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.

Clearing fly-tipped waste in Preston comes with specific logistical challenges, particularly due to the narrow back streets of Plungington’s red-brick terraces and the strict access controls around the City Centre one-way systems. Therefore, here is why we are the preferred choice compared to a DIY approach or traditional skip hire:
For example, in areas like the dense student housing near UCLan, placing a skip often requires a council permit and parking bay suspension. Instead, we use a “Wait & Load” service, meaning we arrive, load the waste immediately, and leave. This ensures no permits, no fines and furthermore, no blocked roads.
Fly-tipping often leaves a residue of broken glass, loose soil, or debris. Unlike a skip company that leaves the mess behind, our uniformed teams bring shovels and brooms so that the area is swept clean once the bulk of the rubbish is gone.
Illegal dumping can attract vermin and more waste if left unchecked. Therefore, we offer same-day collection slots to clear the hazard quickly, restoring safety and order to your property.
As an Upper Tier Waste Carrier, we provide a full Waste Transfer Note (WTN) for every job. So, this guarantees that you have disposed of the waste legally, protecting you from potential council fines.
Hiring a skip for fly-tipped waste is often impractical, especially when dealing with unknown volumes or mixed materials. Here is how we compare:
| Feature | The Rubbish Removers | Skip Hire |
|---|---|---|
| Labour | We Load Everything – You don’t lift a finger. | You Do All The Work – Heavy lifting required. |
| Permits | No Permit Needed – Our vans load and go. | £30-£50 Permit Fee – Required for on-road skips. |
| Driveway | Safe (Rubber Tyres) – No damage to surfaces. | Scratches/Cracks Paving – Heavy wagons can damage drives. |
| Speed | Gone in 60 Mins – Immediate clearance. | Stuck on drive for weeks – Attracts more dumping. |
What we take – We handle a vast range of waste streams often found in fly-tipped piles. Our teams are trained to assess the site for safety before removal.
General Waste
Black bags, loose household junk, old furniture and also cardboard.
Garden Waste
Piles of branches, soil, turf as well as old fencing often dumped in rural lanes.
Construction Debris
Inert Waste such as rubble, bricks, plasterboard and timber from rogue builders.
Hazardous Items
We can safely remove tyres and also certain appliances (subject to prior agreement and safety checks).
We have designed our process to be simple and transparent, ensuring you get your space back with minimal fuss.
1. Get a Quote: First, give us a call on 0161 339 7938 or WhatsApp a photo of the pile to 07802 860 731 so that we can provide a fast estimate.
2. Clearance: Next, our two-man team arrives in a tracked vehicle. Then, we assess the waste and use shovels and heavy-duty bags to clear the lot efficiently.
3. Sweep Up: After the heavy items are loaded, we then sweep the ground thoroughly to ensure all small debris and glass is removed.
4. Disposal: Finally, you receive a digital Waste Transfer Note instantly. Additionally, we transport the waste to a licensed recycling centre, ensuring high landfill diversion rates.

We operate a transparent pricing model based on volume and weight. You only pay for the space the waste fills in our van, not for “fresh air” as you would with a skip.

We work daily across Preston to keep the town clean. So, here are a few examples of our recent work:
– Fly-Tipping Recovery in Plungington
We cleared a large pile of mixed household waste and also old mattresses from a back alley behind a terraced row. Importantly, using our “Wait & Load” service allowed us to access the narrow lane where a skip wagon could not fit, thereby preventing further complaints from neighbours.
– Commercial Clearance at Preston Docks
A business unit required the urgent removal of office furniture as well as packaging left in a loading bay. Consequently, we arrived within 4 hours, cleared the obstruction and provided a VAT invoice and Duty of Care paperwork instantly.
– Renovation Debris Removal in Fulwood
We collected a pile of plasterboard and also rubble dumped on a private driveway. As a result, the homeowner avoided the Council’s strict ban on construction waste at the Tom Benson Way tip, receiving a legal and fast disposal solution.
We provide our services throughout Preston and also the immediate surrounding districts. Our local crews know the roads well, ensuring punctual arrival.
Yes. We regularly collect heavy Inert Waste that many other services refuse. Because we charge by weight for dense materials like bagged soil and brick, we can often offer a more efficient solution than a skip. Additionally, we handle all the heavy lifting for you.
Yes. If the fly-tipped waste includes a collapsed shed or timber structure, we provide full dismantling and removal as part of the service. Furthermore, our team has the tools to break it down safely.
Absolutely. A key part of our service is the “Sweep Up” promise. Not only do we remove the large items, but we also ensure the driveway, alley, or land is left broom-clean and presentable.
Only if you hire a skip that needs to go on the public highway. Because Preston City Council requires permits and often bay suspensions for on-road skips, this can take extra time and cost. However, our “Wait & Load” service keeps the van with the driver at all times, so no permit is required.
It can be difficult. The Council tip at Tom Benson Way (Ingol) operates a strict appointment-only system. Moreover, council bulky collections generally refuse construction waste such as rubble, plasterboard, and fixtures. By contrast, we take all of these items without strict limits.
