These Terms and Conditions set out the basis on which Waste Clearance Elephant and Castle provides waste collection and related services to domestic and commercial customers in the United Kingdom. By making a booking, accepting a quote, or allowing our operatives to commence work at your premises, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions.
In these Terms and Conditions, the following expressions have the meanings set out below:
Customer means the individual, business, or organisation requesting or receiving the services.
Company means Waste Clearance Elephant and Castle, the provider of the services.
Services means any waste clearance, rubbish removal, bulky waste collection, loading, transportation, or related services supplied by the Company.
Premises means the property, building, land, or site at which the Services are to be carried out.
Waste means any rubbish, refuse, junk, furniture, appliances, garden waste, commercial waste, or other materials agreed to be removed by the Company, excluding any prohibited items.
The Company provides waste collection and clearance services to residential and commercial customers, including but not limited to the collection, loading, transportation, and lawful disposal or recycling of Waste. The exact scope of work will be as described in the quote or booking confirmation issued by the Company.
The Company reserves the right to refuse to collect or handle any items which are hazardous, illegal, unsafe to move, or otherwise prohibited under applicable waste legislation or guidance. This includes, but is not limited to, asbestos, certain chemicals, medical or clinical waste, gas bottles, and any materials classified as hazardous waste unless expressly agreed in writing.
Bookings may be made by telephone, email, or through any online booking facility provided by the Company. When you request a booking, you will be asked to provide accurate information about the type and volume of Waste, the Premises, access conditions, and any special requirements.
The Company may provide an initial estimate based on the information supplied. All estimates are subject to confirmation upon arrival at the Premises. The final price may vary depending on the actual volume, weight, nature of the Waste, access constraints, parking requirements, and the time taken to complete the work.
A booking is not confirmed until the Company issues a booking confirmation, which may be provided verbally, by email, or within an online system. The Company reserves the right to decline any booking request at its discretion.
The Customer is responsible for ensuring that someone authorised is present at the Premises at the agreed time to grant access, confirm the scope of work, and approve any adjustments to the price where applicable.
The Customer must ensure safe, reasonable, and lawful access to the Premises and to the Waste to be collected. This includes arranging any necessary parking permits, entry codes, lift access, and clearance of obstructions.
Any parking charges, congestion charges, tolls, or similar costs incurred in carrying out the Services may be added to the final invoice unless otherwise agreed in advance.
The Customer should prepare the Waste for collection as agreed at the time of booking, for example by bagging loose items, separating recyclable materials where required, or disassembling large items where this has been discussed. If additional labour or time is required due to inadequate preparation, the Company may reasonably increase the charge.
Prices are generally based on factors such as the volume or weight of Waste, type of materials, labour required, and any applicable disposal or recycling fees. The Company will endeavour to provide clear and transparent pricing information before commencing work.
Where a quote is provided based on photographs, descriptions, or approximate measurements, it is an estimate only. The final price will be confirmed on site once the Waste has been inspected. If the Customer does not agree to the revised price, the Company reserves the right to cancel the visit and may charge a call-out or cancellation fee where reasonable.
All prices are stated in pounds sterling and may be subject to VAT or other taxes where applicable. Any such charges will be clearly identified on invoices or confirmations.
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, payment is due in full on completion of the Services at the Premises. The Company accepts payment by cash, debit or credit card, or bank transfer, subject to availability of payment methods on the day.
For business and trade customers with agreed credit terms, invoices must be paid in full within the period specified on the invoice. If no period is stated, payment is due within 14 days of the invoice date.
The Company reserves the right to charge interest on overdue amounts at the statutory rate and to recover any reasonable costs incurred in pursuing late payment, including debt recovery and legal costs.
Title to any collected Waste passes to the Company only upon full payment of all sums due. Until payment is received, the Company shall have a lien over the Waste and may, at its discretion, retain, store, or return items at the Customer’s cost.
The Customer may cancel or amend a booking by giving reasonable notice to the Company. For standard bookings, the Company requests at least 24 hours’ notice prior to the agreed arrival time.
If the Customer cancels with less than 24 hours’ notice, or is not present at the Premises when the crew arrives, the Company may charge a cancellation or call-out fee to cover costs, including travel and lost time.
Where the Services are booked for a specific time window, the Company will use reasonable endeavours to attend as scheduled but cannot guarantee exact timings due to traffic, access, and operational factors. If the Company is significantly delayed, it will attempt to notify the Customer and agree an alternative time where required. In such circumstances, the Company shall not be liable for any indirect or consequential loss due to delay.
