Waste collection & rubbish removal for Upnor households and businesses
A conservation-area riverside village of cobbled lanes below Upnor Castle, opposite Chatham Historic Dockyard.
Listed cottages on a cobbled high street with larger period houses at Upper Upnor. That housing mix shapes how we work here: Cobbled conservation lanes at Upnor cannot take skips or large vehicles, so items are barrowed out to a van parked at the top of the hill.
Our crews reach Upnor via Upnor Road, A289, A228, and we work regularly across Lower Upnor, Upper Upnor. 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.
