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.

No Skip Permits Required: Manchester City Council strictly prohibits placing skips on the road in many City Centre zones and also requires expensive permits for residential streets in areas like Didsbury or Chorlton. Our service acts as a perfect Skip Hire Alternative. Moreover, we arrive in tracked, agile vehicles that can navigate narrow Victorian terraced streets and “Wait & Load” legally, meaning you never have to worry about permit fees or suspending parking bays.
We Do The Hard Work & Sweep Up: Garden projects generate heavy, messy waste. However, unlike a skip where you have to wheelbarrow everything yourself, our two-man teams do all the heavy lifting. Therefore, we carry bags of soil, drag heavy branches and dismantle structures for you. Crucially, we don’t just clear; we also sweep up afterwards. Therefore, we leave your patio, driveway or alleyway broom-clean, ensuring no mud or debris is left behind.
Emergency Same-Day Response: If you have cut down vegetation over the weekend and the council tip at Longley Lane is fully booked or turning away rental vans due to strict ANPR enforcement, we can help. We also offer same-day or next-day collections to clear your garden immediately, preventing piles of waste from killing your grass or attracting pests.
100% Green Waste Recycling: We are also committed to a greener future. Thereofore, we divert 95% of the waste we collect from landfill. Green waste is taken to licensed transfer stations to be turned into compost and wood from sheds or fencing is recycled. You also receive a Waste Transfer Note (WTN) for every collection, proving your Duty of Care has been met.

1. Get a Quote: Give us a call on 0161 339 7938 or fill in our online contact form. Additionally, you can WhatsApp a photo of your garden pile to 07802 860 731. We provide a free quote based on volume.
2. Clearance: Our uniformed team arrives in Manchester within a specific time slot. We also bring shovels, brooms and heavy-duty bags to clear the lot efficiently.
3. Sweep Up: Once the van is loaded, we also sweep the entire area clean, ensuring your garden or driveway looks spotless.
4. Disposal: You receive a digital invoice and Waste Transfer Note instantly. Moreover, your green waste is taken to a licensed Recycling Centre (HWRC) for composting.
Our pricing is based on the volume of waste we remove. Therefore, you only pay for the space you fill, unlike a skip where you pay for fresh air if you don’t fill it.
• Single Item: Ideal for a dismantled shed (6×4) or a small pile of hedge trimmings. In other words, this is equivalent to roughly 10-15 bags.
• Quarter Van Load: Perfect for a general garden tidy-up, old fencing panels or a small patio rip-out. Roughly 20-30 bin bags.
• Half Van Load: Comparable to a standard builders skip (6-yarder). In short, this is great for a garage clearance or clearing an overgrown medium sized garden.
• Full Van Load: A massive 12-14 cubic yards capacity (approx 2 x standard 8-yard skips). Therefore this is perfect for large landscaping projects or full garden clearances.

• Green Waste Clearance in Fallowfield: We cleared a large accumulation of brambles and branches from a student property. The narrow gated alleyways prevented rear access for a skip. Therefore, our team manually carried the waste through the side gate, leaving the shared path clear.
• Shed Dismantling in Didsbury: We dismantled and removed a rotten 8×6 shed from a family home. The customer had a high-value resin driveway, so we used a “Wait & Load” service to ensure no heavy skip damaged the surface.
• Soil Removal in the City Centre: A ground floor apartment renovation required the removal of 30 bags of soil. Because or the strict parking enforcement on the main road, our driver utilised a loading bay while the team rapidly loaded the inert waste, avoiding any fines.
We cover the entire Manchester area and surrounding suburbs. We are frequently in:
Yes. Unlike many council collections that refuse construction debris, we clear heavy inert waste. We also charge by weight and volume, making us an ideal solution for landscaping projects where you have dug up turf or old patios.
Yes. We also offer a full dismantling service. Moreover, our team comes equipped with tools to safely take down rotten sheds, greenhouses and decking. We also handle the wood, glass and felt, ensuring everything is disposed of safely.
Only if you use a traditional skip. Manchester City Council requires permits for skips placed on public highways and they strictly prohibit skips in many City Centre zones. However, our Man and Van Clearance service uses a “Wait & Load” approach, meaning we park temporarily to load, requiring no permit and saving you money and paperwork.
It can be difficult. The council’s free collection often has long waiting lists (4+ weeks) and also strictly limits or charges for DIY waste like rubble and fencing. Furthermore, visiting tips like Longley Lane or Reliance Street often requires pre-booking and strict adherence to vehicle limits, which can be a headache if you are renting a van.
Yes. We know that many areas, like the terraced streets of Fallowfield or Rusholme, have narrow back alleyways that are inaccessible to large skip lorries. Our teams are physically fit and used to carrying waste from rear gardens to our vehicle, solving access issues that would otherwise stall your project.
