Rubbish chute sections are an essential component in construction waste management, enabling safe and efficient removal of debris from high-rise working platforms. Used extensively across scaffolding projects, building maintenance and general demolition works, each section forms part of a continuous vertical chute system, guiding rubbish from upper levels directly into designated skip containers below.
Constructed using a one-piece mould of tough MDPE and HDPE, these chute sections are designed for durability, shape retention, and resistance to weather-related stress. The channelled rim and thick plastic composition make them impact-resistant and stable under load — even in harsh UK conditions.
- Adaptable sizes - Choose 20", 22" or 30" systems depending on debris load and waste type.
- Full compatibility - Sections connect to top hoppers and side entry hoppers to form a complete chute system.
- Safe working height - Can be secured with frames to maintain system integrity above 10 sections.
- Supplied ready - Includes brackets, chains and wire rope fixings; extra accessories sold separately.
- Compact for storage - Stackable format simplifies transport between projects and reduces yard footprint.
Ideal for projects involving groundworks tools, site clearance, or internal strip-outs, rubbish chutes provide a compliant way of handling high-volume waste. They reduce manual handling risks, streamline site workflow, and prevent waste from collecting in unsafe areas. Whether used on scaffolding towers or attached to windows via fixing frames, these chute sections keep sites cleaner, safer, and more productive.

Rubbish chute systems are indispensable for multi-level site operations, giving workers a fast, gravity-driven disposal route. Their modular format allows teams to build chute runs to exact project heights, maintaining flexibility between small and large-scale jobs. Because they're lightweight and highly stackable, site managers can move entire systems with minimal effort and prep time.
Three standard sizes offer tailored performance: the 20” system is ideal for lighter waste or compact jobs, the 22” system suits mixed debris with reduced risk of blockage, and the 30” system accommodates bulky items such as timber offcuts or bagged waste. Each system includes chains, wire ropes, or carbine clips, depending on size, for secure interlocking.
- 20” system - Versatile for internal renovations or scaffold strip-outs with brackets and chains included.
- 22” system - Semi-rigid build provides extra resistance for rubble-heavy sites; supplied with carbine clips.
- 30” system - High-volume waste solution for strip-outs and structural demolition with wire rope securement.
- Fixing frames available - Use standard frames with scaffold structures or window frames for direct chute drops.
- Minimal maintenance - Wash down after use and store stacked to reduce damage or warping.
On groundworks projects or inner-city sites, managing construction waste quickly is vital. These chute sections help teams keep paths clear and maintain pace without compromising safety. Built for function over fuss, they’re one of the most practical additions to any groundworks or high-level waste operation.
