2. Scope of Service
Waste Disposal Bermondsey provides waste collection and disposal services within its operational service area, including Bermondsey and surrounding locations. Availability of services may vary depending on the type and volume of waste, access to the Site, and local regulations.
The exact service to be provided, including the type of waste, estimated volume, collection date, and price, will be confirmed at the time of booking. Any information provided by the Customer regarding the quantity or type of waste must be accurate to ensure correct pricing and vehicle allocation.
3. Booking Process
3.1 Bookings may be made by telephone, email, or through an online request form if available. The Agreement is formed when Waste Disposal Bermondsey confirms acceptance of the booking, verbally or in writing.
3.2 At the time of booking, the Customer will be asked to provide details including name, contact information, Site address, description of the waste, access details, preferred collection date and time window, and any specific requirements.
3.3 All bookings are subject to availability. Waste Disposal Bermondsey reserves the right to refuse or cancel any booking where the Site is outside the service area, the waste type is prohibited, or the required resources are not available.
3.4 The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the information provided at the time of booking is complete and accurate. If the actual waste type or volume differs significantly from the description provided, Waste Disposal Bermondsey may adjust the price, decline to collect certain items, or reschedule the collection.
4. Access and Customer Responsibilities
4.1 The Customer must ensure that Waste Disposal Bermondsey has safe, reasonable, and unobstructed access to the Site at the agreed time. This includes arranging parking permissions where required and ensuring that any gates, doors, or access routes are unlocked and free from obstruction.
4.2 If access to the Site is restricted, unsafe, or not as described at the time of booking, Waste Disposal Bermondsey may charge a wasted journey fee, reschedule the collection, or refuse to complete the Service.
4.3 The Customer must ensure that all waste to be collected is clearly identified, suitably bagged or contained where appropriate, and stored in a manner that is safe for collection staff to handle.
4.4 The Customer must not present for collection any items classified as hazardous or prohibited under applicable waste regulations, unless previously agreed and lawfully permitted.
5. Pricing and Payments
5.1 Prices are generally based on the type and estimated volume or weight of waste, the nature of the Site access, and the location within the service area. Any prices provided prior to inspection are estimates only and may be adjusted at the time of collection if the actual volume, weight, or nature of the waste differs from the original description.
5.2 Waste Disposal Bermondsey will confirm the final price before commencing the loading of waste. If the Customer does not agree to the final price, the Service will not proceed, and a call-out or cancellation fee may be charged where reasonable costs have been incurred.
5.3 Payment is typically required at the time of collection unless alternative arrangements have been agreed in advance. Waste Disposal Bermondsey accepts common payment methods such as cash, card, or bank transfer, subject to availability and any stated conditions.
5.4 For commercial Customers, Waste Disposal Bermondsey may, at its discretion, agree to invoice the Customer with specified payment terms. Late payments may incur interest and administrative charges in accordance with applicable UK law.
5.5 All prices are quoted exclusive of VAT unless otherwise stated. Where VAT applies, it will be added at the prevailing rate and shown clearly on any invoice or receipt.
6. Cancellations and Amendments
6.1 The Customer may cancel or amend a booking by giving reasonable notice prior to the scheduled collection time. The required notice period will be advised at the time of booking but will usually be at least one full working day.
6.2 If the Customer cancels a booking without the required notice, or is not present where their presence is necessary for access or payment, Waste Disposal Bermondsey may charge a cancellation or wasted journey fee to cover costs reasonably incurred.
6.3 Waste Disposal Bermondsey reserves the right to cancel or reschedule a booking due to events beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to vehicle breakdowns, severe weather, road closures, staff illness, or compliance with regulations. In such cases, an alternative collection time will be offered where possible, and no additional charges will be applied solely due to the rescheduling.
6.4 If Waste Disposal Bermondsey arrives at the Site at the agreed time and is unable to carry out the collection due to the Customer’s failure to provide access or due to the presence of prohibited waste, the visit may be treated as a cancellation by the Customer and a fee may be charged.
7. Waste Regulations and Prohibited Items
7.1 Waste Disposal Bermondsey operates in accordance with applicable UK waste management legislation and regulations. All waste is transported and disposed of only at authorised facilities and in compliance with environmental and duty of care obligations.
7.2 The Customer is responsible for ensuring that waste presented for collection is lawful and does not include items that Waste Disposal Bermondsey is not permitted to handle. Prohibited waste may include, without limitation, asbestos, clinical or medical waste, certain chemicals, flammable or explosive materials, pressurised containers, and certain electrical or electronic items that require specialist handling.

9. Damage, Liability, and Insurance
9.1 Waste Disposal Bermondsey will take reasonable care when carrying out the Service to avoid causing damage to property. However, the Customer acknowledges that waste collection involves manual handling, vehicle movement, and the removal of bulky items, which may pose a risk to surfaces or fixtures, particularly where access is tight or unsuitable.
9.2 The Customer must inform Waste Disposal Bermondsey of any fragile surfaces, concealed services, or other particular risks at the Site. Where the Customer requests that collection staff move items through a tight or restricted area, any damage arising from such access may be at the Customer’s risk.

Waste Disposal Bermondsey will not be liable for indirect, consequential, or economic losses, loss of profit, loss of business, or loss of opportunity.
