Are you a licensed waste carrier?

Yes — we are fully licensed by the Environment Agency (Waste Carriers Registry) and adhere to all waste-disposal regulations.

 

Is using your service cheaper than hiring a skip?

Often, yes — especially for smaller to medium amounts of waste. The cost depends on volume, type of waste and location, so we recommend you send photos and we’ll compare for you.

No, you don’t. Our trained crew handle all the heavy lifting, loading and clean-up so you can relax — we do the hard work for you.

Do I need to be at home when you collect the waste?

Not always. If your waste is accessible (e.g. driveway, garden, front of property) and you’ve sent us clear photos, we can often collect without you being on-site. We’ll confirm the price beforehand and send a photo once the job is complete.

Do I need to take the waste outside?

No, our team will carry the waste outside and load it into the van.
