Rubbish Clearance Fulham operates as a fully licensed and compliant waste carrier, providing responsible rubbish removal and clearance services across Fulham and the wider southwest London area. This page explains our Environment Agency waste carrier registration, legal compliance measures, insurance cover, waste transfer note procedures, and our duty of care to customers and the community. It is designed to provide clear reassurance that your waste is handled lawfully, safely and in line with local expectations in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham and neighbouring boroughs.
We are registered with the Environment Agency as an upper tier waste carrier, broker and dealer. This registration allows us to legally collect, transport and arrange the disposal or recovery of controlled waste from homes, businesses, landlords, managing agents and construction sites.
Our registration confirms that we have met the requirements under the relevant waste regulations and that we are known to the regulator as an operator in the waste management chain. Our team can provide our Environment Agency waste carrier registration number on request, and it is also displayed on our service paperwork and vehicle documentation. Customers are encouraged to check any waste carrier they use is properly registered and to avoid unlicensed operators, which can lead to fly tipping and enforcement action.
By instructing Rubbish Clearance Fulham, you are engaging a recognised and legitimate waste carrier operating in accordance with national and local regulatory frameworks.
All rubbish clearance activities are carried out in line with current waste management legislation and guidance. This includes compliance with regulations governing the storage, transport and transfer of controlled waste, as well as adherence to environmental protection requirements that apply in England.
We keep up to date with relevant changes to waste and recycling laws, guidance from the Environment Agency, and local waste management policies within Hammersmith and Fulham Council and surrounding boroughs. Where council-operated transfer stations, civic amenity facilities or authorised material recovery facilities are used, we follow site rules and segregation requirements to maximise recycling and minimise the amount of waste sent to landfill or incineration.
Our operational procedures have been designed to reduce environmental impact, prevent littering, and ensure that loads are secure and covered during transport. Vehicles are maintained to a high standard so that they meet road safety and emissions requirements expected within London.
Rubbish Clearance Fulham carries appropriate public liability insurance for waste clearance operations. This cover is in place to protect customers, members of the public, and property during the course of our work. It includes cover for typical activities such as the removal and loading of bulky items, the movement of waste through communal areas, and work carried out on residential or commercial premises.
In addition to public liability insurance, we implement risk assessment procedures for more complex or higher risk clearances. This may include identifying safe access routes, planning for the removal of heavy or awkward items, and ensuring that appropriate manual handling practices are followed.
Our insurance arrangements form part of our broader compliance framework and demonstrate our commitment to operating responsibly and professionally at all times.
Whenever we remove waste as part of a commercial transaction or from a business, landlord, managing agent or trade customer, we issue a written waste transfer note. This document records the transfer of waste from you, as the producer or holder, to us, as the licensed carrier.
Each waste transfer note includes key information such as a description of the waste, the quantity or volume collected, how it is contained or packaged, the date and time of collection, and the details of both parties. Our Environment Agency waste carrier registration number is also listed so that there is a clear audit trail for the movement of your waste.
Where appropriate, we apply the standard classification codes and descriptions consistent with waste regulations. Copies of waste transfer notes are kept for the required statutory period so that records are available in the event of an inspection or enquiry by regulators or local authorities.
Household customers will receive clear confirmation of work carried out and, where necessary, information that explains how and where their waste will be managed following collection.
We recognise the legal duty of care that applies to everyone involved in the production, storage, transport and disposal of controlled waste. Rubbish Clearance Fulham takes this duty seriously and has designed its operations to ensure that waste is handled safely and lawfully from collection to final destination.
Our duty of care commitments include verifying that all facilities used to receive collected waste are properly licensed or permitted, ensuring that loads are accurately described and transferred with appropriate documentation, and avoiding any practices that could result in littering, pollution or illegal disposal.
Customers also have a duty of care when they pass waste to a third party. By choosing a licensed and insured carrier such as Rubbish Clearance Fulham, you significantly reduce the risk of your waste being fly tipped or mishandled. If waste collected from your property is later found dumped illegally and traced back to you, you may face investigation or penalties, even if you paid someone to remove it. Using a reputable operator is therefore an essential step in complying with your own responsibilities.
The London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, along with neighbouring boroughs such as Wandsworth and Kensington and Chelsea, sets clear expectations on waste storage, collection and disposal. These authorities work closely with the Environment Agency and other enforcement bodies to reduce fly tipping, improve recycling rates and protect local residential streets, parks and public spaces.
Rubbish Clearance Fulham supports these aims by ensuring that all rubbish we collect from Fulham homes and businesses is taken to authorised facilities and managed through legitimate waste streams. We cooperate with local council officers where necessary, observe local byelaws and traffic regulations, and plan our work to minimise disruption to neighbours and passers by.
Our team is familiar with typical local issues such as misuse of communal bins, contamination of recycling containers, and unlawful dumping around estates or commercial premises. We encourage customers to discuss any site specific challenges so that we can propose lawful, practical and cost effective clearance options that reflect both national law and local policy.
Our licensing, compliance procedures, insurance cover and documentation processes all form part of a wider commitment to responsible waste management. We aim to divert as much material as reasonably possible from disposal by separating recyclables and reusable items where facilities allow, while still prioritising legal compliance and safety.
By choosing Rubbish Clearance Fulham, you are engaging a waste carrier who is accountable to the Environment Agency, respects local borough expectations, and understands the importance of maintaining clean, safe and attractive streets for everyone who lives or works in Fulham. If you require confirmation of our licence details, insurance or waste transfer note processes for your records, our team will be happy to provide the necessary information.
