Why Choose Us for Garden Clearance in Wigan?

In Wigan, managing garden waste on your own can be a logistical nightmare. The local recycling centres, such as Kirkless in Ince or Slag Lane in Leigh, often have long queues and strict restrictions on “inert waste” like bagged soil and rubble. Additionally, if you drive a van or a pick-up, you often need a specific permit just to enter the site. Therefore, we offer a stress-free alternative.

• Skip Hire Alternative: Hiring a skip in Wigan often requires a costly permit from Wigan Council, especially if you live in a “back-to-back” terraced street where road space is tight. Moreover, our vans are mobile, arrive for a specific window and require no permits.

• We Do The Heavy Lifting: You don’t need to drag muddy branches or heavy bags of soil to the curb. Our teams come into your garden, clear the pile and load the van for you.

• We Sweep Up: We pride ourselves on leaving your property tidy. Once the bulk of the waste is gone, we sweep the patio, driveway or path so you are left with a clean slate.

• 100% Green Waste Recycled: We also prioritise environmental responsibility by taking all green waste to licensed transfer stations and converting it into compost or biomass.

Typical Load Sizes & Pricing Guide

Our pricing is transparent and based on volume and weight. Unlike a skip, where you pay the same price even if you only half-fill it, with us, you only pay for the space you use.

Single Item

Prices start from £80+VAT. Ideal for removing a single dismantled shed (6×4) or a specific pile of fencing panels.

Quarter Van Load

Roughly 2-3 cubic yards. Therefore this is perfect for a small garden tidy-up or clearing out a corner of the patio.

Half Van Load

Roughly 6 cubic yards (approx. 50-60 bin bags). Comparable to a standard builders skip but without the permit fee or the risk of neighbours filling it overnight.

Full Van Load

12-14 cubic yards. In other words, this is equivalent to two large skips. Suitable for major landscaping projects, large garden clearances, or full shed and greenhouse removals.

Recent Jobs in Wigan

We are in the Wigan area daily helping homeowners and landlords reclaim their outdoor space.

• Garden Waste in Standish: We cleared a large pile of hedge trimmings and turf from a semi-rural property. The customer chose our “Wait & Load” service because the council’s collection service could not keep up with the volume of waste.

• Rubble Removal in Ince: A customer renovating a terraced property needed soil and bricks removed. Because the street was a classic “back-to-back” layout with no space for a skip, our van reversed into the rear alleyway and cleared the debris in under an hour.

• Shed Removal in Orrell: We dismantled and removed a large, rotten wooden shed. Although the customer worried about the mess, our team raked the area and swept the concrete base clean while taking all the wood and glass for recycling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do you take soil, rubble and bricks?

A: Yes. We are licensed to carry heavy inert waste. While the local recycling centre at Kirkless has strict limits on how much soil or rubble you can bring, we can clear large piles for you. We charge based on weight and volume, saving you multiple trips to the tip.

Q: Do you dismantle sheds or garden structures?

A: Yes. Our teams use professional tools to dismantle rotten sheds, greenhouses, and decking safely. We also handle all heavy lifting and remove wood, glass and felt responsibly.

Q: Will you clean up the mess afterwards?

A: Absolutely. The “We Sweep Up” promise is a core part of our service. Whether it is mud from a lawn clearance or sawdust from a shed removal, we sweep your driveway and paths clean before we leave.

Q: Do I need a skip permit for Wigan?

A: Only if you use a traditional skip that needs to be placed on the road. Wigan Council enforces strict permit rules for skips on public highways. Because we use a “Wait & Load” service, we park only long enough to load and leave straight away, removing the need for a permit. This is particularly useful in terraced areas like Ince or Pemberton where parking is premium.

Q: Will Wigan Council take my DIY/Garden waste?

A: The council’s bulky waste collection service is helpful for furniture but has strict exclusions. They generally refuse construction waste, large bags of soil and dismantled garden buildings. Furthermore, if you take these items to the tip in a borrowed van, site staff may refuse entry without a pre-registered permit. We take it all, same-day, with no paperwork headaches for you.

Q: Can you collect from properties with difficult access in Wigan?

A: Yes. We know that many properties in Wigan, especially the older terraced rows, have narrow rear access. Our vans are easier to manoeuvre than large skip wagons. We can access tight lanes and alleys that larger vehicles simply cannot reach.
