Rubbish Removal Erdington

Erdington mixes interwar semis on Kingsbury Road and Reservoir Road with dense terraces around the High Street and a large private rental market off Sutton Road. Garden clearances and end-of-tenancy loads make up most of what we collect here.

The Castle Bromwich household recycling centre serving this side of the city runs a booking system and a van-and-trailer permit scheme, which is why so many B23 and B24 households book a collection instead. We work Erdington several times a week, so same-day slots here are usually available even at short notice.

A collection in Erdington works the same way every time. You send photos of the waste on WhatsApp or describe it over the phone, we give you a fixed price before we set off, and a two-person crew arrives in an agreed window near Erdington High Street. Nothing needs dragging outside first — we collect from the loft, cellar, garage, garden or an upper floor with no lift, and there is no surcharge for stairs, long carries, evenings, weekends or bank holidays.

We take almost all non-hazardous waste in Erdington: bagged household rubbish, garden and green waste, sofas, mattresses, beds, wardrobes and flat-pack furniture, fridges, freezers, washing machines and cookers, televisions and electricals, carpets and underlay, cardboard and packaging, shed and garage contents, and builders' rubble from renovations. We cannot take asbestos, clinical waste, chemicals, solvents, paint, gas cylinders or tyres in a general load — those need specialist disposal, which we can arrange separately.

Everything collected in Erdington is sorted at our transfer station rather than tipped as a mixed load. Metals go to a scrap merchant, timber is chipped, plasterboard goes to a gypsum recycler, green waste is composted, hardcore is crushed for aggregate, and furniture and PAT-tested electricals in serviceable condition are routed to local reuse charities. That is how we hold a recycling rate above 90%.

The licence matters more than most people realise. Under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 you keep a duty of care for waste you produce even after someone drives away with it, so if a cheap unlicensed clearance in Erdington ends up fly-tipped, the penalty follows the householder. We are an Environment Agency registered upper-tier carrier and email you a waste transfer note after every collection, household or commercial.
