Wait & load service for Dartford households and businesses
North-west Kent's commuter gateway beside the Dartford Crossing, with Bluewater on its doorstep and rapid apartment development around the town centre and Stone.
High-density new apartments at Stone and Ebbsfleet, interwar semis at Wilmington and Victorian terraces near the station. That housing mix shapes how we work here: Apartment blocks around Stone and Ebbsfleet have no space for skips and strict management company rules, so booked attended collections are the norm.
Our crews reach Dartford via M25 junctions 1a-2, A2, A282 Dartford Crossing, A226 London Road, A225, and we work regularly across Stone, Temple Hill, Joydens Wood, Wilmington, Greenhithe, Ebbsfleet. 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.
