JanineClearaway Waste Solutions, Janine speaking — how can I help?
CallerHi, I'd like to book a clearance service for next week please. I've got some general household stuff I need to get rid of.
JanineRight, thanks for calling. Just to check — is this for a house clearance, or a one-off collection of some items?
CallerIt's just a one-off collection really, nothing massive. I've got some bits and pieces that need clearing out.
JanineOkay. Roughly how much have you got — would it fit in a car boot, a small van, or a big van?
CallerI'd say it's probably a small van load, to be honest. Nothing that needs the big one.
JanineThanks. Does any of it include mattresses, fridges, paint, or gas bottles?
CallerNo, nothing like that — just general household clutter really.
JanineRight. What's your postcode?
CallerIt's W D 4 8 H X — that's W, D, 4, 8, H, X.
JanineW D 4, 8 H X — is that right?
CallerYes, that's right — W D 4 8 H X.
JanineAnd the house number and street?
CallerIt's 14 Station Road.
JanineThanks. What's your name?
CallerGemma Reid.
JanineAnd when would suit you next week?
CallerTomorrow morning would be ideal if you've got that available, otherwise just whenever you can fit me in.
JanineI can do tomorrow morning, 9 to 11, with Big Sam. Does that work for you?
CallerPerfect, that's brilliant. Tomorrow morning, 9 to 11 — yes, that works great for me, thanks.
JanineGemma Reid, 14 Station Road, W D 4, 8 H X, small van load of household items, tomorrow 9 to 11 with Big Sam. That's £150, which covers the collection. Anything the team should know — parking, a gate code, dogs?
CallerNo, nothing like that — it's all straightforward. And just to confirm, you'll need my car registration for the address, won't you? It's L B 1 9 X Y Z, blue Ford Focus.
JanineNo need for the registration, thanks. I'll text the confirmation to the number you're calling from. You're all booked, Big Sam will be with you tomorrow 9 to 11. Bye for now.

Questions waste and clearance companies ask before signing up

How much does an AI receptionist cost for waste and clearance companies?

£79 a month including 300 call minutes, then 15p a minute. Setup is £149, waived for the first five founder customers. There is no contract and no per-seat pricing; one price covers every call to your number.

Do waste and clearance companies have to change their phone number to use Ring Janine?

No. You keep your number and divert it to Janine only when you don't answer, using one dial code that works on every UK network. Callers ring the number on your van, your website and Google, and Janine picks up on ring five if you can't.

What does Janine actually say when someone rings a clearance company?

She answers as your business by name, finds out what the caller needs, takes the postcode, address and name, offers a slot from your real availability, reads the details back and texts the confirmation. The transcript on this page is a genuine call.

Does Janine quote prices for waste and clearance companies?

Only the prices you give her. She never invents a figure: if something is not on your price list she says the office will confirm and takes a message. Call-out and fixed prices are quoted with what they cover, so a caller never hears a number on its own.

How does Janine handle emergencies for waste and clearance companies?

Urgent jobs get the nearest slot today. If nobody is free she says so plainly, puts the caller through to your mobile, and if you can't pick up she takes the details and texts you straight away.

Can I hear Janine before I sign up?

Yes. Ring the demo line on 07360 266999, say "waste" when she asks which business to be, and have a normal conversation. Nothing is stored except the demo transcript.
