Refund & Cancellation Policy

At Waste Away Logistics, we strive to provide reliable and efficient waste management and clearance services. Because our services involve careful scheduling, vehicle dispatch, and prepaid disposal/tipping fees, we have established the following guidelines for cancellations, modifications, and refunds.

1. Garden Waste & Domestic Waste Collection

For on-demand, one-time clear-outs of garden clippings, household bags, and general domestic waste.

  • Cancellations & Rescheduling: You can cancel or reschedule your collection up to [24 hours] before your scheduled booking for a full refund.

  • Inaccessible Waste: If our team arrives and the waste is inaccessible (e.g., locked behind a gate, blocked by vehicles, or not at the agreed collection point), a [$X or £X] Call-Out Fee will be deducted from your payment, and the remainder will be refunded.

  • Contaminated or Unsafe Waste: If the waste contains hazardous materials that were not disclosed at the time of booking (e.g., asbestos, chemicals, loose batteries), Waste Away Logistics reserves the right to refuse collection. A call-out fee will apply, and you will be refunded the balance.

2. House Clearance & Small House Removals

For larger, multi-room clearances or moving services.

  • Cancellations & Rescheduling Notice: Due to the large volume of truck space and labor reserved for these jobs, we require more notice:

    • Greater than [48 hours] notice: Full refund of your deposit or payment.

    • Within [24 to 48 hours] of the job: A cancellation fee of [X% or $X] will be withheld to cover lost booking opportunities and staff scheduling.

    • Within [24 hours] or Same-Day cancellation: No refund will be issued, as teams and vehicles have already been allocated and dispatched.

  • On-Site Volume Adjustments (Clearances): If our team arrives and the volume or weight of the items to be cleared is significantly larger than what was described during the quoting process, we will provide an adjusted quote on-site.

    • If you decline the adjusted quote, the job will be cancelled, and a [$X] dispatch fee will be deducted from your refund.

3. Service Delays or Failures (Our Fault)

If Waste Away Logistics is forced to delay or cancel your service due to severe weather, vehicle breakdowns, or operational issues, we will contact you immediately to reschedule. If we cannot find a time that works for you, a 100% full refund will be issued.

4. How Refunds Are Processed

  • Method: All approved refunds will be credited back to the original payment method (Credit Card, Debit Card, or Bank Transfer). We do not issue cash refunds.

  • Timeline: Once approved, refunds typically take [5 to 7 business days] to reflect in your account, depending on your bank.
