Rubbish Clearance Surrey operates as a fully licensed and compliant waste carrier, serving households, landlords, letting agents and businesses across Surrey and nearby areas. Our services are carried out in line with Environment Agency regulations, local council expectations and all relevant UK waste legislation. This page sets out how we manage our waste carrier licence, our duty of care responsibilities, insurance, documentation and day to day compliance procedures.
Rubbish Clearance Surrey is registered with the Environment Agency as an authorised waste carrier, broker and dealer. Our registration confirms that we are legally permitted to collect, transport and transfer a wide range of non-hazardous commercial and household waste arising from residential clearances, garden clearances, office clearances, end of tenancy and general rubbish removal.
Our Environment Agency registration is kept up to date at all times. We review renewal dates well in advance, check for any regulatory changes and make sure our business details, key contacts and operational activities accurately reflect the services we provide. Customers may request our licence details before or during a booking, and we will happily provide confirmation of our registration status and waste carrier number for your records.
By choosing a licenced operator such as Rubbish Clearance Surrey, you significantly reduce the risk of your waste being fly tipped or handled illegally. This helps protect you from potential fines and supports higher recycling and recovery rates within the local area.
All of our rubbish clearance activities are carried out in line with current UK waste management law, including regulations related to waste transport, transfer, storage and disposal. We stay informed about updates to environmental legislation and adjust our working practices promptly to remain compliant.
Our teams are trained to follow clear procedures for classifying, segregating and loading waste. Where recyclable materials can be identified and separated, we make every effort to divert them away from landfill by using authorised recycling and recovery facilities. We only deliver waste to properly licensed waste transfer stations and disposal sites that can demonstrate their own compliance and traceability.
We understand that residents and businesses in Surrey want reassurance that their rubbish is being dealt with properly. Working with an Environment Agency registered operator means your waste is handled within a clearly regulated framework, supporting the environmental objectives set out by national government and local councils.
Rubbish Clearance Surrey works across a wide range of Surrey boroughs and districts, including Guildford, Woking, Epsom and Ewell, Spelthorne, Elmbridge, Runnymede, Surrey Heath, Mole Valley, Tandridge, Reigate and Banstead and surrounding areas. Each local authority has its own priorities and expectations regarding responsible waste management, recycling performance and the reduction of fly tipping.
We align our working practices with local guidance wherever possible. This includes complying with site rules at council operated waste facilities, supporting local recycling objectives and promptly reporting any suspected illegal tipping or waste crime we encounter. Our crews are briefed on parking rules, access considerations and any local restrictions that may apply when operating within specific boroughs.
By maintaining close attention to local requirements, we help ensure that our work supports cleaner streets, safer public spaces and reduced environmental impact throughout Surrey.
In addition to our Environment Agency registration, Rubbish Clearance Surrey maintains appropriate commercial insurance to cover the rubbish clearance services we provide. This includes public liability insurance designed to protect our customers, members of the public and third party property while our teams are working on site.
Our insurance provides protection in the unlikely event of accidental damage or injury arising from our operations. Vehicles used for waste collection are also correctly insured for business use, including the carriage of waste. Policy details are reviewed regularly, and we maintain documentation that can be made available on request for commercial and managing agent clients who require it for their own compliance files or contractor approval processes.
Ensuring robust insurance arrangements is an important part of delivering a professional service and provides additional reassurance that your property, neighbours and visitors are protected while we are undertaking clearance work.
Whenever we remove waste from a site as part of our commercial operations, we follow the standard Waste Transfer Note process. A Waste Transfer Note, often referred to as a WTN, is a legal record of the transfer of non-hazardous waste from one party to another and forms a core part of the UK waste duty of care framework.
Our procedures ensure that each load of waste is described accurately, including the type of waste, quantity, how it is contained, the date of collection and the parties involved in the transfer. Where required, we use appropriate waste classification codes and ensure all sections of the transfer note are fully completed and retained for the minimum statutory period.
For regular commercial customers, such as letting agents, facilities managers, offices and other businesses in Surrey, we can provide annual or periodic Waste Transfer Notes covering repeat collections of similar waste types. For one off clearances, individual transfer notes are generated and stored securely. Copies can be made available to customers who need proof that their waste has been collected by a licensed carrier and passed into the authorised waste management system.
Rubbish Clearance Surrey takes its duty of care responsibilities seriously. Under UK law, anyone who produces, carries or manages waste must take all reasonable steps to ensure that it is handled safely and legally, from the point of collection to final disposal or recovery. This duty of care applies to us as a waste carrier and also to our customers as waste producers.
Our duty of care commitments include verifying that all waste we collect is taken only to authorised facilities, completing and retaining correct documentation, training our staff in safe loading, securing and transport of materials and preventing escape of waste from vehicles during transit. We never dispose of waste in unauthorised locations and we do not work with operators who cannot demonstrate their own compliance.
We also help our customers meet their own duty of care obligations. By using a licensed operator, obtaining details of our Environment Agency registration and keeping copies of Waste Transfer Notes for your records, you demonstrate that you have taken reasonable steps to ensure your waste is managed correctly. If you require guidance on what information you should keep on file, our team can explain the basic expectations in clear, practical terms.
Through careful adherence to duty of care requirements, we support cleaner communities, protect the environment and minimise the risk of enforcement action for all parties involved in the waste chain.
Compliance is not a one off exercise. Rubbish Clearance Surrey continuously reviews its procedures, training and documentation to keep pace with evolving environmental standards, regulatory changes and best practice guidance within the waste and recycling sector.
We regularly assess how we can increase recycling rates, reduce unnecessary transport, improve route planning and further minimise the environmental impact of our operations. Feedback from customers, local authorities and waste facility operators is welcomed and used to refine how we work.
By combining a valid waste carrier licence, strong legal compliance, thorough documentation, comprehensive insurance and a clear duty of care approach, Rubbish Clearance Surrey offers a reliable and responsible rubbish removal service throughout Surrey and the surrounding area.
