Get a quoteRubbish Clearance Dulwich operates as a fully licensed and compliant waste carrier, registered with the Environment Agency for the transport, handling and disposal of controlled waste. Our business is built on lawful, responsible and traceable waste management, giving customers confidence that their rubbish is managed correctly from collection to final disposal or recycling.
This Licence and Compliance page explains our Environment Agency registration details, our legal obligations, our insurance cover, our Waste Transfer Note procedures and our wider duty of care. It also outlines how we align our working practices with expectations set by local authorities in and around Dulwich and the surrounding boroughs.
As a professional rubbish removal company, we hold a valid Environment Agency waste carrier licence. This licence permits us to collect, carry and transport waste from homes, businesses and landlords in Dulwich and neighbouring areas. Being registered means our details are recorded on the official public register, and we are accountable for how we handle every load we collect.
Our team is trained to understand what can and cannot be transported under our licence. We identify the types of waste we accept, any special handling requirements and the correct routes for recycling or lawful disposal. We only use approved and regulated disposal and recycling facilities that meet current environmental standards.
Customers are encouraged to ask to see our waste carrier licence details at any time. We regard transparency as a core part of our compliance, and we want clients to feel confident that they are dealing with an Environment Agency licensed operator who takes their obligations seriously.
Rubbish Clearance Dulwich operates in line with relevant waste legislation and guidance, including the duty of care requirements for controlled waste. We monitor changes to environmental regulations, local authority policies and guidance from the Environment Agency to keep our working methods up to date.
Our legal compliance procedures include verifying that all waste is collected with the consent of the property owner or authorised representative, ensuring waste is safely loaded and secured for transport, preventing leaks, spills or escape of waste from vehicles, segregating waste types where required for recycling or special treatment and using authorised disposal or recycling facilities that hold appropriate permits or licences.
We keep records of all waste movements that we undertake. These records support inspections by regulators and confirm that the waste was handled in accordance with legal requirements. Our staff receive regular guidance on safe lifting, handling and transport, as well as environmental awareness and contamination control.
In addition to our Environment Agency registration, Rubbish Clearance Dulwich is covered by appropriate insurance for our day to day operations. This includes public liability cover to protect both our customers and members of the public while we are working on site or transporting waste.
Insurance is an important part of responsible waste management. It offers reassurance that, if an incident occurred, there is financial protection in place to help manage claims or damage. Our vehicles, staff and working methods are all chosen with safety in mind, and our insured status supports this commitment.
Details of our insurance cover can be provided on request. We encourage commercial clients in particular to review our policy information as part of their own health and safety and contractor approval checks.
Waste Transfer Notes, often referred to as WTNs, are an essential part of lawful waste management. Rubbish Clearance Dulwich uses Waste Transfer Notes to document the transfer of non hazardous controlled waste from a customer to our company, and from our company to the receiving facility.
Our WTN procedures typically include recording the date and time of collection, describing the type and quantity of waste collected, listing the source and destination of the waste, confirming our Environment Agency waste carrier registration details and obtaining signatures from both the transferor and transferee where required.
For many domestic collections, written information about the collection and disposal route is provided to give householders a clear record that they have handed their waste to a licensed carrier. For commercial customers, formal Waste Transfer Notes are retained for the legally required period. These records support compliance checks and help demonstrate that the business has met its duty of care under waste regulations.
Where waste is classified as hazardous or requires special handling, we follow additional documentation procedures and work only with appropriately permitted facilities. Our objective is always to maintain a clear, auditable trail for every load of waste we manage.
Everyone who produces or handles waste has a duty of care to ensure it is managed safely and legally. This duty of care applies to householders, landlords, letting agents, builders, tradespeople and commercial organisations.
By choosing Rubbish Clearance Dulwich, customers are selecting an Environment Agency licensed carrier that understands and fulfils its own duty of care. We ask that customers support this by providing accurate information about the waste to be collected, separating out any items that require specialist treatment where possible, not including liquids, chemicals or prohibited materials without prior agreement and retaining documentation we provide relating to waste collections.
We explain to customers that using unlicensed collectors or allowing waste to be removed without paperwork can lead to serious consequences, including the risk of fly tipping. Local councils can take enforcement action against the original waste producer even if they did not directly dump the waste. Working with a licensed and reputable carrier is therefore the simplest and safest way to meet duty of care obligations.
Dulwich is served by local borough authorities that take environmental protection and street cleanliness seriously. Rubbish Clearance Dulwich supports these aims by operating in full alignment with borough policies on waste disposal, recycling targets and fly tipping prevention.
Our work practices are designed to complement, not conflict with, council waste and recycling services. We avoid obstructing public highways when loading, follow any parking or access requirements that apply in the area, and take care to leave sites tidy and free from scattered rubbish once a clearance is complete.
Where local borough guidance encourages additional sorting or recycling of materials such as metals, wood, green waste or electrical items, we take reasonable steps to direct waste to appropriate facilities. We are committed to reducing reliance on landfill wherever practical and to supporting local environmental priorities through responsible waste routing.
Rubbish Clearance Dulwich continually reviews its licence status, insurance arrangements and working practices to keep pace with legal and environmental developments. We regard compliance as an everyday process rather than a one off obligation.
By maintaining an active Environment Agency waste carrier licence, following strict WTN procedures, operating with full insurance and upholding our duty of care, we provide customers in Dulwich and surrounding boroughs with a reliable, lawful and environmentally responsible rubbish clearance service.
Customers who would like more information about our licensing, compliance procedures or insurance are encouraged to contact us. We are happy to explain how we handle specific waste types, how we document collections and how we work with regulated facilities to deliver safe, traceable and compliant waste removal.
