How we price site clearance →Site Clearance in Witham: what to know
Witham expanded rapidly as a London overspill town from the 1960s, so most homes sit on planned estates either side of the railway, with industrial estates at Freebournes and Eastways and newer housing off Maltings Lane. The town's own recycling centre on Perry Road takes cars only, closes on Thursdays and does not accept DIY waste or rubble.
New housing in Witham is concentrated on the edges: Rivenhall Park off Forest Road, with 385 homes complete and a further 230 approved; Lodge Farm, masterplanned for 750 dwellings; New Gimson Place, a 78-home scheme; and Woodend Farm, with about 400 homes planned. The overspill estates are of an age that typically brings refurbishment and extension work. Newland Street lies in a conservation area, where demolition and external changes are more closely controlled, and Chipping Hill is the older of the two historic cores, so skip positions in both need agreeing in advance.
Access decides the method. On the industrial estates we can get the larger vehicles in, which keeps the price per tonne down for heavy or bulky loads. Send photos of the site and its entrance and we'll say which vehicle we'd bring to Witham: the caged truck with a crew, or the grab lorry for soil and hardcore.
You get a waste transfer note for every load that leaves, which developers, agents and planning conditions from Braintree District Council often ask for. Suspected asbestos is left in place and reported to you.
