We arrange haulage and authorised disposal of Japanese knotweed waste for construction and residential sites in Coventry and Warwickshire.
Coventry’s knotweed tends to be found beside the River Sowe and the Sherbourne, along the Coventry Canal and on land that once held car and engineering works. Redevelopment of the city centre and of large employment sites on the outskirts has brought a good deal of it to light.
Once your contractor has dug it out, we arrange for the soil and plant material to be collected in covered vehicles and taken to a facility that has agreed to accept it.
Digging out knotweed usually produces far more soil than plant. We arrange haulage and disposal for excavated soil containing rhizome from sites in Coventry, quoted on the estimated tonnage, any soil analysis you hold and what the receiving facility needs before it will accept the load.

Larger excavations in Coventry can need several loads a day over a number of days. We plan the vehicle type, the number of movements and the loading arrangements with you, so the dig is not left waiting for a lorry and material is not stockpiled longer than it needs to be.
Former manufacturing land is the common thread. Soil from old works may need chemical analysis before disposal, and where it has been capped or built over, the quantity is hard to judge until excavation starts. We can quote on an estimate and adjust to the weighbridge figures.
The city is ringed by the A45 and A46, with the M6 to the north and the M69 and M40 close by, so large vehicles reach most sites easily. Inside the ring road, space is tighter and loading is planned around traffic management.
More about Japanese knotweed haulage.
In England, knotweed waste that cannot be dealt with on site must go to a landfill or incineration facility that holds the correct permit, and the site must be told in advance that the load contains knotweed. It has to be moved by a registered waste carrier, covered or enclosed so nothing can escape on the journey. The Environment Agency is the regulator.

Provide the collection location, estimated quantity, photographs and any available waste or site reports.
We review the material and determine what additional information, testing or classification may be required.
We investigate a suitable authorised disposal route and obtain appropriate transport pricing.
Following quotation acceptance, payment and necessary approvals, we coordinate collection with the appointed contractor.
Relevant waste movement records and receiving-facility documentation are collected for the customer.
We cover Coventry and take enquiries from Bedworth, Nuneaton, Kenilworth, Rugby, Warwick and Leamington Spa.
Where the extent of knotweed is uncertain until the ground is opened, we can price per tonne so that you pay for what is actually removed.
We do not publish fixed prices, because two loads of knotweed waste are rarely alike. The cost depends on the weight and make-up of the material, how it is classified, the distance to a facility that will accept it, the vehicle needed and how it will be loaded. Send us the details and we will prepare a quotation for your site.
