Waste collection in Swansea
FRIDAY Our van is in the SA postcodes every Friday. Book it while it's passing.
Next Fridays:
Swansea has one WasteSpeed day a week: Friday. That is not a promise of "sometime Friday-ish", it is how the whole company works. One national loop, the same van in the same area on the same day, which is why a single item here costs £59 rather than the £100-plus a one-off van hire would need to charge.
Wales is quietly one of the best recycling nations on Earth, with household rates around 57 percent and a statutory target of 70. It got there with exactly the thinking we use: separate the streams, weigh what happens, publish the numbers. We are glad to run routes in a country that keeps score.

Swansea questions
What day do you collect in Swansea (SA postcodes)?
Every Friday. It is a fixed route day, the same every week, which is what keeps the prices fixed too. Type your postcode on the booking page and it shows the next available Fridays.
How much does waste collection cost in Swansea?
The same as everywhere on the loop: £59 for a single item, £20 per extra item, £119 to £289 for van loads, £199 for a piano. That includes the two person crew, all loading, transport, disposal fees and VAT. Pay on the day, nothing up front.
Do you really cover all SA postcodes?
Yes, the whole SA area is on the Friday route, town and rural alike, at the same fixed prices. If two people can carry it, book it in.
Where does it go after collection?
Loads from the Fri route are sorted at the depot: reuse first, then metal, timber, WEEE and green-waste recycling streams, energy recovery for the rest, landfill last. Wales is quietly one of the best recycling nations on Earth, with household rates around 57 percent and a statutory target of 70. You get photo confirmation when it's done.
