Man and van rubbish removal in Tiptree: what to know
Tiptree is a large village in the Colchester district, home of the Wilkin & Sons jam factory, made up mostly of post-war estates and bungalows off Church Road, Maldon Road and Kelvedon Road. It has no recycling centre of its own: the nearest are Colchester's at Shrub End and Witham's on Perry Road, each roughly 7 miles away.
Tiptree is a large village where the B1022 Colchester to Maldon road meets the B1023, with Church Road as its centre. It expanded considerably in the 1990s and 2000s, and detached bungalows are common on roads such as Newbridge Road, Oak Road and Anchor Road. The Barbrook Lane development adds houses, bungalows and a small number of apartments on the edge of the village. Bungalows mean few stairs to negotiate, and homes with driveways allow loading close to the door, which keeps most household and garden clearances simple.
For lanes and farm tracks around Tiptree, send photos of the entrance and tell us about width, surfaces and turning space so we can check vehicle access. The crew handles stairs, long carries and rear gardens; tell us about them when you book.
Our Environment Agency waste carrier registration is CB/DU308513. You receive a waste transfer note with the collection address, giving you a record of who collected the waste.
- Charge
- Electrical and white goods: £19 per item (£39 for fridges and freezers). Other large household items such as beds, sofas and wardrobes: £77 for up to six items, £100 for six to twelve items.
- Leave items
- Left on the kerbside outside the property by 7am, in clear view, not in communal areas; crews will not enter garages or properties.
- Not taken
- No glass or mirrors (must be removed before collection); no tins of paint; payment is non-refundable.
