Waste does seem to be going further and further afield nowadays you do wonder how they make it pay.Andrews are running muck Oxford way, I assume to Earthline but could be wrong. Not been on tippers properly since before easter.
Much preferring multi-drop to tippers; Leave the yard and once empty it’s time to go home.
There’s no tips in West London a fair few are running up to Oxfordshire but Andrews works all over the uk and will outbase lorrys on a job for however long needed

Andrews out based trucks all over if big jobs come up but there’s no muck tips in West London and lots are running up to Oxfordshire area with muck

That’s what the Firm running into us has done. Day cab lorries so they’re all in a hotel in town with the machine drivers etc. Think a lot of London’s waste has always gone a fair way either muck or rubbish just goes further when tips have eventually filled up.
lard:
I had 20 years of it as an O/D. I quit in 2010 as I was fed up with the “Hamster running in the wheel” feeling brought on by constantly having to buy your own job with ever more expensive truck replacements.As a job, it’s great if you like reading/audiobooks/sitting around waiting. I was home every night which suited too. Some late finishes if the site wasn’t ready or there was a breakdown so be mindful of that if you try and plan anything as sods law is that it’ll happen when you least need it!
Downsides:
You’ll feel hunted as the H&S culture of the big quarry firms is hell bent on catching the driver out.
Digging out stickers, never fun and you end up lathered in it.
Tack coat all over your pedals off your boots when you get out on site - makes driving a little interesting and it stinks.
Being whistled at like a dog by surfacing gangs - always annoyed me that.Go for it as a driver but don’t bother as an O/D would be my advice.
Agree with all that, especially the tack coat and sticky pedals part! 
Some surfacing gangs tend to treat drivers as sub-human anyway, always your fault if anything goes wrong or you are too early/too late. Many drivers who are used to carting stone or muckaway work find it hard running tarmac around, especially the waiting around part of it when they have been used to chasing their tail all day but your truck will probably make the gaffer more money and far less fuel used. Plenty of late finishes especially on Motorway jobs, all part of the job and you get used to it and just have to chill out and accept that your dinner will probably be eaten by your dog!

Yeah always has but on east side still a few tips just outside 25 everything West has filled up guess was traditionally the more wealthy side.
Lot of muck going out on train now.
Fair few of the West London paddy mafia are tipping in the yard and bulking it up to Oxfordshire on artics as with traffic etc it can’t pay to run out of london
Yep our lot send rubbish to Essex landfills when everywhere local has closed due to wind etc. See a lot of Fowles lorries, walking floors and highsided tippers, which I think are taking it Cambridgeshire way! Pretty sure a Paddy firm that used to run out of our place ran their Muck from north London to Oxfordshire somewhere
John mc daid or Thames material probably
McDaids’ run out Oxford way.
