Dense materials need to be priced by weight rather than by the same volume guide used for lighter waste. This typically applies to inert or heavy materials such as hardcore, soil and stones.
This rate includes up to 30 minutes of loading time per tonne. As with standard collections, the team is practical and flexible rather than rigid about exact minutes.
Two jobs that look similar on paper can take very different amounts of time once access, stairs or waste type are considered. Sharing the right details early helps avoid surprises.
The total volume is the starting point and decides the likely price band.
General mixed waste, bulky items and heavy materials are handled differently.
Stairs, long carries, restricted parking or rear gardens can affect loading time.
Good photos and a clear deadline make it easier to plan the most suitable collection.
