    • Sorting your load will make disposal of different materials easy.
    • If a load is not sorted, it can be difficult to see what type of materials are in the load meaning in some cases, you may be charged an incorrect price at the gate.
    • Sorting your load can save you money.


      It's as simple as:

    • Grouping reusable items together (furniture, fridges etc). 
    • Keeping recyclables together and flattening any large cardboard boxes. 
    • Sorting bricks and rubble together. 
    • Separating timber, metals, wood, paint, oils and green waste.
