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
Hiring a skip in the Ribble Valley can be a logistical nightmare, especially if you live down a narrow country lane or in a stone terrace where road space is limited. Therefore, we provide a “Wait & Load” service, which avoids expensive permit fees and prevents damage from heavy skip wagons. In practice, we arrive, load the waste immediately and leave, simple and efficient.
We Sweep Up
Fly-tipping and outdoor waste often leave a mess behind. Unlike skip companies that simply haul a container away, our two-man teams come equipped with shovels and brooms. As a result, we don’t just remove the bulk items; we sweep the area afterwards, leaving your land, driveway or access road spotlessly clean and safe.
Emergency Same-Day Response
Illegally dumped waste attracts more dumping if left unattended. Therefore, we offer a same-day or next-day response to clear the problem immediately. In effect, we are the “Emergency Service” for waste, helping you restore security to your property without delay.
Fly-tipping Prevention & Compliance
As an Upper Tier Waste Carrier, we provide a full audit trail. Importantly, using an unlicensed “man and van” puts you at risk of a £5,000 fine if that waste is fly-tipped again. Consequently, we issue a digital Waste Transfer Note instantly, proving your Duty of Care is met and that the waste is being disposed of at a licensed recycling centre.

What We Take
– We handle a vast range of outdoor and heavy waste streams. Our team is trained to handle:
Including black bags, mattresses, tyres, old furniture and mixed piles of unknown junk.
Such as old fencing, decking, branches, soil and turf. Importantly, all green waste is 100% recycled.
We also provide full dismantling of rotten sheds, greenhouses and playhouses, including the safe removal of glass and felt.
This covers bricks, rubble, plasterboard and also bathroom rip-outs, ensuring all debris is cleared efficiently.
1. Get a Quote – Give us a call on 0161 339 7938 or you can also WhatsApp a photo of the pile to 07802 860 731 for a fast, no-obligation estimate.
2. Clearance – Next, our uniformed team arrives in a tracked vehicle. Using shovels and other equipment, we remove the waste quickly and efficiently.
3. Sweep Up – Then, once the bulk has been cleared, we sweep the area to remove glass shards, nails and other loose debris.
4. Disposal – Finally, you receive your Waste Transfer Note instantly via email and the waste is transported to a licensed transfer station for sorting and recycling.
We operate a transparent pricing model based on volume and also weight. So, you only pay for the space you fill, unlike a skip where you pay for fresh air if you don’t fill it.
Starting from £80 + VAT, this option is ideal for a dumped mattress, fridge or a small pile of bags (approximately 10–15 bags).
Typically, this covers 20–30 bin bags or 2–3 cubic yards. As a result, it’s equivalent to a dismantled 6×4 shed or a small garden tidy-up.
With a capacity of roughly 6 cubic yards (50–60 bin bags), this is comparable to a standard builders’ skip but without the permit hassle. Therefore, it’s perfect for clearing a garage or a medium fly-tip pile.
Finally, offering 12–14 cubic yards (100+ bin bags), this is equivalent to roughly two standard 8-yard skips. As a result, it’s ideal for large clearance projects or heavy renovation waste.

In this case, we cleared a large pile of renovation rubble and black bags dumped in a rear access lane. To avoid blocking the narrow road, our team hand-balled the waste into the van, thereby resolving the issue for residents in under an hour.
Similarly, a local landowner needed urgent removal of mixed waste fly-tipped near a gate. As a result, we responded same-day, removed tyres and timber and provided full documentation to help the owner secure the site.
A resident required the removal of old furniture and also garden tools. Because the driveway was steep, a skip was not an option. Therefore, our Wait & Load service cleared the garage and swept the floor clean, without damaging the resin drive.

We cover the entire Ribble Valley district and also the surrounding villages, providing rapid response to rural and semi-rural locations including:
Do you take soil, rubble and bricks?
Yes. We regularly collect inert waste such as bagged soil, rubble, and bricks. Because this material is heavy, we charge based on weight and volume. As a result, it is often faster and easier than hiring a skip, especially if you don’t have a private driveway for placement.
Do you dismantle sheds or garden structures?
Yes. In addition, we offer a full dismantling service. We have the tools to safely take down rotten sheds, greenhouses or damaged fencing. Then, we load the timber and glass directly onto our vans and sweep the base clean afterwards.
Will you clean up the mess afterwards?
Absolutely. Importantly, this is a core part of our service. Fly-tipping often leaves small debris such as nails, glass or paper behind. Therefore, we sweep the area thoroughly before leaving, ensuring it is safe for vehicles and pedestrians.
Will the local council take my DIY/garden waste?
No. Most council household waste collections have strict limits. Furthermore, construction waste like rubble, plasterboard or soil is often refused and bulky collection slots can take weeks to book. Therefore, we take these items immediately and handle all the heavy lifting for you.
Can you collect from properties with difficult access in Ribble Valley?
Yes. Because many properties in the Ribble Valley are accessed via narrow lanes, steep hills or unmade tracks, our 3.5-tonne Luton vans are far more manoeuvrable than large skip lorries. As a result, we can reach areas that others simply cannot.
