The Rubbish Removers Ltd provides professional Garden Clearance in Bolton, offering a faster alternative to skip hire.

Friendly, professional and quick service! Tom and Barry were great calling me half an hour before arriving, and observed all social distancing regulations etc, and Richard was very helpful on the phone fitting me in same day. Overall very satisfied and would recommend.
GraceyAbsolutely brilliant! The two lads were quick and efficient with big smiles on their faces, despite the cold. Twenty four hours from the initial enquiry, the job was completed. That’s proper service.
GrahamThey did an excellent job and cleared my Mums flat quickly. I would recommend them to everyone and I would use them again. My mum had recently passed away so it was a difficult time but they were also understanding of the circumstances.

A Hassle-Free Skip Hire Alternative: In areas like Horwich and Blackrod, the steep gradients and narrow cobbled access roads often make placing a skip dangerous or impossible. Additionally, in the terraced streets of Farnworth, skips require expensive council permits and can attract fly-tipping from neighbours. However, our “Wait & Load” service eliminates these issues completely. We arrive, load your garden waste immediately and leave. Therefore, no permits are required and your driveway isn’t blocked for days.
We Do The Hard Work & Sweep Up: Garden clearance is physically demanding, involving heavy bags of soil, wet turf and thorny branches. Unlike skip hire, where you have to wheelbarrow everything yourself, our two-man teams also handle all the manual labour. Moreover, we bring our own shovels, rakes and brooms. Once the bulk of the waste is loaded, we also sweep the area thoroughly, leaving your patio or driveway spotless.
Emergency Same-Day Response: If you have a pile of waste that needs moving urgently, perhaps a landscaping project has gone wrong or you need the garden clear for a viewing, we also act as an emergency service for waste. Moreover, we can often provide same day collection, saving you from a trip to Raikes Lane tip, which is notorious for weekend queues backing up onto the main road.
100% Green Waste Recycled: We are also committed to a greener future. We also ensure that 95% of the garden waste we collect, including hedge trimmings, branches and bagged soil, is diverted from landfill and taken to licensed recycling centres to be turned into compost or biomass.

We offer transparent pricing based on the volume and weight of the waste we remove. Unlike hiring a skip, you only pay for the space you fill.
• Single Item: Prices start from £80+VAT. In short, this is ideal for a dismantled shed (6×4) or a small pile of hedge clippings.
• Quarter Van Load: Roughly 20-30 bin bags / 2-3 cubic yards. Therefore, this is perfect for a general spring garden tidy-up.
• Half Van Load: Roughly 6 cubic yards. In other words, this is comparable to the capacity of a standard builders skip, without the permit fees. Therefore, this is great for removing old decking or fencing.
• Full Van Load: 12-14 cubic yards / 100+ bin bags. Equivalent to 2 standard 8-yard skips. Suitable for large landscaping projects or overgrown garden clearances.

• Garden Clearance in Heaton: We cleared a large volume of green waste and old turf from a semi-detached property. Because we used a “Wait & Load” service, we kept the shared driveway clear, avoiding disruption to neighbours.
• Shed Dismantling in Horwich: Our team dismantled and removed a rotten 8×6 shed from a property with steep access. The customer avoided skip hire as a wagon could not safely access the cobbled back street.
• Renovation Debris Removal in Farnworth: We collected a mix of bagged soil, rubble and old paving slabs from a terraced house. Because the property had no front garden for a skip, our van loaded directly from the street in under 45 minutes.
We cover the entire Bolton metropolitan borough and immediate surrounding districts, including:
Yes. We are fully licensed to carry heavy inert waste. Moreover, we charge by weight and volume, making us a perfect solution for landscaping projects where you have piles of heavy material that the council bulky collection refuses.
Yes. Our teams carry tools to safely dismantle rotten sheds, greenhouses and broken decking. We also remove the wood, glass and roofing felt, leaving you with a clear base.
Only if you hire a skip that needs to be placed on a public road. This is common in Farnworth and town centre terraces where off-road parking is scarce. With our service, you do not need a permit because we load the van immediately and drive away.
It can be difficult. Bolton Council’s bulky collection service has a strict limit of 5 items and specifically refuses “fixtures and fittings” or DIY rubble. The Raikes Lane tip is an option, but they strictly monitor for trade waste and queues can be very long on weekends. We take everything in one go, including the items the council bans.
Yes. We know that areas like Horwich and Blackrod have steep hills and narrow cobbled lanes that are inaccessible to large 18-tonne skip wagons. Therefore, we use 3.5-tonne Luton vans which are much more agile and can reach properties that heavy goods vehicles cannot.
