Very simple price structure. Our labour charges are £45ph no VAT on labour. Disposal charge depending on weight is £125 plus VAT per ton.[Min charge] Please note none of the disposal charge goes to us.

Answer
When our van is fully loaded. We then go to a charity of your choice and let then take as much as they can sell. There are two reasons for this.
