Local, licensed and genuinely easy to deal with
A Star Waste Management is a Worthing-based waste clearance company covering the Sussex coast from Chichester to Brighton. We collect household rubbish, clear houses, flats, garages and gardens, take away builders waste and hardcore, collect fridges and furniture, and carry out strip-outs and commercial clearances for local businesses.
What makes us different is how easy we are to deal with. You send a few photos on WhatsApp, we send back a clear price, and our team turns up when we say we will. We do all the lifting and loading, sweep up afterwards, and take everything to licensed facilities where as much as possible is recycled. It is why so many of our 170-plus Google reviews talk about quick replies, fair prices and a tidy finish.
A Star Waste Management did a great job clearing a big pile of old decking from my garden. They were efficient, reasonably priced and the men were polite and respectful, and were mindful not to damage any of my plants. Would definitely use their service again.

Rubbish removal across Worthing and West Sussex
Most people only think about rubbish removal when it has become a problem: the side passage is full, the garage door will not close, or a property needs to be empty by Friday. At that point, you want someone reliable who can come quickly, give you a straight price and deal with it properly. That is the service we have built A Star around.
We are based in Worthing, and our vans are out every weekday across the BN postcodes and west into Arun and Chichester. That local base means shorter travel times, more flexibility in the diary, and a team who know which roads have permit parking, which gardens can only be reached through the house and which towns have beach huts that need clearing every spring.

Meet the owner
Hi, I'm Jordan
Hi, I'm Jordan, the owner of A Star Waste Management, based right here in Worthing. For the past few years I have been helping people across Worthing and the surrounding towns with reliable, stress-free rubbish clearance and waste removal. Whether it is a full house clearance, a garden full of waste or just a load of junk you need gone, I want it to be easy.
A Star started with a simple idea: turn up when you say you will, give people an honest price, do the heavy lifting properly and leave the place tidier than you found it. It sounds obvious, but it is not what everyone experiences in this industry, and it is why so much of our work now comes from repeat customers and recommendations.
“Be part of the solution, not the pollution!”

Absolutely brilliant service, highly recommend. They saved me in a last minute fudge up and were an absolute delight, super quick job and great personalities, thanks lads
Arranged via WhatsApp, great pricing and all rubbish cleared professionally and efficiently. Staff were friendly and polite. Highly recommended, much cheaper than getting a skip and loading it yourself.
A Star Waste Management provided a prompt and straightforward service from start to finish. Communication was clear, collection was arranged at a convenient time, and the waste was removed efficiently with no mess left behind. Polite, professional, and easy to deal with.
Can't speak highly enough of this service. They were speedy, efficient and polite. Above all they were very reasonably priced. Thankyou so much guys I will be happy to recommend you to friends and neighbours.
Saw one of there trucks driving through Worthing, called the number today. Sent a picture of what we needed clear. They came back straight away with a price and were able to pick it all up on the same day. Really friendly team and great service. Will definitely be using this company again.
Jordan organized his crew to come and clear a mountain of rubbish from my back garden. A well overdue clearance all soggy and disintegrated and included a dead rat within..yuk. The lads did an amazing job. They were polite and courteous and worked flat out in the pouring rain. I can highly recommend them and will be using them again. I probably won't leave it so long next time though!
We used this company for the first time today, very responsive to messages and hard working guys. Cleared all rubbish we requested to be removed and we highly recommend them to anyone wanting a fast service, very reasonable price which saved us paying more for a skip! Will definitely be using them again.
Such an amazing company! Communication was brilliant, the clean up was outstanding. Took everything little bit, was very pleased with the results. Also managed to fit me in very quickly which was a bonus! Will be using them again for sure! Thanks again guys.
Doing it properly
More than a man with a van
A skip alternative that does the loading for you
For most household clear-outs, a man-and-van style collection is quicker and simpler than a skip. There is no permit to arrange if a skip would need to go on the road, nothing sitting on your drive for a week, no neighbours adding their rubbish, and no weekend spent filling it yourself. You pay for the waste we take, and the labour is included.
Several of our reviewers have said it was cheaper than a skip too. That is not true for every job, and for a long building project a skip can make sense. We are always happy to talk it through honestly.
Doing it properly: licensed, insured and recycled
Householders and businesses both have a legal duty of care to make sure their waste goes to someone authorised to carry it. If rubbish you have paid someone to take is later fly-tipped, it can be traced back to you. A Star is a licensed, insured waste carrier, and every load goes to authorised transfer and recycling facilities.
We sort as we load, separating metal, timber, cardboard, green waste and electricals so they can be recycled, and we set aside furniture and household items that are still usable wherever possible. Sofas and armchairs are kept apart because of the rules on persistent organic pollutants, and fridges go to specialist treatment where their gases are captured safely.
Homes, landlords and businesses
Our customers range from pensioners in Rustington clearing a garage to letting agents in Brighton turning around a student house, builders in Shoreham needing a site cleared, and shops in Worthing town centre stripping out before a refit. The approach is the same: understand the job, price it clearly, and do it well.
Business customers receive a waste transfer note with every collection, and we can work early, late or out of hours by arrangement so that your trading is not interrupted.


Questions
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers to the questions we are asked most. More on our FAQs page.
Can't see your question? Call 01903 962 492 or message us on WhatsApp.
All FAQsHow much does rubbish removal cost?
It depends on how much there is, how heavy it is, and how easy it is to reach. The quickest way to get an exact price is to send us a few photos on WhatsApp. We give a clear quote before we start, with no hidden extras on the day.
How quickly can you collect?
We often collect within a day or two, and sometimes the same day, but it depends on the diary. Tell us how urgent it is and we will give you our earliest slot.
Is it cheaper than a skip?
For most household clear-outs, yes, because the loading is included and you do not need a permit or space for a skip. For very large, ongoing building projects, a skip may suit better, and we will tell you honestly.
Do I need to be there during the clearance?
No. Many clearances are done while the family is elsewhere. We can arrange access through a key holder, agent or solicitor and send you photos when we have finished.
Why does sofa disposal cost more?
Because sofas and armchairs must now be disposed of by incineration under the POPs rules, which costs more than general disposal.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. A Star Waste Management is a licensed waste carrier and fully insured. All waste goes to authorised facilities.
Do you recycle?
Yes. We separate metal, timber, cardboard, green waste and electricals as we load, and set aside reusable items wherever possible.
Will you take things from inside the house?
Yes. We collect from any room, loft, garage, shed or garden, not just the kerbside. Just tell us about stairs and access when you get in touch.
