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.

• Skip Hire Alternative: Skips in Leeds can be a nightmare to organise, especially if you live in a terraced property in Harehills or a permit zone in Headingley. Therefore, we offer a “Wait & Load” service, meaning you don’t need a permit and we are gone within 60 minutes.
• We Sweep Up: Garden clearance is messy work. Once we have loaded the branches, bags of soil and old furniture, we also sweep your driveway or patio clean. We take pride in leaving the area tidier than we found it.
• Speed: We offer an emergency same-day response where possible. If you have a pile of waste that needs to go before a landscaping project begins, we can often collect it within 24 hours.
• 100% Green Waste Recycled: We are committed to diverting waste from landfill. All green waste we collect is taken to licensed transfer stations to be composted and recycled.

• Garden Clearance in Headingley: We cleared a large pile of end-of-tenancy waste as well as old furniture from a student property. Using a “Wait & Load” service, we avoided the need for a road permit in this busy permit-controlled zone.
• Rubble Removal in Harehills: A customer was renovating a back-to-back terrace and had bags of heavy soil and bricks. Since the council tip charges for inert waste, we collected the lot from the back lane in one go.
• Shed Dismantling in Morley: We dismantled and removed a rotten 8×6 shed. The customer had no rear access for a skip, so our team carried the panels through the side gate without damaging the property.
• Decking Removal in Roundhay: We removed 20 square metres of rotten decking. The timber was loaded straight onto our van, leaving the patio beneath swept and ready for the new installation.
We cover the entire Leeds metropolitan area as well as the surrounding towns in West Yorkshire. Our local crews are in your area daily:
Q: Do you take bagged soil, rubble and bricks?
A: Yes. We know that Leeds City Council tips charge residents for disposing of inert waste like bags of soil and also rubble. However, we collect these heavy materials as part of our service, charging simply by weight and volume.
Q: Do you dismantle sheds or garden structures?
A: Yes. Our teams also carry the tools to dismantle sheds, greenhouses and rotten fencing safely. Therefore, we handle the demolition and the removal in one visit.
Q: Will you clean up the mess afterwards?
A: Absolutely. We guarantee to sweep up after the clearance. Whether your driveway is paved or tarmac, we ensure it is left broom clean and free of mud or debris.
Q: Do I need a skip permit for Leeds?
A: Only if you hire a skip that needs to sit on the public highway. With our Man and Van Clearance service, we load the vehicle immediately (“Wait & Load”), so no permit is required. This saves you time and money dealing with the council.
Q: Will Leeds Council take my DIY/Garden waste?
A: Leeds City Council has strict limits on DIY waste and also charges for bags of rubble or soil at household waste recycling centres. They also generally refuse to take construction debris in standard bulky collections. We take it all.
Q: Can you collect from properties with difficult access in Leeds?
A: Yes. We frequently work in areas with difficult access, such as the back-to-back terraces in Harehills or properties with narrow driveways in Horsforth. Our vans are more mobile than large skip lorries and can access tight spots easily.
