Waste collection & rubbish removal for Tonbridge households and businesses

A commuter market town on the Medway with the castle at its centre, heavy through-traffic on the A26 and steady renovation activity in its Edwardian stock.

Edwardian and interwar semis, riverside apartments and 1970s estates at Higham Wood and Cage Green. That housing mix shapes how we work here: Tonbridge recycling centre on Vale Road has van restrictions and long weekend queues, so renovation waste in TN9 and TN10 usually needs a licensed collection instead.

Our crews reach Tonbridge via A21, A26 Quarry Hill Road, A227, M26 via A21, and we work regularly across Higham Wood, Cage Green, Hildenborough, Trench Wood, Judd. Waste collection — often called rubbish removal or man-and-van clearance — is a licensed service where a crew loads your unwanted items, transports them to a permitted transfer station and issues a waste transfer note proving lawful disposal.
