Rubbish Removal

[bcd-87]

Might loose a job because I can't (or rather won't ) remove the waste......got to rip out a shower area that's been leaking, not my job btw, so about 7 m2 of tiles all the plaster board shower door ect so not a small amount.
It's a nightmare going to the local tip, vans have to be booked in to go there, told him I can bag it all up for him to take f.o.c , or he can get a skip and we can chuck it in there......but he's adamant my price should include the waste removal. ....which it doesn't state anywhere on my quote it dose..

mines in my T&Cs mate, i bag it and will place it where ever they want but thats it

Register as a waste carrier, broker or dealer (England) - GOV.UK
Free lifetime license for sole traders, or was when I registered
I sure its been posted before but worth doing again

I've just done a dummy fill out of the form and it wanted £154, I'd assume that that's because of plasterboard and other building waste. 99% of jobs I'm on now have a skip so it's not something I need really.

I take rubbish if the customer is elderly and guys at my local tip are ok as long as you're not sign written. I do state 'rubbish removal not included in price' on all my quotes but make the odd exception(plenty of tea and good manners).

Exactly mate....got no problem getting a skip or a hippo as long as he pays for it. ....

Well he did say it must be included in your price, so then u give him new quote as John has said!

There's a good chance you'll need to pay for it, if your carrying your own waste they seem to class that as "Waste carrier and Dealer".

 

[Old Mod]

Exactly mate....got no problem getting a skip or a hippo as long as he pays for it. ....but he seems to think my price should automatically of included waste removal. ...lol

Well u can't automatically include something you're not licensed for, now can u!
But I always state, Removal of waste not included but can be arranged!

Thats exactly right - since when did you become the owner of rubbish from their house

It's amazing how far good tea,good biscuits and good manners gets you.

Are you a limited company? If yes that's why you pay I believe.
I am sure you need this license to transport any waste, even if it's from materials you have supplied.

Your right on that....and a top fine of £5000 if caught without one

We have to pay for inert waste disposal now - domestic or otherwise. And we can only get 12 bags per year.
So you pay your council tax and now because all services are privatised they want more profit.
Hence the "environmental surcharges" - to save some polar bears.
