Items removed and quantity
The inventory for this job covered:
- Four desks
- Six chairs

Taken together, this amounted to an estimated 16–20 cubic yards of material. Personal data storage, network hardware containing data and confidential documents are excluded pending a separate approved disposal process.
Access and logistics
Handling this job needs to account for a shared building reception and timed loading bay; an agreed vehicle stopping point. Furniture may require safe disassembly where appropriate to work within these conditions.
How the clearance was completed
Four desks and the rest of the inventory were handled according to the access conditions noted above – a shared building reception and timed loading bay; an agreed vehicle stopping point. Furniture may require safe disassembly where appropriate to work within these conditions; personal data storage, network hardware containing data and confidential documents are excluded pending a separate approved disposal process.
Any reusable items are set aside for an appropriate reuse route where feasible, with the remaining waste going through authorised disposal channels.
Final cost and pricing factors
5 bids came in on this job, ranging from £520 up to £745, with the lower figure winning. The volume involved – an estimated 16–20 cubic yards of material – is a significant driver, alongside the access conditions already noted: a shared building reception and timed loading bay; an agreed vehicle stopping point.
