Stafferton Way will not take whole caravans — arrange Maidenhead caravan removal from £380
Stafferton Way accepts many kinds of household waste, but not a whole caravan. That leaves Maidenhead owners needing a proper collection service, especially when a touring caravan will no longer tow, a static needs breaking up, or a park or storage deadline is getting close. Scrap My Caravan removes touring and static caravans across Maidenhead and Berkshire. Prices start at £380 for a touring caravan that has its wheels, can be towed and is sound enough to survive the journey.
Why Maidenhead caravan owners need a specialist disposal service
A caravan is not simply an oversized item for the tip. It contains metal, timber, insulation, glass, wiring and sometimes batteries or gas fittings. A specialist must also check whether it can travel safely and whether the route out is usable.
Stafferton Way recycling centre does not accept whole caravans
The Stafferton Way Household Waste and Recycling Centre at Braywick does not accept whole caravans. Turning up with one behind the car will not solve the problem.
Scrap My Caravan collects from the place where the caravan stands. Depending on its condition, we can tow it, move it on suitable transport or dismantle it on site.
Amerden Caravan Park's 2026 closure may leave owners needing prompt removal
Amerden Caravan Park is closed for the 2026 season. Owners with a caravan still connected to the site may face a collection or clearance deadline.
Start early. A caravan that has not moved for some time may have flat tyres, locked brakes or hidden rot. Photos and an honest description help us plan the right method before a deadline becomes a scramble.
Tell us where the caravan is and how we can reach it
The caravan is only part of the quote. We also need to know how a vehicle and crew can reach it.
A touring caravan beside a wide drive is a simpler job than one behind a garage, through a tight gate or at the far end of a wet field. Show us the whole route, not just the caravan's best side.
Caravan removal in Maidenhead from homes, storage sites and holiday parks
We collect from homes, gardens, farms, yards, caravan parks and storage compounds. Tell us who controls the land and whether a manager must approve access.
Parks and storage sites may restrict collection times or ask for contractor details. Check these rules before booking.
Planning collection from soft or flood-prone Thames-side access tracks
Amerden and Hurley Riverside Park sit close to the Thames. Riverside tracks can become soft, muddy or flood-prone after heavy rain. A caravan may still roll while the recovery vehicle cannot safely reach it.
Send photos of the track, gates, turning space and ground around the caravan. Mention recent flooding or soft patches. Nobody wants the collection vehicle becoming the next item that needs rescuing.
Removing caravans from Hurley Riverside Park, Hurleyford Farm, Ferndale Park and nearby storage sites
We can arrange collection from sites such as Hurley Riverside Park, Hurleyford Farm, Ferndale Park and Cheval Stud Storage near Windsor, subject to permission and safe access.
There are also 22 secure caravan storage sites listed within 50 miles of Maidenhead. Wherever the van is stored, give us the site name, postcode, access rules and contact details for the person in charge.
How our caravan disposal in Berkshire works
We assess the caravan and access, confirm the price, then arrange the collection.
Send us the caravan details and collection postcode
Send the postcode, caravan type, approximate size and clear photos. Include every side, the hitch, wheels, inside and the full route to the road.
Tell us about damp, rot, missing panels, seized brakes, flat tyres, collapsed floors or previous dismantling. We cannot confirm a quote from one distant photo and a hopeful description of "not too bad".
Receive a clear quotation for removal
Touring caravan removal starts at £380. This base price applies only when the caravan has its wheels, is towable and is strong enough to make the journey safely.
A non-towable touring caravan usually costs about £500 to £800. We may need to break it up on site or transport it on a tow bed, which is the more expensive option.
Static caravan removal usually costs about £2,000 to £3,000 because we dismantle the unit and remove the waste. Where suitable timber can be burnt lawfully and safely on site, with the landowner's permission, the price may fall by a few hundred pounds.
All prices depend on condition and access and are confirmed at quote stage. Our rates are the cheapest in the UK.
Agree a collection date that suits the site
Once you accept the quote, we agree a date that works for you and the site. We are always busy and heavily booked, so book within 24 hours of receiving the quote. Leave it longer and the next available date may be several weeks away.
The quote will also set out any deposit and payment terms. Site permission must be in place before collection.
We remove the caravan for responsible processing
On the agreed day, we tow the caravan, use suitable transport or dismantle it on site, as set out in the quote. Reusable and recyclable materials are separated where practical, and proof of disposal can be provided.
What affects the cost of caravan removal in Maidenhead?
The £380 starting price covers a straightforward towable touring caravan. The final cost reflects the labour, equipment and disposal work needed.
Caravan size, weight and overall condition
Larger and heavier caravans take more time and disposal space. Condition matters just as much. A dry caravan that rolls and steers is far easier to remove than one with a sagging roof or rotten floor.
Static caravans cost more because they normally have to be dismantled where they stand.
Access restrictions, locked wheels and missing tyres
Narrow gates, tight turns, low branches, slopes and parked vehicles can affect the job. So can missing tyres, locked wheels and seized brakes.
