Rubbish removal in South Woodham Ferrers: what to know
We collect household rubbish, garden waste and builders' waste across South Woodham Ferrers in CM3.
South Woodham Ferrers was planned by Essex County Council as a new riverside town from the 1970s, so most homes follow the Essex Design Guide: brick, render and weatherboarded houses on small plots, set close to the road in culs-de-sac linked by footpaths. Older housing of the 1960s and early 1970s lies along Hullbridge Road near the station, with a few surviving plotland homes, and streets in the south-west carry names such as Gandalf's Ride and Hobbiton Hill. Short frontages leave little spare room, so bulky waste is usually carried out to the close.
Seafront and estuary roads have parking controls, so we time the stop and keep it short. Plenty of South Woodham Ferrers jobs are only a handful of items and bags: for those, price it yourself and book online. Bigger clear-outs with help on hand often go as wait and load.
Chelmsford City Council empties the 180-litre black bin every two weeks. A bin whose lid won't close isn't emptied, and black sacks left beside it aren't taken. Anything that can't go out with the rubbish, we can clear from South Woodham Ferrers in one visit. The council's bin rules.
Chelmsford City Council recorded 650 fly-tipping incidents in 2024/25, down from 810 the year before, by the government's own figures. It can fine a household £600 for giving waste to someone who isn't licensed to carry it. Our waste carrier number is CB/DU308513, on the Environment Agency's public register.
For waste behind the house, tell us about side access, steps and gate widths. If you want a skip, send a photo of the driveway or the road space where it would stand.
- Charge
- £31 for the first item, £13.60 for each additional item (a corner sofa counts as two items); prices valid until 31 December 2026.
- Leave items
- Kerbside for houses, or the bin store area for flats, before 7am on collection day.
- Not taken
- Eight or more items, or heavy items such as sheds, greenhouses, Agas and trampolines, must be discussed first and are subject to an estimate; residential properties only; fee is non-refundable.
