Why Canterbury businesses use us for commercial waste collection
A UNESCO World Heritage city with three universities, a walled centre closed to most vehicles and one of Kent's highest concentrations of student houses in multiple occupation.
Victorian terraces converted to student HMOs around Wincheap and St Dunstans, plus medieval and listed buildings within the city walls. That housing mix shapes how we run commercial waste collection here: Student changeover in late June and September produces a huge spike in furniture and mattress disposal across CT1 and CT2, and city centre vehicle restrictions rule out skips entirely.
Our crews reach Canterbury via A2, A28 Sturry Road, A257, A290 Whitstable Road and work regularly across Wincheap, Hales Place, St Dunstans, Thanington, Sturry, Blean. Commercial waste collection is the scheduled or on-demand removal of waste produced by a business. Businesses cannot use household kerbside collections and must hold a written duty-of-care agreement with a registered carrier.
Canterbury sits in the Canterbury City Council area, so tip runs go to Canterbury Household Waste Recycling Centre, Vauxhall Road and the council alternative is Canterbury City Council runs a booked bulky waste collection priced per item, excluding trade waste. We cover the town from our Rochester depot with no travel surcharge on CT1, CT2, CT3, CT4 jobs.