Be completely clear about these problems. If the caravan is different from the photos or description, the method and price may need to change.
Distance from the road and equipment needed for collection
A caravan close to a firm road is easier to remove than one across a field or down a long track. Difficult sites may need extra labour, lifting equipment or a tow bed.
Photos of the full exit route help us quote accurately and avoid an unexpected puzzle on collection day.
Need to get rid of an old caravan that cannot be towed?
A caravan does not need to be roadworthy for removal. We only need its true condition before confirming the quote.
Damaged, damp and long-unused touring caravans
Damp can weaken floors, walls and roof joints. A caravan may look complete while being too fragile to tow.
We assess whether it can move in one piece. If it cannot, we quote for on-site dismantling or specialist transport.
Caravans with seized brakes, flat tyres or structural damage
Seized brakes and flat tyres are common. Structural damage needs more care because the body may twist or separate from the chassis during towing.
Send close photos of the hitch, wheels, corners, floor and damaged panels. The ugly photos are usually the most useful ones.
Partly dismantled caravans and incomplete shells
We can quote for stripped interiors, caravan shells and units that someone has already started taking apart.
Show us what remains, including loose panels, glass, appliances and waste inside. These items affect labour, loading and disposal costs.
Static caravan removal from difficult Berkshire locations
Static caravan disposal is a larger job. We normally break the unit up on site and remove the materials.
Site access checks before static caravan removal
We need the static caravan's size, condition and exact position. We also check gate width, road access, overhead cables, nearby buildings, ground strength and working space.
Photos are essential. A short video can help where the route is hard to show.
Static caravan disposal from parks, farms and private land
We remove static caravans from parks, farms, yards and private land across Berkshire. The usual price is about £2,000 to £3,000.
The confirmed quote depends on the unit, access, waste volume and whether machinery can work safely nearby.
When specialist lifting or dismantling may be required
Some static caravans can be reached by suitable machinery. Others sit behind buildings, on soft ground or in spaces where lifting is not practical.
We can dismantle these units in sections. Where lawful, safe and permitted by the landowner, burning suitable timber on site can reduce the price by a few hundred pounds. All other materials still need proper removal.
What happens during caravan scrappage?
Caravan scrappage involves separating materials rather than treating the unit as one lump of waste.
Removal of reusable parts and recyclable materials
Metal chassis parts, wiring and other materials may be recovered or recycled where their condition allows. Practical separation also reduces mixed waste.
Safe handling of fixtures, fittings and remaining waste
Caravans may contain batteries, gas bottles, glass, insulation, appliances and old furniture. Tell us what remains inside before we quote.
Remove personal belongings and unrelated household rubbish unless their removal is included in writing.
Responsible disposal of the caravan body and chassis
After towing or dismantling, the body, chassis and remaining materials go through suitable recycling and disposal routes.
We can provide proof that the caravan has been removed and processed.
Caravan collection across Maidenhead and surrounding areas
In a Maidenhead social media discussion, residents asking about a vehicle scrapyard were pointed towards Wokingham. A caravan needs a more specific service, particularly when it cannot be towed.
Windsor, Bracknell, Cookham, Hurley, Wokingham and Marlow
Scrap My Caravan collects in Maidenhead and nearby areas, including Windsor, Bracknell, Cookham, Hurley, Wokingham and Marlow.
We also cover other Berkshire locations, subject to access and booking availability.
Convenient access from Maidenhead via the M4 Junction 8/9a
Maidenhead's position near M4 Junction 8/9a helps with collection planning across the Thames Valley.
The motorway may be simple; the final 100 metres often are not. Show us the lane, gate, driveway or park track when requesting a quote.
Collections throughout the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead
We collect from homes, businesses, parks and storage sites throughout the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead.
Include any parking limits, gate codes, restricted hours or site rules with your enquiry.
Questions about caravan disposal and collection
Do I need the caravan registration documents?
Usually not. Touring caravans do not use the same V5 registration process as cars.
We may ask for proof that you own the caravan or have authority to dispose of it, especially for a park, storage site, inherited property or business collection.
Can you remove a caravan without wheels?
Yes. We can remove a caravan without wheels, but it will not qualify for the £380 towable touring caravan price.
It may need on-site dismantling or specialist transport. Send clear photos of the chassis and wheel area for an accurate quote.
Can you collect from a storage site or caravan park?
Yes, provided the site gives permission and our team can reach the caravan safely.
Confirm the site's collection hours, gate arrangements and contractor rules before booking.
How quickly can a caravan be removed?
Collection depends on location, access and our booking diary. We are heavily booked, so accept your quote within 24 hours where possible.
Tell us about any fixed site deadline when you enquire.
Do I need to be present during collection?
Not always. We may collect without you present when access is arranged, the correct caravan is clearly identified and the landowner or site manager has agreed.
Keys, gate codes and written permission must be organised before the collection date.
