Rubbish Clearance Ealing operates as a fully licensed and compliant waste carrier, serving households, landlords and businesses across the London Borough of Ealing. This page explains how we meet Environment Agency waste carrier licence standards, our legal responsibilities, how we document and transfer waste, and the duty of care that underpins every collection we undertake.
As a professional rubbish removal service, we are registered as an upper tier waste carrier, broker and dealer with the Environment Agency. This licence allows us to collect, transport and arrange the recovery or disposal of controlled waste from domestic and commercial premises in Ealing and surrounding areas.
Our registration as a licensed waste carrier means that your waste is handled under recognised national regulations. Before booking, customers are welcome to request our waste carrier registration details, which we provide on request and display on our job documentation. We encourage every customer in Ealing to use only licensed carriers, as the producer of the waste can be held responsible if rubbish is found fly-tipped or disposed of illegally.
When you appoint Rubbish Clearance Ealing, you are choosing a contractor that is authorised, identifiable and accountable to the Environment Agency. This is an important safeguard for residents and businesses who wish to comply with UK waste law and avoid potential fines or enforcement action.
Rubbish Clearance Ealing operates in line with all relevant UK waste management regulations and guidance, including the Environmental Protection Act and associated waste duty of care code of practice. Our operations are structured to ensure that the collection, transport and transfer of waste are carried out safely and lawfully.
Our team has internal procedures to verify the type and quantity of waste collected, to prevent the handling of hazardous materials we are not authorised to carry, and to ensure that all loads are transferred only to licensed and appropriately permitted facilities. We work in a way that supports the broader environmental and public health goals of local and national regulators.
Within Ealing, we recognise that waste services operate in a busy urban borough with residential, commercial and industrial premises. Our working practices are designed to minimise disturbance, to keep highways and pavements clear and to avoid any harm to the local environment. We aim to surpass basic legal requirements by adopting good practice at every stage of the waste management process.
To protect our customers, the public and our staff, Rubbish Clearance Ealing maintains appropriate insurance cover for our waste clearance activities. This includes public liability insurance so that, in the unlikely event of accidental damage or injury during a clearance, there is adequate financial protection in place.
Our insurance arrangements are regularly reviewed and updated as our services grow and change. We can confirm details of our current cover to customers on request. Operating with proper insurance is a core component of responsible waste management and gives additional reassurance that work is carried out with professionalism and accountability.
Vehicles used by Rubbish Clearance Ealing for waste collection are operated by trained drivers and staff who understand safe loading, transport and unloading techniques. Combining trained personnel with appropriate insurance and a valid waste carrier licence ensures a secure, compliant service from the moment we arrive at your property until your waste reaches an authorised facility.
For non-household customers and for relevant waste streams, we use Waste Transfer Notes, often referred to as WTNs, to document the movement of waste from your premises to the receiving facility. These notes record key information including the description of the waste, quantity, how it is contained, the date and time of transfer, and the details of both the waste producer and the carrier.
Waste Transfer Notes form an essential part of compliance with the duty of care. They create a clear audit trail, showing that your waste has been passed to a licensed carrier and taken to an appropriate site. Rubbish Clearance Ealing retains copies of WTNs for the required legal period and can provide copies to commercial clients who need them for their own compliance records or internal audits.
When we collect waste that requires a transfer note, our team will prepare the documentation on the day of collection. We ensure that descriptions of waste are accurate and clear, and we classify waste correctly using current guidance. This attention to detail helps prevent misclassification, reduces the risk of contamination and supports efficient recycling and recovery at the receiving facility.
Everyone who produces or handles waste has a legal duty of care. At Rubbish Clearance Ealing, we take this responsibility seriously from the first contact with the customer through to the final disposal or recovery of the waste. Our duty of care includes safeguarding the environment, upholding health and safety, and ensuring that waste does not end up in unauthorised locations.
We encourage our customers to understand that their own duty of care does not end when waste leaves their property. By choosing a licensed and insured carrier, keeping copies of paperwork where relevant and providing accurate information about the waste, customers in Ealing can demonstrate that they have taken reasonable steps to manage their responsibilities.
Our duty of care commitments include preventing the escape of waste during collection and transport, securing loads properly, using appropriate vehicles and equipment, and transferring waste only to receiving sites that are licensed or permitted to accept it. We actively promote reuse and recycling wherever possible, in line with the waste hierarchy, so that items are diverted from landfill when there are suitable alternatives.
We understand that Ealing residents and businesses expect professional behaviour from anyone operating in the borough, particularly those handling waste. Rubbish Clearance Ealing is committed to working in a way that reflects local expectations around cleanliness, environmental protection and community responsibility. Our licence, documentation, insurance and internal procedures are all designed to support that commitment and to give you confidence in every clearance we complete.
