Really great service, the guys arrived on time and cleared my garden rubbish quickly and efficiently, despite it not being the nicest of rubbish! Left everything tidy and checked that all was ok before leaving. Would definitely recommend this business.

Why Choose Us for Garden Waste Collection in Lancashire?

  • Skip Hire Alternative: We are cheaper than a skip, require no permit fees and we do all the loading for you.
  • We Sweep Up: Once the bags of soil, branches and old turf are cleared, we also sweep your patio and driveway so it is completely clean.
  • Speed: We offer an emergency same-day response, which is ideal when your garden is overflowing and the local council collections are delayed.
  • 100% Green Waste Recycled: We are also committed to an eco-friendly approach, ensuring your garden waste is properly composted and old sheds are fully dismantled and recycled.

  • Garden: Bags of soil, turf, branches, old fencing and also heavy decking materials.
  • Sheds: Rotten wood, felt, glass as well as the complete contents of the shed. Full dismantling is included.

  2. Clearance: Our local crews know the Lancashire roads well and will arrive with shovels and also brooms to clear the lot, navigating the steep terraces or narrow cobbled streets with ease.

Typical Load Sizes & Pricing Guide

  • Single Item: Prices start from £80+VAT, equivalent to 10 to 15 bags. This is perfect for a small garden tidy-up or a few bags of heavy grass clippings.
  • Quarter Van Load: Roughly 20-30 bin bags or 2-3 cubic yards. In other words, this is equivalent to a dismantled 6×4 shed or a medium garden clearance.
  • Half Van Load: Roughly 6 cubic yards or 50-60 bin bags. Comparable capacity to a standard 6-yard builders skip, but with no permit fees and no skip sitting on your drive.
  • Full Van Load: 12-14 cubic yards, 100+ bin bags or an 800kg payload. A large capacity equivalent to roughly two standard 8-yard skips, ideal for large landscaping projects and full garden strip-outs.

Typical Jobs in Lancashire

  • Garden Waste in Chorley: We cleared a massive pile of green waste from a rural property near the West Pennine Moors via our Wait & Load service, helping the customer bypass the local council green bin charges.
  • Shed Dismantling in Blackburn: We removed an old, rotten shed as well as garden rubble from a steep terraced street, avoiding the absolute danger of chocking a skip on the severe incline.
  • Renovation Debris in Burnley: We cleared bags of soil and also heavy stone from the narrow, cobbled back streets of a 2-up 2-down terrace, where a modern skip wagon simply could not fit.
  • Landscaping Clearance in Preston: We quickly loaded heavy turf and branches from an affluent home in Fulwood, completely bypassing the strict appointment-only system at the Tom Benson Way Recycling Centre (HWRC).

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do you take bagged soil, rubble and bricks?
A: Yes, we absolutely do. We charge by weight as well as volume, making it easy for us to handle heavy inert waste from your garden that many others refuse.

Q: Do you dismantle sheds or garden structures?
A: Yes. Full dismantling and removal of sheds, decking and also fencing is a core part of our service.

Q: Will you clean up the mess afterwards?
A: Yes. We always sweep up after loading, ensuring your driveway or patio is left spotless and ready to use.

Q: Do I need a skip permit for Lancashire?
A: Only if you use a skip. Local councils in Lancashire require permits for skips placed on the road, which is often slow and costly. Our Wait & Load service requires no permit at all.

Q: Will the local council take my DIY or Garden waste?
A: Most councils have very limited services. For example, Chorley Council charges for green bin collections and many local tips operate on strict appointment systems while completely refusing bagged soil or rubble.

Q: Can you collect from properties with difficult access in Lancashire?
A: Yes. Our vans are highly mobile, allowing us to easily access properties on the steep hills of Blackburn or the narrow cobbled back streets of Burnley where skip wagons struggle.
