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.

In addition, we are a fully Environment Agency Registered carrier of waste, operating under licence number CBDU409710, and we take pride in being a Which?

We specialise in providing a rapid Skip Hire Alternative that works around the unique logistical challenges of Oldham. In particular, our teams understand that the town’s steep hills and narrow terraced streets make traditional skip placement difficult and often dangerous. As a result, we provide a complete lifting and loading service, meaning your staff can focus on their own work while we handle the heavy lifting. Furthermore, every collection is backed by a Waste Transfer Note (WTN) to ensure your business meets its legal Duty of Care and we maintain a 95% Landfill Diversion Rate to support your green credentials.
Running a business in Oldham comes with specific challenges, particularly regarding the town centre regeneration and the narrow access points of our historic industrial buildings. For this reason, our service is designed to maintain your business continuity by providing out-of-hours collections that keep your site operational. Moreover, unlike other providers, we are a Which? Trusted Trader and Trading Standards Approved “Buy With Confidence” member, ensuring you receive professional service every time.
Above all, compliance is our priority. Therefore, we provide secure WEEE Recycling for old IT equipment and computers, ensuring that hazardous components are handled correctly at licensed facilities. In addition, our uniformed teams are trained in manual handling and are respectful of your property, taking care to protect floors and walls while moving bulky furniture. We also provide instant digital VAT invoices and waste documentation, so your audit trail is always up to date.

Office Clearances
We remove desks, ergonomic chairs, filing cabinets and all types of IT equipment. In addition, we provide secure disposal for electronic waste to ensure full compliance.
Trade Waste
Ideal for contractors, we clear shop-fitting debris, timber, plasterboard, packaging and pallets from retail or industrial units. As a result, your workspace remains safe, tidy and ready for use!
Landlord Services
We provide rapid response for end-of-lease clearances. Furthermore, we remove fly-tipped rubbish from private land to help get properties back on the market quickly.
Retail & Hospitality
We offer frequent collections of cardboard, bulky packaging and old fixtures. Consequently, your stockrooms and shop floors stay clear, organised and customer ready.
1. Audit: First, start by calling us or sending a photo of your waste to 07802 860 731 for a quick, transparent quote. We can also provide on-site assessments for larger mill or office projects.
2. Schedule: We book a collection slot that suits your business hours, including early mornings or evenings by agreement to avoid peak commuter traffic.
3. Clearance: Our professional, uniformed staff arrive and clear the site efficiently. We handle all the heavy lifting and ensure the area is swept clean before we leave.
4. Paperwork: Then, you receive an instant digital Waste Transfer Note and a VAT invoice for your records, confirming your waste was disposed of legally.

Single Item
Perfect for a standalone bulky item like a large office printer or a single desk. For example, prices start from £80 +VAT.
Quarter Van Load
Equivalent to roughly 20–30 bin bags. In particular, this option is ideal for a small storage cupboard clear-out or leftover trade materials.
Half Van Load
Roughly 6 cubic yards, comparable to a standard builders’ skip. As a result, it is great for a small office move or a shop-front refurbishment.
Full Van Load
12–14 cubic yards with an 800kg payload. Therefore, this option is best suited for full office strip-outs or large-scale mill conversions.
You only ever pay for the space you use in our vehicles. This makes our service far more cost-effective than hiring a skip and paying for “fresh air” if you don’t fill it.
– Office Strip-out near Oldham Parish Church: We cleared three floors of old furniture via a service lift. In addition, we provided a Wait & Load service to avoid blocking the narrow street.
– Trade Waste Removal in Chadderton: A local shop refit required daily collections of timber and plasterboard. As a result, we provided a reliable same-day service to keep the contractors on schedule.
– Mill Apartment Clearance: We cleared old carpets and appliances from a high rise mill conversion. Furthermore, we navigated steep stairwells and tight corridors without damaging the walls.
– Fly-Tipping Recovery in Royton: We cleared a large pile of illegal waste from a private commercial car park. Consequently, we provided a full Waste Transfer Note for the landlord’s records.
