The Wigan hub

Wigan sits in the middle of Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Merseyside, which between them hold a big share of the UK's installers and fabricators. We run several vehicles out of Wigan on daily routes, so most trade customers can get same-day collection.

There are a lot of fabricators in Bolton, Wigan, Oldham and Rochdale, and the social housing stock across the ten Greater Manchester boroughs keeps a steady flow of old frames coming out. From Wigan we reach Manchester, Bolton, Preston, Warrington, Liverpool and St Helens within the hour.

Questions about the Wigan hub

Is same-day collection really available in Greater Manchester?
Yes, for most trade postcodes within an hour of the hub, if you book before midday. We run several vehicles from Wigan at once.
Which postcodes does the Wigan hub cover?
WN, BL, M, SK (north), OL, BB (south), PR, WA, L (north), and parts of LA. Outside that range we route via Chester, Haslingden, Stoke-on-Trent or Rotherham.
Do you work with Greater Manchester councils and housing associations?
Yes. Planned window-replacement programmes across the ten boroughs, with full duty-of-care paperwork, eWTNs within 24 hours and annual recycling reports for your returns.
Can you place storage cages on a Wigan-area fabrication site?
Yes. From 1m³ stillage cages up to 20 yard roll-on roll-off containers, emptied weekly or fortnightly. Clean offcut loads are rebated by the tonne.
What if my postcode is on the boundary with Liverpool or Preston?
Every postcode is routed from one hub. Most of Merseyside runs from Wigan. Preston and Lancaster split between Wigan and Haslingden depending on which vehicle is nearest that day.

There are more answers on the FAQ page and in our guide to waste transfer notes for installers.
