Wait & load service for Chattenden households and businesses

A former military village on the Hoo Peninsula ridge, now redeveloped with substantial new housing on the old barracks land.

Former married-quarters housing alongside newer developments and rural cottages. That housing mix shapes how we work here: Ex-service housing refurbishment across ME3 produces repeated kitchen, bathroom and carpet strip-out loads.

Our crews reach Chattenden via A228, Main Road, Lodge Hill Lane, and we work regularly across Chattenden, Lodge Hill, Upnor fringe. Wait and load is a service where a licensed waste vehicle and crew arrive at an agreed time and remain on site while waste is loaded, then leave immediately. Because the vehicle is attended it does not require the highway permit a skip needs.
