The precise nature of the Services, including type of waste, volume, collection point and timing, will be agreed during the booking process.
The Company will use reasonable care and skill when providing the Services and will seek to dispose of collected waste in a lawful and environmentally responsible manner, in accordance with applicable UK waste management legislation and local authority requirements.
3. Booking Process
3.1 Bookings can be made by telephone, email, online form or any other method offered by the Company. When placing a booking, the Customer must provide accurate and complete information about the type and quantity of waste, the collection address, access arrangements, and any other relevant details requested by the Company.
3.2 The Company will confirm acceptance of the booking by issuing a confirmation, which may be provided verbally, by email, or in writing. A Contract is formed only when the Company confirms the booking. The Company reserves the right to refuse any booking at its discretion.
3.3 For certain services, such as large-scale clearances or ongoing commercial collections, the Company may issue a written quotation or proposal. Unless otherwise stated, quotations are valid for 30 days from the date of issue and may be withdrawn or revised at any time before acceptance.
3.4 The Customer is responsible for ensuring that all information supplied during the booking process is correct. Additional charges may apply if, upon arrival, the waste differs significantly in type or quantity from that described, or if access is restricted beyond what was notified to the Company at the time of booking.
4. Access and Customer Obligations
4.1 The Customer must ensure that the Company has safe, reasonable and unobstructed access to the collection point at the agreed date and time. This includes arranging any necessary parking, permits, keys, codes or on-site contacts in advance.
4.2 Waste must be presented in a manner that is safe for handling and transportation, and in accordance with instructions provided by the Company. Where waste is to be bagged or contained, the Customer must ensure that containers are secure and not overfilled.
4.3 The Customer must not present for collection any waste that is hazardous, explosive, toxic, medical, radioactive, corrosive or otherwise restricted under UK waste regulations, unless the Company has expressly agreed in writing to handle such materials and the Customer has provided all required documentation and packaging.
4.4 The Customer warrants that they are either the owner of the waste or are authorised by the owner to arrange its removal and disposal. The Customer agrees to indemnify the Company against any claim arising from removal of waste where this warranty is false.
5. Payments and Charges
5.1 Charges for the Services will be communicated at the time of booking, either as a fixed price or as an estimate based on the information provided by the Customer. Where pricing is based on volume, weight or time on site, the final price may be adjusted on completion of the collection.
5.2 Unless otherwise agreed, payment is due in full on or before completion of the collection. The Company may require payment in advance for certain services, including but not limited to large or complex clearances, out-of-hours work, or where the Customer does not have an established account.

6.2 Where the Customer cancels more than 24 hours before the scheduled collection time, any pre-paid charges may be refunded, less any reasonable administrative costs incurred by the Company. Refunds will be made using the original payment method where possible.
6.3 Where the Customer cancels within 24 hours of the scheduled collection time, arrives late for a timed appointment, or fails to provide access at the agreed time, the Company reserves the right to charge a cancellation fee or a call-out charge up to the full quoted price, to cover costs reasonably incurred.
6.4 The Company may, on reasonable notice wherever possible, cancel or reschedule the Services due to operational constraints, vehicle breakdown, staff availability, health and safety concerns, severe weather or other circumstances beyond its reasonable control. In such cases, the Company will seek to offer an alternative time or a refund for any pre-paid Services not provided. The Company will not be liable for any indirect losses arising from such cancellation or rescheduling.

8.4 While the Company will take reasonable care when carrying out the Services, minor damage may occur when moving bulky items or accessing confined spaces. The Company will not be liable for damage to floors, walls, paths, driveways, gates or fixtures where such damage arises from the normal performance of the Services and where reasonable care has been exercised.
8.5 If the Company is found liable for any loss or damage to the Customer, that liability will in all circumstances be limited to the amount paid or payable by the Customer for the specific Services giving rise to the claim, unless a different limit is mandated by law.
9. Customer Property and Site Conditions
