Man & Van in Dartford

Dartford is the principal town in the borough of the same name, to the South East of Central London. The area is home to a lot of options when it comes to man and van removal services, along with a handful of established waste collection and disposal companies. The man and van services in this area, if done properly allow residents and businesses to access straightforward, cost effective rubbish removals that can provide a more flexible service than the council or established companies in the area.

The typical man and van removal outfit in Dartford tends to be highly adaptable and open to completing a wide range of waste clearances and junk removals, from gardens and homes to businesses and construction sites. Last year, Dartford council collected almost 350,000 tonnes of waste from residents in the area, with well over half of that waste ending up in landfills. For this reason, residents, business owners and construction sites may opt for private waste companies that offer man and van service to ensure a more environmentally friendly waste disposal route.

A man with a van removal service that performs to expected professional and environmental standards will be able to seek out the correct recycling options for various waste streams meaning man and van services tend to recycle over 90% of the waste they collect.

However, there are certain risks to using man and van removals. Customers that are looking for a quick turn around on their rubbish collection without looking into the credentials of the man with a van service may face legal issues should their waste be found illegally disposed of. Over 2000 fly-tipping incidents were recorded in Dartford last year, with irresponsible waste removal services playing a role in this.

Once you get in touch with a man and van removals company, they will usually ask how much rubbish you need to be cleared and what type of waste it is. For example, heavy or bulky waste may require a third operative to attend the clearance or if your junk is stored in a range of places in your property. Most of the services available in Dartford will ask for you to take a picture of everything that needs removing. This helps when making an informed estimate of the cost, as it allows whoever is estimating the clearance to be more detailed and it also limits the chance of the clearance team removing the wrong item.

Once a price has been agreed, you can organise a convenient date and time for the collection. If any of your items require dismantling or re-assembly, it is best to say so before the team arrives as this might change the estimate. Typically council run man and van services will only take your rubbish from outside your property, whilst most private run clearance firms will offer to remove heavy items like furniture or white kitchen items like fridges from inside your home.

At Wayst, we know what it is like hanging around waiting for a contractor or tradesman so we ensure you receive a call in advance to let you know when your team is on their way. We also guarantee that if the load size is more than what the initial estimate quotes, you have no obligations to go ahead, ensuring you are not hit with any hidden costs.

Due to their flexibility, man and van rubbish clearance services can operate over a large area. While a lot of man with a van services pop up when searching specifically in Dartford, many may extend their services across the whole city. The availability of man and van services in Dartford can make them a more attractive option than the established waste removal companies in the area as they can typically arrive within 24 hours of the call, some even on the day.

Established waste removal companies tend to make it a little easier to check their credentials, whether that is by sharing them on their website, or by having an enquiries department in-house. These companies also tend to have more accessible policies on their waste disposal habits, publishing their recycling rate or how they are working to reduce the use of landfills. Before hiring a man with a van service, you should confirm that they are licensed waste carriers, have accreditations that align with their work and hold all the relevant insurances like public liability insurance.

Using a service like Wayst allows you to access reliable man and van services quickly, that professional man and van outfits offer along with the guarantee that they are fully licensed professionals that will dispose of your waste according to our company standards and government regulations. Our teams are thoroughly trained, vetted and security screened, so you know you can trust them when carrying out clearances anywhere in your property on your behalf.

Man and van removal services calculate their pricing on several different factors. These are usually: size, time, labour and weight. Some services will only use one or two of these factors, while others will calculate a price using all of them. It’s important to always work out an estimated fee in advance for these services to avoid any hidden costs.

At Wayst, we prefer to keep our prices as transparent as possible and agree on a fee beforehand to give our customers peace of mind, this is why we require pictures before estimating and when the clearance team turns up and your load size works out to be more than the agreed amount, we offer a free no obligation service ensuring we only carry out the clearance if you are happy for us to do so.

Prices for man and van services in Dartford can start at around £45+VAT for smaller jobs. With larger removals averaging £80+VAT for approximately one cubic yard worth of waste. Half a van load of rubbish can cost between £150-£180+VAT depending on the type of waste and fridges, mattresses and TVs should incur separate charges starting at around £10+VAT as they require different disposal routes to the general waste.

There are several things you can do to help keep the cost of rubbish removals down. To keep the required labour low, you can prepare the rubbish in advance to make the loading time faster and reduce the need for extra labour. You could also assist the team yourself to speed things up. If the size or weight of your rubbish collection is making things pricey for you, it may be a good idea to break down some of the bulky waste to help it fit in the van, items like furniture and mattresses should be kept out of the rain, as once wet it cannot be reused, only be recycled.

You should use a man and van service if you need a cost and time-efficient rubbish removal or clearance and/or if you need help with the labour element of the clearance. Man and van services provide a much faster service when compared to something like skip hire and is most of the time a lot cheaper as you do not need to get the Dartford council involved and pay for things like a skip permit costing £48 along with a parking suspension that works out to £15 per day, both of which cause the cost of waste clearances to rise dramatically.
