Do you recycle waste?

Yes we are committed to responsible disposal and recycling wherever possible. We handle general waste, garden waste, and especially WEEE (electrical and electronic) items with care.  

  • For general household, garden or construction waste, items are taken to licensed facilities for processing.  

  • For electronics and electrical items (computers, monitors, appliances, etc.), North West Rubbish Clearance offers a dedicated recycling service: items are assessed, and where possible refurbished or dismantled so components can be recycled safely.  

see our Environmental Policy for more information. If you have a specific item you’re unsure about (furniture, hazardous waste, large appliances, etc.), just get in touch — we'll let you know whether it can be recycled or how it will be disposed of.

How much do you charge for waste collection?
