1. Definitions
In these Terms and Conditions, the following expressions shall have the meanings set out below:
Customer means the individual, business, organisation, or other entity requesting waste collection or related services.
Company means Waste Disposal Clapham, the provider of waste collection and disposal services.
Services means all waste clearance, waste collection, loading, transportation, and disposal activities carried out by the Company for the Customer.
Booking means any request for Services that has been accepted by the Company and confirmed to the Customer.
Waste means any items, materials, or rubbish presented by the Customer for collection, clearance, removal, or disposal.
2. Scope of Services
The Company provides waste collection and disposal services, including household rubbish removal, bulky item collection, commercial waste clearance, and related services within the designated service areas, including Clapham and surrounding neighbourhoods. The specific scope of Services for each Booking will be confirmed in writing or verbally at the time the Booking is made.
The Company reserves the right to refuse any Waste that cannot be safely collected, handled, or disposed of in compliance with applicable laws, regulations, or site conditions. The Company does not provide services for all types of hazardous or specialist waste unless explicitly agreed in advance.
3. Booking Process
3.1 Customers may request a Booking by telephone, email, or other communication channels offered by the Company. The Customer must provide accurate information about the type, approximate volume, and location of the Waste, as well as access details and any relevant restrictions.
3.2 The Company may provide an estimate based on the information supplied by the Customer. This estimate may be subject to change on site if the actual Waste volume, type, access, or conditions differ from the description provided.
3.3 A Booking is only confirmed once the Company has accepted the Customer's request and provided a date and time window for the Services. The Company will use reasonable efforts to arrive within the agreed time window but does not guarantee exact arrival times due to traffic, operational, or safety factors.
3.4 The Customer is responsible for ensuring that an authorised person is present at the collection address during the agreed time window to grant access, confirm the Waste to be collected, and approve any final charges where required.
4. Access and Site Conditions
4.1 The Customer must ensure that the Company's operatives have safe, reasonable, and unobstructed access to the Waste at the time of collection. This includes arranging parking, loading access, and entry to buildings, gardens, or other relevant areas.
4.2 If parking permits, visitor passes, or specific arrangements are required for the Company's vehicle, it is the Customer's responsibility to arrange these unless otherwise agreed in advance. Any parking charges, penalties, or delays caused by lack of suitable access may be added to the Customer's invoice.
4.3 The Company reserves the right to refuse or suspend Services if, in the opinion of the Company or its operatives, site conditions are unsafe, illegal, or materially different from the conditions described at the time of Booking.
5. Pricing, Estimates, and Quotations
5.1 The Company may provide a price estimate based on the information available at the time of Booking. Final charges may differ if the Waste volume, type, weight, or complexity of access is not as originally described.
5.2 Prices may be based on factors including, but not limited to, volume of Waste, weight, loading time, staff required, disposal costs, and any special handling or recycling requirements.
5.3 Where possible, the Company will confirm the final price before commencing work on site. If the Customer does not agree to the revised price, the Company reserves the right to cancel the Booking or adjust the scope of Services.
6. Payments and Invoicing
6.1 Payment is due on completion of the Services unless otherwise agreed in writing. The Company may require full or partial payment in advance for certain Bookings, including large clearances, commercial work, or out-of-hours collections.
6.2 The Company accepts payment by cash, bank transfer, or other methods as notified to the Customer from time to time. Cheques may only be accepted by prior agreement.
6.3 For account Customers or commercial customers with credit terms, invoices must be paid within the agreed payment period. If no period is specified, payment is due within 14 days of the invoice date.
6.4 The Company reserves the right to charge interest on overdue invoices at the statutory rate permitted under UK law, together with any reasonable costs incurred in recovering the debt.
7. Cancellations and Amendments
7.1 The Customer may cancel or amend a Booking by giving reasonable notice to the Company. Where possible, the Company asks for at least 24 hours' notice for cancellations or changes to scheduled waste collection appointments.
7.2 If the Customer cancels with less than 24 hours' notice, or fails to provide access at the agreed time, the Company reserves the right to charge a cancellation fee to cover travel, staff, and administrative costs.
7.3 The Company may cancel or reschedule a Booking if it is unable to provide the Services for reasons beyond its reasonable control, including vehicle breakdown, extreme weather, accidents, staff illness, or other operational or safety concerns. In such cases, the Company will endeavour to notify the Customer as soon as reasonably practicable and to reschedule the Booking at a convenient time.

10.4 Nothing in these Terms and Conditions limits or excludes the Company's liability for death or personal injury caused by its negligence, fraud, or any other liability that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law.
10.5 Subject to the above, the Company's total liability to the Customer for any loss or damage arising out of or in connection with the Services, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, shall not exceed the total price paid or payable by the Customer for the specific Booking in question.
