Met refuse lorry on a farm…

Had a refuse lorry come onto a farm where I was working and well beware folks the passenger with his clipboard was very aggressive. Don't leave things in there way as they will just drive over what ever it is without a care. Luckily no one was injured on this occasion.

Hi Rick, please can you contact our office immediately at emily@dcw.co.uk or call 01392 361300 with some more information about where this occured so that we can investigate this incident as a matter of urgency?

We take incidents like this very seriously and endeavor to get to the bottom of this as soon as possible. We have a number of trucks on the road so we will need some more information to narrow this down.

Thank you,

Do not use, rip off!

Offered what looked like a competitive service via CheaperWaste but has proceeded to continually charge extremely dubious excess weight charges without any evidence. Doesn’t even bother to differentiate bin types and rarely sticks to scheduled pick up days. Avoid like the plague!!!

Dear Chris, your contract was with CheaperWaste Ltd not DCW - therefore you need to take this issue up with them please.
We would really appreciate if you would remove this review as it isn't a fair reflection of our company, CheaperWaste are a totally separate business to us. Thank you
