Bed Bug Item Removal on Crofton Road, SE5 – Treated and Wrapped Items Collected in Peckham

MM Rubbish Clearance collected items from a house on Crofton Road, Peckham, SE5 after a bed bug problem. The client had already sanitised the items and wrapped them in blue plastic, and left them in the front garden. Our operators loaded them still wrapped and left the front garden clear, a few minutes from the first photo to the last.

Will a Rubbish Clearance Company Collect Bed Bug Items?

Yes, once the items are ready to go. We're a licensed waste carrier, not a pest control company, so we don't treat bed bugs. On Crofton Road the client called us about the bed bug items once they had been sanitised and wrapped, and our operators came to take them away.

Before: the sanitised items, wrapped in blue plastic in the front garden on Crofton Road, SE5, at 9:38am.

How Should Bed Bug Items Be Prepared for Collection?

Have them treated first, then seal them. The client on Crofton Road sanitised the items and wrapped them fully in blue plastic before we arrived, and put them in the front garden ready to go.

That made the collection simple. Our operators carried the items to the van still wrapped, without opening or unwrapping anything. Nothing had to come through the house on the day.

Where Do Wrapped Bed Bug Items Go After Collection?

The load was collected within the London Borough of Southwark and taken to a licensed waste transfer station. A digital Waste Transfer Note was issued under our Environment Agency registration CBDU418527 (Carrier Dealer – Upper Tier).

How Long Did the Bed Bug Collection Take?

A few minutes. The before photo was taken at 9:38am and the after photo at 9:41am. Because everything was already wrapped and waiting at the front, it was a quick load.
