Excellent service from Rubbish Removals. Arrived on time and considering they had a fair length down a long path to reach their truck, they removed quite a lot of kitchen appliances and a piece of furniture in next to no time. Would definitely recommend. Good price too, cheaper than local Council.

- Half Van Load: Roughly 6 cubic yards or 50 to 60 bin bags. Comparable capacity to a standard builders skip, but with no permit fees or blocked driveways.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do you take bags of soil, rubble and bricks?
A: Yes, we take heavy inert waste like bagged soil and rubble. We charge by weight as well as volume, handling the heavy lifting that many traditional council services refuse.
Q: Do you dismantle sheds or garden structures?
A: Yes, full dismantling and removal of wooden sheds, decking and fencing is a core part of our comprehensive service.
Q: Will you clean up the mess afterwards?
A: Yes, we also sweep up the area completely once the waste is loaded, leaving your Colne driveway or yard spotless.
Q: Do I need a skip permit for Colne?
A: You only need a permit if you use a traditional skip on a public road, which is slow and costly. Our Wait and Load service requires no permit whatsoever.
Q: Will the local council take my DIY or Garden waste?
A: Local council collections often refuse construction waste, bags of soil and rubble and they can charge extra for non-standard items. We take all of this in one simple visit.
Q: Can you collect from properties with difficult access in Colne?
A: Yes, our vans are highly mobile and perfect for navigating the steep hills and tight terraced rows common around Colne, where placing a skip is practically impossible.
