Can you collect the same day?
We offer a rapid response and work seven days a week. Same-day collections depend on the job and current availability. Call or send photos to ask.
What waste is not accepted?
Asbestos, clinical waste and hazardous waste are not accepted. Tell us about electrical equipment, upholstered items and unfamiliar materials so their handling can be confirmed.
Do you supply skips?
Skip hire is not advertised as a direct service here. Ask about a waste collection and loading arrangement instead.
Can you dismantle a conservatory?
Yes, conservatory dismantling and removal is an advertised service. The roof, frame, glazing, walls, base, utilities and making-good requirements should all be discussed rather than assumed to be included.
Do you need photos before visiting?
Photos help with the initial enquiry. Some jobs still need further assessment, measurements or a visit before the final scope and price can be confirmed.
How do I pay?
Ask Waste Wise to confirm accepted payment methods and payment timing in the quotation.
