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.

Our Sheffield Waste Removal service is the ultimate Skip Hire Alternative for residents across the Steel City. Sheffield is famous for its steep hills, such as those in Crookes or Walkley, where skip wagons often struggle to safely drop a heavy container. A skip sat on a gradient can be a hazard, and if you don’t have a driveway, you will face the extra cost and delay of a council permit. With this in mind we use nimble, tracked vehicles that can navigate narrow lanes and hills with ease, operating on a ‘Wait and Load’ basis that requires no permit at all.
Unlike the local council bulky collection, which is often expensive and limited to specific items, we take everything in one go. In addition, we don’t just clear the waste; we provide a full ‘We Sweep Up’ promise. If our team has to carry bags of soil or branches across a patio or driveway, we will sweep the area thoroughly before we leave. We can even offer a full dismantling service for old, rotten sheds or dilapidated decking, saving you the hassle of doing the dangerous work yourself.

1. Get a Quote: Firstly, call our local team, fill in our online form, or WhatsApp a photo of your garden waste to 07802 860 731.
2. Clearance: Next, our uniformed two-man team arrives in a scheduled window and clears the waste directly from your garden or yard.
3. Sweep Up: Once your waste us loaded, we use shovels and brooms to clear any remaining debris, ensuring we leave your outdoor space tidy.
4. Disposal: Finally, you receive a digital Waste Transfer Note (WTN), confirming your waste is being handled legally at a licensed facility.
• Single Item: Ideal for a standalone bulky item such as a garden bench or a small pile of 10-15 bags. Prices start from just £80+vat.
• Quarter Van Load: Equivalent to a dismantled 6×4 shed or a small garden tidy-up. Roughly 20-30 bin bags.
• Half Van Load: Comparable capacity to a standard 6-yard builders’ skip. But no permit fees and no skip sitting on your drive.
• Full Van Load: A large 12-14 cubic yard capacity, equivalent to two standard skips. Perfect for large-scale property clearance projects.
You only pay for the volume you fill in our van, so you never have to pay for “fresh air” as you would with a half-empty skip.

Shed Dismantling in Crookes: We dismantled and cleared a rotten timber shed from a property on a steep terrace, where a skip would have blocked the narrow road.
Garden Tidy-up in Dore: Our team cleared three years of overgrown brambles and branches from a large garden, providing a same-day service to then prepare the site for landscaping.
Old Fencing Clearance in Ecclesall: We cleared a large amount of storm-damaged fencing and also decking, sweeping the driveway clean to protect the customer’s high-value paving.
We provide full garden waste coverage across the entire Sheffield area and surrounding districts, including:
Dore and Totley
Fulwood and Ranmoor
Ecclesall and Nether Edge
Hillsborough and Stannington
Crookes and Walkley
Woodseats and Meersbrook
Handsworth and Woodhouse

Q: Do you take soil, rubble, and bricks?
A: Yes, we handle heavy inert waste. We charge based on weight and volume for these materials and our team handles all the loading but we do require it is bagged up in manageable rubble sacks prior to collection.
Q: Do you dismantle sheds or garden structures?
A: Yes, full dismantling and removal is a core part of our service. in Short, we safely handle rotten wood, felt, and glass, leaving the base clear and ready for a new structure.
Q: Will you clean up the mess afterwards?
A: Absolutely. Our “We Sweep Up” USP means we leave your patio, driveway or garden path broom-clean, even if we have been moving muddy waste.
Q: Do I need a skip permit for Sheffield?
A: Only if you choose a traditional skip. Because we use a “Wait and Load” system with our own vans, we are gone within the hour and require no permit from Sheffield City Council.
Q: Will Sheffield City Council take my DIY/Garden waste?
A: Most councils have strict limits. Sheffield Council often refuses waste such as heavy soil, rubble or dismantled sheds in their standard bulky collection.
Q: Can you collect from properties with difficult access in Sheffield?
A: Yes. We are experts at navigating Sheffield’s famous hills and also narrow back lanes. Our vans are much more mobile than skip lorries, allowing us to reach properties where others cannot.
