Hardcore removal Lancing
Local hardcore removal in Lancing
Rubble, concrete, bricks, soil, paving and stone collected by tipper van, without a skip on your drive.
Hardcore and rubble removal in Lancing is one of our most requested heavy-waste services. Lancing is roughly three miles east of our Worthing base along the A259 coast road or the A27, usually a ten-minute drive. We collect concrete, bricks, soil and paving from gardens, driveways and building sites across North Lancing, South Lancing, Lancing village, Sompting and Cokeham.
Our tipper vans take heavy loads within safe weight limits, and clean inert waste from Lancing jobs is sent for crushing and recycling into aggregate rather than landfill.
A Star Waste Management provided a prompt and straightforward service from start to finish. Communication was clear, collection was arranged at a convenient time, and the waste was removed efficiently with no mess left behind. Polite, professional, and easy to deal with.
Checkatrade customer, Checkatrade review
Our tipper vans are designed for exactly this kind of load. We shovel, barrow and bag the hardcore ourselves, load it safely within the van's weight limits, and tip it at facilities where inert waste is crushed and recycled into aggregate for reuse.

Local knowledge
Hardcore removal in Lancing: what we know locally
Every town has its own quirks. These are the things that shape hardcore removal jobs in Lancing.
Building and renovation
Lancing's bungalows are popular for extensions and loft conversions, so we see a lot of building waste: rubble from knocked-through walls, old kitchen units, plasterboard, and hardcore from driveways being relaid. A tipper van means we can take heavy waste away without a skip sitting on your drive for a week.
Lancing gardens
North Lancing's houses often back straight onto the Downs, and the gardens across the town tend to be long and well established. We clear overgrown borders, old leylandii cuttings, rotten fence panels and sheds that have seen too many winters of sea wind. Garden waste goes to licensed composting, not landfill.
Parking and access
Access in Lancing is generally straightforward. Most roads have on-street parking without permit schemes and many properties have drives. The narrower lanes of the old village in North Lancing and the roads near the beach can be tight on busy summer days, so we plan the time of our visit around that.
Homes in Lancing
Much of South Lancing was built between the wars and in the decades after, so the typical Lancing property is a bungalow, a chalet bungalow or a semi with a drive. That is good news for a clearance: the van can usually park on the drive or right outside, and there are few stairs to deal with. Chalet bungalows do have steep, narrow staircases to the first-floor rooms and small eaves storage, which we allow for when we price.
What we take in Lancing
Every hardcore removal job in Lancing is different, but these are the items we collect most often:
Broken concreteSlabs, bases, paths and footings.
Bricks and blocksWhole or broken, including mortar.
RubbleFrom walls, chimneys and building work.
Paving slabsConcrete, stone and block paving.
Soil and clayLoose or bagged.
Stone and gravelIncluding shingle and flint.
TilesCeramic, porcelain and roof tiles.
TurfHeavy and usually priced with soil.
Kerbs and edgingConcrete kerbs and garden edging.
Bulk bagsWe can load and take away filled bulk bags.

Asbestos cementOld garage roofs, pipes and panels need a specialist.
Contaminated soilSoil with oil, fuel or chemicals needs specialist handling.
TarmacAsk us first, as it is handled differently.
PlasterboardIs not hardcore and must be kept separate.
The detail
Why weight matters more than volume
A van can only carry a certain weight legally, and hardcore hits that limit quickly. A bulk bag of broken concrete can weigh close to a tonne, and a pile of soil that looks small can take several trips. That is why hardcore is priced differently from general rubbish, and why it helps to tell us what the material is and roughly how much there is.
Clear photos with something for scale, such as a door, a wheelbarrow or a bulk bag, let us give you an accurate price and bring enough vans.
Clean inert waste is recycled
Clean hardcore, meaning concrete, brick, stone and rubble without timber, plastic or plasterboard mixed in, can be crushed and screened into recycled aggregate. That is why keeping hardcore separate from other waste matters: it keeps disposal costs down and makes recycling possible.
Soil is handled in the same way if it is clean. Soil mixed with rubble, roots or rubbish is still accepted, but may cost more to dispose of.

Weight
The main factor for hardcore.
Material
Clean inert waste is cheaper to dispose of than mixed.
Loading effort
Loose rubble needs shovelling; bagged waste is quicker.
Access
Barrowing from the back garden takes longer.
Number of trips
Large quantities may need more than one van load.
How to prepare
Keep hardcore separate from wood, plastic and plasterboard.
Pile it as close to the road or drive as possible.
Send photos with something for scale so we can estimate weight.
Tell us the material: concrete, brick, soil, tiles or a mix.
Let us know if it needs barrowing from the back garden.
Clear a space on the drive for the van if you can.
Responsible disposal
Where your Lancing waste goes
Clean hardcore is taken to facilities where it is crushed and screened into recycled aggregate. Soil is recovered where possible. Mixed loads are sorted at licensed transfer stations.
As in Worthing, residents are served by Adur & Worthing Councils for bins, bulky waste collections and the garden waste service, with county council recycling centres for self-delivered waste. We are the choice when you want it all done in one go without loading your own car.

Quoted a good price for some hardcore removal after breaking up a pathway. A Star came and removed the waste the next day. The lads were polite and got the job done quickly. Highly recommend.
AA Star customerCustomer review
Swift and efficient waste removal. Quick response from the team. Quoted the job from the photos I sent. They kept in communication with us, so we weren't hanging around. The guys worked quickly to clear the area, they were very professional. I highly recommend their service.
AA Star customerCustomer review
A Star are absolutely brilliant. Turn up when they say they will, are professional, friendly and helpful. And stick to their very reasonable quotes and would certainly use them in the future. Thank you A Star.
CChris J SimmoGoogle review
A Star Waste Management did a great job clearing a big pile of old decking from my garden. They were efficient, reasonably priced and the men were polite and respectful, and were mindful not to damage any of my plants. Would definitely use their service again.
TTerri WebbGoogle review
Fantastic service I highly recommend them, took a shed down yesterday rang them last night they were here first thing this morning to take it away along with other garden waste. Highly competitive rates but they don't cut corners. They swept and tidied up after themselves as well, I'll definitely use A Star in all my future jobs. Thank you.
Can you remove soil from a garden project in Lancing?
Yes. We collect loose and bagged soil from gardens across Lancing, often alongside turf and paving.
How quickly can you collect hardcore in Lancing?
Often within a few days, and sometimes the next day. Lancing is roughly three miles east of our Worthing base along the A259 coast road or the A27, usually a ten-minute drive.
Do you need a skip permit for hardcore in Lancing?
No. We load hardcore straight into our tipper van, so nothing sits on the road and no permit from West Sussex County Council is needed.
Do you charge extra to come to Lancing?
No. Lancing is a few minutes from our Worthing base, so there is no travel surcharge. The price depends on what we are taking, how heavy it is and how easy it is to reach.
Can you clear a bungalow in South Lancing in one day?
In most cases, yes. A typical two or three-bedroom bungalow clearance can usually be finished in a single visit, and larger properties may need a second van or a follow-up trip. We will tell you what to expect when we quote from your photos.
What counts as hardcore?
Concrete, bricks, blocks, rubble, stone, paving, tiles and similar inert materials. Soil is often collected alongside it.
How much hardcore fits in your van?
It depends on weight rather than space. Send us photos and we will tell you how many loads it is likely to be.
WhatsApp a few pictures of what needs to go and the route to the road. We reply with a clear, fixed quote, usually the same working day, and collections are often possible within a day or two.
