followed by transport to authorised facilities for recycling, recovery or disposal. It covers a broad range of waste streams that aren’t suitable for routine bin services.

Our waste collection service provides an end-to-end solution: assessment, safe handling, removal and compliant processing in line with UK regulations.

Who Our Waste Collection Service Is For

We support a wide range of customers throughout London:

  • Homeowners with excess or bulky waste
  • Tenants preparing for inspections or move-outs
  • Landlords and letting agents managing turnovers
  • Businesses with irregular or surplus waste
  • Builders and trades clearing sites
  • Property and facilities managers

From one-off collections to complex clearances, we tailor the service to your access, schedule and waste type.

  • White goods and electrical equipment
  • Office furniture and commercial waste

How Our Waste Collection Works

  1. Book your collection — Choose a convenient date and time.
  2. On-site assessment — We confirm volume, access and waste type.
  3. Safe loading — Our trained team handles all lifting and carrying.
  4. Immediate removal — Waste is taken away in one organised visit.
  5. Compliant processing — Materials go to authorised facilities.

There’s no need to move items outside or pre-sort. We manage the entire process efficiently and safely.

Transparent Pricing With No Hidden Fees

Waste collection pricing is based on the volume and type of waste collected, along with access considerations. This flexible model ensures you only pay for the space your waste occupies in our vehicle.

All costs are agreed upfront. There are no hidden charges for labour, lifting, stairs or disposal—giving you clarity before work begins.

Why Professional Waste Collection Is Better Than DIY or Council Options

DIY disposal often involves vehicle hire, heavy lifting, multiple trips and uncertainty around what facilities will accept. Council services are limited in capacity, frequency and scope.

Our professional service clears everything in one visit, reduces physical strain and ensures waste is handled correctly and lawfully—saving time and avoiding unnecessary hassle.

Legal Compliance and Duty of Care

All waste must be handled according to UK law. We operate as a licensed waste carrier and comply fully with regulations governing collection, transport and disposal.

Using a compliant provider supports your Duty of Care, protecting you from liability if waste is fly-tipped or mishandled after collection.

Recycling-First Approach and Landfill Reduction

We prioritise recycling and recovery wherever possible. Materials such as cardboard, metal, wood, electrical items and green waste are separated and diverted from landfill.

Only non-recyclable waste is disposed of at authorised sites, helping reduce environmental impact while maintaining efficient collections.

Experienced, Insured and Professional Teams

Our teams are fully trained and insured, with experience across domestic and commercial environments. We work carefully within properties and shared spaces, protecting floors, walls and access routes throughout the process.

Professional standards, reliability and responsible waste handling underpin every job we undertake.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does waste collection cost?

Costs depend on the volume and type of waste, plus access conditions. Pricing is based on the space the waste occupies in our vehicle, providing a fair and flexible approach. All charges are confirmed before work begins, with no hidden fees for labour, lifting or disposal.

Do you offer same-day waste collection in London?

Same-day collections are often available across London, subject to availability and location. This is ideal for urgent situations such as inspections, move-outs or unexpected waste build-ups. We’ll confirm the earliest possible attendance when you get in touch.

Is your waste collection service legally compliant?

Yes. We are a licensed waste carrier and operate fully within UK waste regulations. All collected waste is taken to authorised facilities, supporting your Duty of Care and ensuring lawful processing.

What happens to the waste after collection?
