Describe the rubbish removal job before you request a quote
A few quick choices help the team understand volume, access and loading before they price the collection.
What are you clearing?
Rough volume
These are approximate load descriptions, not fixed volumes or vehicle capacities. List your items or add photos so the supplier can confirm volume, weight and price.
Agree the pickup point
A courtyard or rear doorway may be different from the address on the booking. Explain the route and confirm any indoor carrying before accepting a collection price.
