Commercial Waste Removal
Big Man provides reliable, fully compliant commercial waste removal services for businesses across the UK. From small offices to large commercial sites, we help organisations manage waste responsibly, legally, and efficiently. Our service is built around flexibility, transparency, and environmental responsibility, ensuring your business meets its obligations without disruption.
We understand that commercial waste is not one-size-fits-all. Volumes, materials, and collection requirements vary widely between sectors. That is why we offer tailored waste removal solutions delivered by trained professionals using authorised vehicles, supported by full documentation and clear communication at every stage.
What Is Commercial Waste Removal?
Commercial waste removal refers to the collection, transport, and lawful disposal of waste generated by business activities. This includes general waste, recyclable materials, bulky items, and non-hazardous operational waste that cannot be handled through domestic collections.
UK businesses have a legal Duty of Care to ensure their waste is stored, transferred, and disposed of correctly. Using a professional service ensures compliance while freeing your staff from managing waste logistics internally.

Why Choose Professional Commercial Waste Removal?
Better Than DIY Waste Handling
Managing waste internally increases risk, staff time, and compliance exposure. Professional removal ensures safety and legal certainty.
More Flexible Than Council Services
Council collections are limited in scope and frequency. We provide tailored solutions aligned with business needs.
More Efficient Than Skip Hire
Skips require space, permits, and manual loading. Our service removes waste directly, keeping sites clear and operational.

Big Man operates in strict accordance with UK waste legislation. We are a licensed and insured waste carrier, ensuring all collections are carried out lawfully.
Our service ensures:
- Compliant waste handling and transport

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does commercial waste removal cost?
Costs depend on the type and volume of waste, collection frequency, and site access. We provide fixed, transparent pricing agreed in advance, with no hidden fees. This allows businesses to budget accurately while avoiding unexpected charges associated with ad-hoc disposal or non-compliance.
Do you offer same-day commercial waste removal?
Same-day or next-day collections are often available, depending on location and waste type. This is particularly useful for urgent clearances, refurbishments, or unexpected waste build-up. Early contact helps secure rapid service.
Is your commercial waste removal legally compliant?
Yes. We are a licensed waste carrier and operate fully within UK waste regulations. All waste is taken to authorised facilities, and documentation is provided to meet Duty of Care obligations.
What happens to commercial waste after collection?
Waste is sorted and processed at licensed facilities. Recyclable materials are recovered wherever possible, while non-recyclable waste is disposed of responsibly. This reduces landfill use and supports sustainable waste management.
How does this differ from council collections?
Council services are limited and often unsuitable for commercial volumes. Our service is flexible, faster, and tailored to business needs, with full compliance support and professional handling.
Is commercial waste removal better than skip hire?
For many businesses, yes. There is no need for permits, on-site skips, or manual loading. We collect waste directly, keeping premises clear, safe, and professional in appearance.
