It sets out how concerns about services such as garden waste clearance, rubbish removal and site tidying are handled promptly, fairly and transparently. Our aim is to ensure every issue is managed professionally, with the emphasis on clear actions and satisfactory outcomes.
Scope: This procedure applies to all service queries, including but not limited to garden clearance in Soho, soho garden clearance, small-scale debris removal and larger clearance contracts. It covers complaints raised by property owners, tenants, agents or authorised representatives regarding workmanship, scheduling, site condition, disposal practices or communication. The process ensures impartial review while remaining mindful of environmental and safety considerations.
How to Raise a Complaint
To make a complaint about any rubbish removal Soho activity or garden clearance operation, you should set out the nature of the concern, relevant dates, and any evidence available such as photographs or job references. Complaints should be submitted as soon as reasonably possible after the event. The information provided will be used to confirm the facts and to begin the investigation. Complaints that are vague or incomplete may require follow-up questions to clarify key points.Acknowledgement and Initial Response
On receipt of a complaint we will acknowledge it in writing within a defined period. The acknowledgement will outline the next steps, the name of the person managing the complaint and an estimated timeframe for a full response. Typically, a preliminary response should be expected within 7-10 working days of acknowledgement unless complexity or third-party involvement requires additional time.Investigation: Each complaint is reviewed by a designated complaints officer or senior member of the operations team responsible for the relevant service area. The investigation will collect statements, site reports and any photographic evidence. If the complaint concerns disposal procedures or environmental compliance, the relevant waste handling records and licences will be reviewed to determine whether policies and legal obligations were followed.
Assessment and Findings
Once the facts are established, a written summary of the findings will be prepared. This summary will explain the causes identified and whether any breaches of service standards occurred. If a shortfall is found, the summary will include proposed remedial actions and timelines. If no breach is found, the explanation will clarify the reasons and reference the standards applied in the assessment.Remedies and Resolutions: Possible outcomes include corrective site visits, reworking of clearance tasks, schedule adjustments, or other reasonable steps to put matters right. In cases where the complaint relates to billing or service scope, adjustments may be offered following a documented review. The approach is to provide proportionate remedies that restore service expectations and address any legitimate inconvenience caused by the original issue.
Escalation and Appeals: If the complainant is not satisfied with the proposed resolution they may request escalation to a senior manager for independent review. An escalation will be acknowledged and a further investigation undertaken by an appropriate manager. Final internal decisions are issued in writing and will explain the rationale. External review options, such as third-party mediation, may be referenced where agreed by both parties and appropriate to the dispute.
Record-Keeping and Confidentiality: All complaints, investigations and outcomes are recorded and retained for organisational learning and to demonstrate compliance with service standards. Records are treated as confidential and access to them is limited to staff directly involved in handling or reviewing the complaint. Personal data is processed in accordance with applicable data protection expectations and retained only for as long as necessary for operational reasons.
Equality of Treatment: Every complaint is handled without discrimination. We commit to fair treatment of complainants and staff and will make reasonable adjustments to support accessibility. Where language, mobility or other access issues are a factor, alternative arrangements will be considered to ensure full participation in the complaints process.
