Canvey's flat, open and easy to work: most jobs we can get on and off in a couple of hours. From single mattress collections to full house clearances.
Canvey Island is flat, largely below sea level and protected by sea defences, and bungalows make up a large share of its homes. Many date from the 1930s, when low-cost bungalows were built on former farmland across the island, and holiday chalets later became permanent homes. Kings Park and Thorney Bay, once holiday parks, are now residential park-home sites. Only two roads leave the island, meeting at Waterside Farm, and east-west routes are congested. Single-storey homes simplify moving bulky items, but collection timings need to allow for traffic.
The bag needs to be within about 4 metres of where the lorry can park, on your side of the wall. Roads near the front carry parking restrictions and get busy in summer, so skips there go on drives or forecourts wherever possible.
Because the bag sits on your own land, there's no licence from Essex County Council to arrange. Tell us when it's full and we collect within five working days.
We run Canvey jobs in batches when we can, which keeps the price down. Call the day before and we'll often slot you into a planned run.
