Where your waste actually goes

Waste collected by Apex is taken to licensed facilities, with reuse and recycling prioritised where suitable. The onward route depends on the material and the receiving facility; a waste transfer note is supplied for your records.

Why materials should be identified

Metal, wood, rubble, green waste, electricals and upholstered furniture do not all follow the same route. Describe each material in your enquiry, particularly appliances, mattresses and heavy or specialist items.

Reuse where suitable

Furniture and household items that are suitable for reuse can be kept apart from waste where arrangements allow. Condition and safety matter: not every unwanted piece can be donated or reused.

Licensed handling

Fridges, freezers and electrical equipment require appropriate handling. Upholstered furniture and other materials may also need specific disposal routes. These requirements are assessed before collection rather than treating everything as general waste.

Keep your records

Apex Clearances is licensed waste carrier CBDU027710. Check who is taking your waste and keep the supplied waste transfer note. A licence and paperwork do not replace the need to describe restricted or unidentified materials before collection.
