Jordan organized his crew to come and clear a mountain of rubbish from my back garden. A well overdue clearance all soggy and disintegrated and included a dead rat within..yuk. The lads did an amazing job. They were polite and courteous and worked flat out in the pouring rain. I can highly recommend them and will be using them again. I probably won't leave it so long next time though!

Our builders waste clearance service is used by homeowners doing their own renovations and by builders, plumbers, kitchen fitters, electricians and landscapers who need waste moving quickly. Our tipper vans are designed for heavy loads, and we do the loading ourselves, straight from where the waste has been stacked.

Local knowledge
Builders waste clearance in Littlehampton: what we know locally
Every town has its own quirks. These are the things that shape builders waste clearance jobs in Littlehampton.
Building and renovation
Renovation of Littlehampton's older terraces, along with extension work on the post-war houses, produces plenty of rubble, plasterboard and old fittings. A tipper van collection keeps the job moving without a skip taking up space on the street.
Homes in Littlehampton
The streets between the station, the high street and the seafront are dominated by Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many converted into flats. Beach Town has larger villas and seafront houses, while Wick, Toddington and the northern estates are mostly post-war semis and terraces. Riverside developments near the harbour add a newer layer of apartments. Each property type needs a different approach, and we plan for it at the quoting stage.
Parking and access
The town centre and seafront get busy, especially in summer, and some of the terraced streets have tight on-street parking. We time our visits to avoid the worst of it and keep the van as close to your door as the rules allow.
Local businesses
The riverside industrial units, boatyards and business parks around Littlehampton generate regular commercial waste, from pallets and packaging to office furniture and strip-out waste. We collect it with a waste transfer note so your duty of care paperwork is in order.

Residential builders waste
Home renovations create waste at every stage: stripped-out kitchens and bathrooms, knocked-through walls, old floorboards, plasterboard, tiles and packaging. We collect it from your home so that your project can keep moving.
On commercial sites, waste that is not removed quickly becomes a safety hazard and a cost. We provide one-off and regular collections for builders, developers, fit-out contractors and facilities managers, loading waste ourselves and keeping your site clear.
Plasterboard is one of the most common renovation wastes, and one of the most awkward. Because gypsum can produce hydrogen sulphide gas when it breaks down with biodegradable waste, it must not be landfilled with general waste. Many skip companies charge extra for it or refuse mixed loads.
Plasterboard and other gypsum-based waste must not be mixed with general waste going to landfill, because when gypsum breaks down with biodegradable waste it can produce hydrogen sulphide gas. That is why many skip firms charge extra or refuse mixed loads containing plasterboard.
We handle it properly. If you can keep plasterboard offcuts in a separate pile or bag, it makes the job quicker and cheaper, but we can separate it on site if needed. It is then taken for gypsum recycling.
Heavy waste and weight limits
Rubble, bricks, concrete, soil and tiles are heavy. A van reaches its legal weight limit long before it is full by volume, so heavy waste is priced differently from lighter mixed waste. If your job is mostly rubble, soil or hardcore, see our hardcore collection service.
Tell us roughly what the waste is made of when you send photos, and we will bring the right vehicle and give you an accurate price.

What affects the price of builders waste clearance in Littlehampton
We quote every job individually from photos, so you know the cost before we arrive. The main factors are:
Weight
Rubble, concrete and soil are priced by weight as much as by volume.
Volume
Lighter mixed waste is priced by how much van space it uses.
Plasterboard
Separated gypsum waste has its own disposal cost.
Loading
Waste that is bagged and stacked is quicker to load.
Frequency
Regular collections for trades can be priced as a package.
How to prepare
Stack waste in one area with clear access to the road or drive.
Keep plasterboard separate from other waste if you can.
Bag small rubble and tile waste to make loading quicker.
Tell us roughly how much is rubble, soil or concrete, as it affects the price.
Let us know about scaffolding, restricted parking or site rules.
Flag anything you think might contain asbestos before we arrive.
Responsible disposal
Where your Littlehampton waste goes
Builders waste is separated into inert waste (rubble, brick, concrete and soil), gypsum (plasterboard), timber, metal and general waste, then taken to the appropriate licensed facilities. Inert waste is often crushed and reused as aggregate, timber is recycled where possible, and metal is recycled.
Arun District Council provides household bin collections, a chargeable bulky waste service and a garden waste subscription, and the county council runs the household waste recycling sites. For a large or mixed clearance, or when items need carrying out of the property, a single visit from us is usually simpler.

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 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.

Such an amazing company! Communication was brilliant, the clean up was outstanding. Took everything little bit, was very pleased with the results. Also managed to fit me in very quickly which was a bonus! Will be using them again for sure! Thanks again guys.
A skip placed on the road in Littlehampton needs a permit from West Sussex County Council. A van collection avoids that altogether, because nothing is left on the highway.
Can you collect builders waste from a Littlehampton site every week?
Yes. We offer regular collections for builders and trades working in Littlehampton, so waste never builds up.
Do you take plasterboard from Littlehampton renovations?
Yes. Keep it separate from other waste if you can, and we will take it for gypsum recycling.
Do you charge more for Littlehampton because it is further from Worthing?
No. Littlehampton is within our regular coverage area, about twenty minutes from our base. Our price is based on the waste, its weight and the access, not a travel surcharge.
Can you clear a holiday let between bookings?
Yes. We can clear furniture, bedding, broken items and garden waste from holiday lets between guests. Give us your changeover date and we will work to it.
Do you take plasterboard?
Yes, but it must be kept separate from other waste. Bagging it separately makes the job quicker.
Is it cheaper than a skip?
For many jobs, yes. There is no permit fee, no waiting time, and you do not have to load it yourself.
Can you collect during the job, not just at the end?
Yes. Many builders book regular collections so the site stays clear.
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.
