Sound like shysters. They'd have known the dump would be closed when they agreed to it surely? Also don't they have their own premises? Where are they taking it, the local dump? Complain.
Was there a reason you didn't just get your builders to do it? We just get skips from Brewsters and the builders do the humping stuff out to the skip.
The other problem with waste removal firms is with half of them you don't know where it's going. Brewsters are ISO 9001 this and by appointment to the Queen that so you know it's legit, not ending up fly tipped in a lane in Kent somewhere which is what I suspect happens to half of it.
We've got our fourth skip coming today actually.

As someone who cycles through the lanes of Kent frequently, I can confirm this is the case.
Fuckers.

We didn't get our builders to do it because we're sick of them saying they'll do something at a certain time and then offering excuses, we're trying to direct jobs away from them so they finish everything by the end of June.
As for the skip, apparently they have a truck which comes round for building waste, and it was unexpectedly full so they couldn't make it to ours in time. No apologies offered, just demands to be paid now. They're licensed and registered and the rest of it.
We're properly at the end of our tether with our works now, so many of the jobs we've had so far are yet to be finished or need touching up that the whole thing is just a stressful and depressing mess, and getting fucked around like this with what should be straightforward tasks just compounds it.

Why are so many people in the trade absolute shyster cunts?
We had people round this morning to clear the waste from our back garden. There was a substantial amount of both loose bulky waste and building waste and we were told it would all be gone by 1pm.
I just got a call from my partner to say they've taken the bulky waste but are refusing to take the rest of it now and are saying the dump is closed, and want payment for the stuff they've taken or they're threatening to put it all back in the garden.
Why is it so hard to get someone to do a fucking job and see it through without ripping you off and being a cunt? Argh.
