Construction Waste Collection in London
A construction site produces plenty of waste material, so it's important to have a management plan in place to keep your areas free from rubbish and rubble.
At RemoveALL London, we serve building projects of all sizes, helping them clear their sites and stay productive.
Arranging waste collection with us is extremely straightforward. With regular and same-day pickups available, you're bound to find a construction waste management plan that works for you. By recycling or reusing the majority of the materials we collect, we help ensure your project has the lowest possible environmental impact.
What Is Construction Waste?
Construction waste is any unwanted byproducts of demolition and building projects. Bricks, insulation, cement and metal pipes are just a few of the items you can expect to find in a construction site skip. Unfortunately, construction waste can be very tough to manage, especially if you're running a large site.
As construction projects continue to ramp up all around London, getting your waste management sorted in plenty of time is essential. At RemoveALL London, we offer flexible and comprehensive construction waste disposal that stops your team from getting snowed under in junk.
Types Of Construction Waste
There are various types of construction waste, and each has to be disposed of in a responsible way. When we collect your waste, we will fill in a waste transfer note that proves you have met the construction waste needs in full.
Insulation/asbestos
Insulation and asbestos materials are very common byproducts of a renovation or demolition project. The potentially harmful nature of asbestos means that it falls under very strict hazardous waste regulations. Asbestos can only be disposed of at certain locations, so it's essential that you make asbestos removal a key part of any site waste management plan.
Concrete & bricks
It's likely that your construction waste consists of plenty of bricks and concrete slabs. Although bricks aren't harmful, their weight means they can be tough to get rid of. Luckily for you, RemoveALL London can take bricks off your hands with ease. In most cases, bricks can be recycled ready for a new project.
Wood, plastic and glass
Wood, plastic and glass are typically non-hazardous waste, but they still need to be dealt with carefully. The vast majority of these materials can be recycled and it's our job to ensure that they don't end up on the landfill.
Metallic waste
Metal construction site materials are usually easily recyclable. This waste could include copper pipes, cables and sheet metal. Again, these materials can be cumbersome to transport, which is where a licensed waste carrier such as RemoveALL comes into play.
Tar
If your construction project involves pulling up asphalt containing coal tar, then you'll need to ensure this has a place in your waste management plan. Coal tar is toxic and has to be disposed of with the same level of care as asbestos. Of course, this is something that we'll be able to assist with.
Soil
Any project that requires digging will produce a large amount of soil. In many cases, this soil can be recycled - however, if it has been classed as toxic soil, the hazardous waste will have to be removed responsibly.
What Are The Regulations For Construction Waste?
Depending on the size of your construction or demolition project, there are a number of construction waste regulations that you'll have to be aware of. Our emphasis on recycling and reuse means that you'll be able to avoid heavy landfill and waste taxes.
If you're running a construction business, then you'll be expected to have a solid construction waste management plan in place. Our experienced and friendly team are happy to take on any project and provide reliable construction waste services.

Construction Waste Management FAQs
How much waste does a building site produce?
For the average building site, it's estimated that around 30% of the total building materials become waste. This alone should convince you that your next project will require a reliable waste management team to keep your site running smoothly.
Although the construction industry produces a huge amount of waste every year, this doesn't mean that it will all end up on the landfill. Many construction waste services, such as RemoveALL London, make recycling one of their main priorities. In fact, you can expect us to recycle over 90% of your building waste.
Is it better to hire RemoveALL London or get a skip?
Using a skip is a great and straightforward way to get rid of your construction waste. Your team can simply chuck everything they don't need into the skip and it will be whisked away when it's full. Despite the benefits of hiring a skip, it's not always the most convenient waste disposal method.
For one, you've got to find a place to put it - this can be particularly difficult if you're working on small home renovations. In addition, you might require a vehicle to lift heavy waste into the skip and will have to contact the skip company if you fill it too soon.
Our same-day waste removal service does away with these problems and is an extremely convenient way to get rid of any pesky construction products. There's no need to arrange skip delivery or push your way through London traffic to get a tip - just give us a call and we'll take care of the rest.
How much does construction waste removal cost in London?
The cost of removal depends on a number of factors including the amount of waste generated, the size and shape of the waste materials and the nature of the waste. Our affordable removals are competitively priced, but you can get an accurate quote by getting in touch with us today.
Our prices are always upfront and transparent. This way, you know exactly what you're getting for your money.
