Waste types we handle
Builders waste covers a wide range of materials, each with different disposal requirements. Here's how we handle the most common types.
Rubble and hardcore
Bricks, concrete blocks, sand and hardcore are heavy and require specialist disposal. We weigh heavy loads and price accordingly — typically £60–£100 per tonne on top of the base collection fee.
Plasterboard
Plasterboard must be segregated from general waste under UK regulations. We separate and dispose of it correctly at a licensed facility — never mixed with general skip waste.
Timber and MDF
Timber offcuts, skirting boards, door frames and MDF sheets are collected and taken to a wood recycling facility where possible. Treated or painted timber goes to an energy recovery facility.
Tiles and flooring
Ceramic tiles, vinyl flooring, laminate and adhesive-backed materials are collected as inert waste. Heavy tile loads may carry a weight surcharge — confirm with photos.
Packaging and wrapping
Cardboard, polystyrene, shrink wrap and foam packaging from new appliances or materials are collected and taken to a recycling facility.
Sanitary ware and fittings
Old baths, sinks, toilets, radiators and pipework from bathroom or kitchen refits are collected as bulky waste. Metal fittings are separated for recycling.
What affects the price
Builders waste pricing depends on volume, material weight and site access. Here's what we factor in when quoting.
Volume of waste
We price primarily by volume — how much space the waste takes up in our vehicle. A single room's worth of renovation debris typically fills a quarter to a third of our van.
Material weight
Heavy materials like rubble, concrete and tiles cost more to dispose of due to landfill weight charges. We'll flag this when you send photos so you know before we arrive.
Carry distance
If waste is on an upper floor, in a basement or at the back of a deep site, it takes longer to carry out. We factor in carry distance when quoting — always mention it with your photos.
Parking and access
If there's no parking directly outside, we may need to carry waste further to the vehicle. In congested areas like Bromley town centre or Beckenham, a parking surcharge may apply.
Segregation required
Mixed loads are fine for most jobs. If plasterboard needs to be separated from general waste (required by law), we handle this — but it adds a small amount to the disposal cost.
Same-day or weekend booking
Same-day and weekend slots are available subject to availability. There's no fixed surcharge — send photos and we'll confirm the price and timing together.

How we dispose of builders waste legally
Clear It is a registered waste carrier (licence CBDU604226). All builders waste is taken to a licensed waste transfer station where it is sorted, weighed and processed. Inert materials like rubble and concrete are crushed and recycled as aggregate. Timber goes to wood recycling or energy recovery. Plasterboard is segregated and processed separately as required by the Environmental Protection Act 1990. We issue a waste transfer note on every job — this is your legal proof that waste was removed and disposed of correctly. Contractors and landlords should retain this for their records. We never fly-tip or use unlicensed facilities.