If the Customer wishes to change the scope of work on the day, including adding or removing items, this will be subject to crew availability and may affect the final price. The crew will confirm any changes in cost before proceeding.
The Customer warrants that they are the owner of the Waste or otherwise have full authority from the owner to arrange its removal. The Customer agrees to indemnify the Company against any claims brought by third parties relating to ownership or rights in the Waste.
The Customer must not present for collection any items that are dangerous, hazardous, or prohibited without prior written agreement. If such items are discovered, the Company may refuse to handle them, adjust the price, or terminate the Services immediately.
The Customer is responsible for providing accurate information about the Waste and the Premises. If the information supplied is incomplete or misleading, the Company may revise the quote, charge additional fees, or cancel the booking with an appropriate cancellation charge.
The Company operates in accordance with applicable UK waste legislation and guidance, including the duty of care regarding the handling, transfer, and disposal of controlled waste. All reasonable steps will be taken to ensure that Waste is transported and disposed of lawfully at licensed facilities, with recycling and recovery prioritised where practicable.
On request, and where required by law, the Company will provide appropriate documentation relating to the transfer of Waste, such as a waste transfer note or reference, to demonstrate compliance.
The Customer agrees not to request any action that would put the Company in breach of environmental, waste management, or transport regulations. If the Customer insists on such action, the Company will refuse and may terminate the Services immediately without liability.
The Company will exercise reasonable care and skill in providing the Services. However, the Company shall not be liable for any pre-existing damage at the Premises or to items being removed, nor for minor cosmetic damage that is reasonably incidental to the careful carrying and moving of bulky or heavy items through confined or difficult spaces.
If the Customer is concerned about potential damage to specific areas or fixtures, they should inform the crew before work begins, and the Company will discuss options, which may include alternative access routes or declining to move certain items.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company’s liability for any direct loss or damage arising from its negligence or breach of contract shall be limited to the total price paid or payable for the relevant Services. The Company shall not be liable for any indirect, consequential, or economic loss, including loss of profit, loss of business, or loss of opportunity.
Nothing in these Terms and Conditions shall limit or exclude liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited.
The Company maintains appropriate public liability and, where applicable, employer’s liability insurance for its operations. Copies of insurance details may be made available on request.
The Customer is advised to check any existing household, commercial, or contents insurance to ensure adequate cover is in place for items on the Premises before and during the provision of the Services.
If the Customer is dissatisfied with any aspect of the Services, they should notify the Company as soon as reasonably possible so that any issues can be investigated and addressed. The Customer should provide details of the booking, the nature of the complaint, and any relevant evidence such as photographs.
The Company will endeavour to respond promptly and fairly, and may offer remedies such as revisiting the Premises, partial refunds, or other appropriate solutions at its discretion and in line with applicable consumer protection laws.
If a dispute cannot be resolved directly, both parties agree to consider informal negotiation or mediation before resorting to formal legal proceedings where practicable.
The Company shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform its obligations where such delay or failure results from events or circumstances beyond its reasonable control. These may include, but are not limited to, extreme weather, accidents, road closures, breakdowns, strikes, acts of terrorism, fire, flood, or changes in law or regulatory requirements.
Where a force majeure event occurs, the Company will notify the Customer as soon as reasonably possible and will attempt to reschedule the Services. If performance is substantially prevented or delayed for an extended period, either party may cancel the affected booking without liability, other than for Services already performed.
The Company may collect and process personal data about Customers for the purposes of handling enquiries, managing bookings, delivering the Services, processing payments, and fulfilling legal obligations. Personal data will be handled in accordance with applicable UK data protection laws.
The Customer agrees that their contact details may be used to communicate about bookings, confirmations, invoices, and any necessary follow-up. The Company will not sell personal data to third parties and will only share information where required for lawful purposes such as waste transfer documentation, payment processing, or regulatory compliance.
The Company may amend these Terms and Conditions from time to time to reflect changes in legislation, industry practices, or business operations. The version in force at the time of booking will apply to that booking. Updated terms may be made available upon request or published as part of the Company’s service information.
These Terms and Conditions, and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or the provision of the Services, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales.
The courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms and Conditions or their subject matter, save that if you are a consumer resident in another part of the United Kingdom, you may also bring proceedings in your local courts as permitted by law.
These Terms and Conditions, together with any written quote or booking confirmation issued by the Company, constitute the entire agreement between the Company and the Customer in relation to the Services. No verbal statement or representation shall be binding unless confirmed in writing by the Company.
If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. No failure or delay by the Company in enforcing any right or remedy shall constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy.
