Accessibility Statement for Business Waste Removal Kingston upon Thames
This accessibility statement applies to our business waste removal service in Kingston upon Thames and explains how we strive to make commercial waste collection Kingston upon Thames accessible to everyone.

This site and our service information pages are designed with screen reader access in mind. We test content with common assistive technologies to help ensure that navigation, service descriptions and booking information are conveyed accurately to people using screen readers. We use clear headings, consistent structure and semantic HTML to improve compatibility with a wide range of assistive devices and software.
We aim to ensure keyboard navigation works across our online resources and booking flows for business waste removal in Kingston upon Thames. Keyboard users can tab through links, buttons and form fields, and we provide visible focus styles so the current element is always apparent. Where complex interactive components exist, we include appropriate ARIA roles and labels to enhance usability for non-mouse users.

We aim to avoid jargon and long, dense paragraphs so that pages are easier to parse by both humans and automated tools. Where possible, images are accompanied by descriptive captions and contextual text to provide equivalent information.
Our compliance approach follows a structured process: regular accessibility reviews, user testing with diverse participants, and remediation of identified barriers. We prioritise issues that affect the most users and those that block essential tasks such as obtaining pricing, scheduling a collection or accessing service policies. WCAG 2.1 AA criteria serve as our baseline and are integrated into content creation and development checklists.
