Rubbish Clearance Richmond upon Thames operates as a fully licensed and compliant waste carrier, providing residents, landlords and businesses in the Richmond upon Thames area with a lawful and responsible rubbish removal service. Our operations are conducted in line with Environment Agency regulations, local borough expectations and national legislation governing the transport, handling and disposal of waste.
We hold a valid Environment Agency waste carrier, broker and dealer licence, which is a legal requirement for any business that transports waste as part of its services. This licence confirms that we are registered with the appropriate authority and that we are permitted to collect and carry household, commercial and non-hazardous waste from properties across Richmond upon Thames and surrounding areas.
Our registration details are maintained and monitored by the Environment Agency. This provides assurance that we have met the standards required for lawful waste carriage. Customers can be confident that any rubbish removed by Rubbish Clearance Richmond upon Thames is handled in accordance with current regulations and industry best practice.
As a licensed waste carrier, we are obligated to ensure that every load we transport is taken only to authorised treatment, recycling or disposal facilities. We do not use unlicensed tips or informal dump sites, and we never dispose of waste in a way that could be considered fly-tipping or unlawful dumping.
Our rubbish clearance services are operated in accordance with the key legislation that governs waste management within England, including the Environmental Protection Act and the Waste Regulations. These laws set out responsibilities for both businesses and individuals when it comes to producing, handling and disposing of waste.
Rubbish Clearance Richmond upon Thames keeps working procedures under regular review to ensure ongoing compliance with any changes in waste legislation or Environment Agency guidance. Staff are trained to recognise different waste types, understand any restrictions on disposal and follow safe handling practices for recyclable, bulky and mixed general waste.
We work with permitted waste transfer stations and recycling centres that are authorised to receive the specific waste streams we carry. This controlled chain helps ensure that materials are treated, recycled or disposed of through legal and environmentally sound processes, in line with both national rules and the waste reduction aims of the local borough.
In addition to being fully licensed, Rubbish Clearance Richmond upon Thames is appropriately insured for the services we provide. Our insurance arrangements are designed to give peace of mind to householders, commercial clients and managing agents who engage us for rubbish clearances and property clean-ups.
We maintain public liability insurance to cover our activities while working on clients premises, including in residential streets, communal areas, commercial properties and shared access points. This insurance supports our commitment to operating safely and responsibly at all times.
Our aim is to carry out each job with minimum disruption, leaving properties tidy and free from waste, while ensuring that any accidental damage risks associated with the clearance process are appropriately managed and insured.
A key part of compliant waste management is accurate documentation. Rubbish Clearance Richmond upon Thames follows strict procedures for issuing and maintaining Waste Transfer Notes, often referred to as WTNs. These documents record the transfer of waste from the customer to us as the licensed carrier, and then onward to the receiving facility.
For relevant collections, we generate a Waste Transfer Note that includes sufficient detail of the waste type, quantity, date of collection and the parties involved. This evidences that the waste has changed hands lawfully and has been passed to a registered carrier for movement to an authorised site.
We retain these records for the minimum periods required by law and make sure that the description of waste is accurate and clear. Proper documentation helps protect customers as well as our business, and it forms part of the audit trail that the Environment Agency and local authorities may rely on to confirm that waste has been dealt with responsibly.
Where appropriate, we also work within the framework of other relevant documentation, such as consignment paperwork for specific controlled waste streams, ensuring that all legal obligations regarding tracking and disposal are fully observed.
Every person and business that produces waste has a legal duty of care to ensure that it is handled and disposed of correctly. At Rubbish Clearance Richmond upon Thames we take this duty of care seriously and support our clients in meeting their own responsibilities under the law.
Our duty of care commitments include safeguarding waste during loading and transport, preventing escape of materials and ensuring that vehicles are operated in a secure and responsible way. We make every effort to segregate recyclables where practical, supporting diversion from landfill and contributing to the environmental aims of Richmond upon Thames and the wider London area.
By choosing a licensed and insured carrier such as Rubbish Clearance Richmond upon Thames, customers reduce their risk of being connected to illegal dumping or non-compliant disposal. Unregistered collectors may offer cheap services but can leave property owners and businesses exposed to investigation or fines if waste is later found fly-tipped or mishandled.
We encourage all clients to ask for our waste carrier licence details and to retain any paperwork we supply. This simple step demonstrates that the duty of care has been taken seriously and that appropriate checks on the carrier have been made.
Richmond upon Thames places strong emphasis on environmental protection, recycling and maintaining clean and safe neighbourhoods. As a local rubbish clearance provider, we recognise the expectations the borough has for responsible waste management and community standards.

We aim to keep noise, disruption and obstructions to a minimum during collections so as not to inconvenience residents, pedestrians or other road users.
Where council guidance affects access, parking or timing of collections, we make every effort to work within those parameters. We respect controlled parking zones, loading restrictions and any local advice issued in relation to waste handling, recycling and environmental quality across the borough.
