In Lancashire they'll seize your van!
Van? In Lancashire? More like horse and cart 😉
I have to apply for a license now and I can have 3 trips to the tip in a non sign-written van with 'household' waste per year

Could'nt even get into the household waste side of it with a van in my neck of the woods.

And here. SITA don't look after the staff too well. Their morale is rock-bottom.

As others have said, I make a point of telling the customer that rubbish removal is not allowed for in my estimate but I can arrange a skip. I can't go anywhere near a rubbish tip round my way in the van. So even if I did take it I couldn't get rid of it anywhere. It's no wonder fly tipping is on the increase.

In Reading same.. must have a carriage license you then get weighed at the tip and charged..
I have a household waste permit which is free from my local council and linked to my van reg, (no sign writing on my van) so I can use my local tip.
I don't normally include removal of waste but on my last job (full bathroom refit) I said I'd get rid of it for £50.
He loaded my van up while I fitted his shower screen and then I spent 10 mins down the tip - I did spot a few cheeky bits in there like old garden umbrellas etc... but it was still only one trip and the easiest money I've ever earned.

Complete opposite for me!! I took pity on an old lady I'd pulled the wall off to re-board and tile in a bathroom, said I'd get rid of that for you, so no vans can use my sites so takes the wife's car round after I'd finished, takes 6 rubble sacks to the tip, cost me £12, £2 per bag, the site now charge for rubble, soil and plasterboard..... I go back to grout up the next day and slips it in to the conversation that it cost me, what did I get, a big fat THANKS!! LOL. never mind, I'll go to heaven, just skint when I get there........
