The Rubbish Removers provide a professional bulky waste collection service across Ormskirk and the surrounding West Lancashire villages. To begin with, we understand that disposing of large furniture locally can be challenging due to restrictions at the Abbey Reed recycling centre and heavy market traffic.
In addition, our fully licensed, uniformed teams handle all the heavy lifting for you by collecting oversized items directly from your upstairs bedroom or tight student flat. Furthermore, we divert almost all waste away from landfill to support a more sustainable and environmentally responsible approach. As a result, as a Which? Trusted Trader and Trading Standards Approved provider, we guarantee rapid response times, transparent pricing, and a thorough sweep-up afterwards. So, you can reclaim your valuable space safely today by choosing our trusted local waste removal experts.

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.

Furthermore, as a Which? Trusted Trader and Trading Standards Approved “Buy With Confidence” member, we guarantee transparent pricing, reliable service, and complete peace of mind.

To begin with, unlike the local council kerbside service, we come directly into your lounge, kitchen or bedroom. As a result, you never need to drag heavy furniture out into the street.
In addition, we take great care of your home throughout the process. Floors, walls and doorways are fully protected while our professional teams safely manoeuvre awkward items through tight Victorian doors and narrow staircases.
Furthermore, we offer AM or PM time slots, along with a quick call around 30 minutes before arrival so you are never left waiting. In many cases, same-day service is also available, which is ideal when working around busy Thursday and Saturday market traffic.
We do not just remove items and leave. Instead, we thoroughly sweep the area once the space is clear, leaving your room clean, tidy and ready to use immediately.

What We Take
SINGLE ITEM:
To begin with, prices start from £80+ VAT. This option is ideal for a standalone bulky item such as a fridge, sofa or wardrobe. In addition, it is significantly faster and more convenient than waiting for a council bulky collection.
QUARTER VAN LOAD:
This covers roughly 20–30 bin bags or 2–3 cubic yards. It’s great for clearing a box room, an under-stairs cupboard or a small pile of unwanted furniture.
HALF VAN LOAD:
This option provides around 6 cubic yards or 50–60 bin bags. For example, it offers a comparable capacity to a standard 6-yard skip and is ideal for a large master bedroom clear-out or a full living room suite.
FULL VAN LOAD:
This is our largest option at 12–14 cubic yards, holding 100+ bin bags or an 800kg payload. So, it’s perfect for full house clearances or removing multiple heavy items during an end-of-tenancy clean.
Customers only pay for the space they fill, unlike a skip where you pay for fresh air. Get a free quote by sending a photo of your items to 07802 860 731.
Student HMO Strip-out near Edge Hill: For example, we cleared heavy bedroom furniture via a rapid wait-and-load service to beat the July student turnover and help prevent neighbourhood fly-tipping. This was carried out near Edge Hill University, ensuring a fast and efficient turnaround for busy HMO landlords.
Victorian Villa Clearance in the Town Centre: We removed bulky sofas and also the carpets directly from an upstairs lounge in a Victorian property. As a result, we carefully timed our arrival to avoid gridlock during busy market days in Ormskirk.
Agricultural Property Clearance in Burscough: We collected old household appliances as well as some bulky waste from a rural property in Burscough, saving the customer a frustrating trip to the busy Abbey Reed tip and providing a far more convenient solution.
To begin with, give us a call on 0161 339 7938, fill in our online contact form or WhatsApp a photo of your bulky items to 07802 860 731 for a fast, no-obligation quote.
Next, our uniformed 2-man team arrives within your chosen time window. In addition, we’ll call you around 30 minutes before arrival so you know exactly when to expect us.
Then, we carefully disconnect appliances if required and safely carry everything out of your property. We also navigate tight hallways in stone-built cottages and student flats with care and professionalism.
You receive an instant digital Waste Transfer Note for complete peace of mind. We properly degas fridges where needed and ensure up to 95% of all collected furniture is recycled responsibly.

We provide rapid bulky collections across;
– Do I need to get the item to the ground floor?
No. To begin with, our professional 2-man team collects from upstairs bedrooms, basements or apartment buildings, doing all the heavy lifting safely for you.
– Do you take large or awkward items like American Fridges and Corner Sofas?
Yes. In addition, we have the right vehicles and tools to handle large items. We can also dismantle oversized furniture safely to get it through narrow doorways.
– Is your disposal legal?
Yes. Furthermore, we operate legally under the Environment Agency as a licensed waste carrier (CBDU409710). We also provide a digital Waste Transfer Note instantly upon completion.
– Does West Lancashire Borough Council collect from inside my house?
No. In contrast, the council operates a strict kerbside-only policy, which can be difficult for residents in Ormskirk’s terraced properties or upper-floor flats.
– I live on a narrow street in Ormskirk, can you still help?
Yes. As a result, we understand that parking around the town centre or near the university can be exceptionally tight. Our vans provide a highly mobile man-and-van clearance service that can access areas skip wagons cannot reach.
– Can I take my own sofa or fridge to the Abbey Reed tip in Burscough?
You can, however driving to Abbey Reed often involves heavy local traffic. In addition, the tip enforces strict van permit rules, meaning you may be turned away if you are using a hired or commercial-style vehicle.
