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.

When you choose our team we provide a seamless skip hire alternative that is perfectly suited to the local landscape. South Ribble features a mix of traditional terraced streets as well as modern estates where driveway space is often at a premium. Because traditional skip lorries often struggle with narrow access points or require expensive permits to sit on the road, our “Wait and Load” service is the ideal solution for residents who want the waste gone immediately.
We provide a complete service where we do all the heavy lifting and dismantling of the shed or greenhouse for you. Many local residents find that DIY removal is difficult because the local Recycling Centre (HWRC) often has strict rules regarding construction waste and dismantled sheds. We arrive, dismantle, load and then drive away, ensuring that we leave your garden spotlessly clean. Our commitment to fly-tipping prevention means you can rest easy with confidence your waste is dealt with legally and ethically.

We handle a vast range of outdoor items during a shed removal, ensuring that we sort all materials for recycling.
Sheds: I.e. Wooden sheds, metal sheds, greenhouses, rotten timber, felt roofing and glass windows.
Shed Contents: Such as old lawnmowers, rusted tools, broken garden furniture and general junk.
Garden Waste: Including old fencing, decking, branches and green waste.
DIY Waste: I.e. Bricks, paving slabs, and leftover renovation debris stored in the shed.

1. Get a Quote: Firstly, give us a call or WhatsApp a photo of your shed to 07802 860 731. We provide a fixed price based on the volume and weight of the waste.
2. Clearance: Our two-man team arrives in a specific window and carries out the full dismantling and loading.
3. Sweep Up: Then, once the shed is removed, we sweep the area to remove any leftover wood chips, felt, glass, or grit.
4. Disposal: Finally, you receive a digital Waste Transfer Note (WTN) instantly, confirming your Duty of Care has been met and the waste is destined for a licensed facility.
Single Item: Perfect for a small standalone item such as a fridge, a lawnmower or a few bags of garden waste. Prices start from £80+vat.
Quarter Van Load: Equivalent to a small 6×4 dismantled shed. This is ideal for a standard garden tidy-up.
Half Van Load: Comparable to a 6-yard builders’ skip. Perfect for larger sheds or those packed with old furniture.
Full Van Load: Large 14-cubic yard capacity. Suitable for multiple structures or heavy garden renovations.
You only pay for the space you fill in our vehicle, making this a much more cost-effective option than paying for a skip that might sit half-empty on your driveway.

Shed Removal in Penwortham: We dismantled a rotten timber shed and cleared its contents via our Wait and Load method to avoid blocking a narrow residential street.
Garden Clearance in Leyland: A customer needed a large summer house removed from a modern estate. We provided a same-day response, ensuring the driveway remained clear for their cars.
Shed Dismantling in Bamber Bridge: We cleared a dilapidated shed and old fencing from a terraced property, navigating tight rear access that would have been impossible for a skip wagon.
We provide comprehensive coverage across the borough of South Ribble and the immediate surrounding districts, including:
Leyland
Penwortham
Bamber Bridge
Walton-le-Dale
Lostock Hall
Farington
Longton

Q: Do you take soil, rubble, and bricks?
A: Yes. We handle inert waste including bagged soil, bricks and paving slabs. Because we charge by weight and volume, we provide a flexible alternative to skips for heavy garden materials.
Q: Do you dismantle sheds or garden structures?
A: Yes. Full dismantling and removal of sheds and greenhouses is a core part of our service. You do not need to break the shed down yourself; our 2-man team handles the entire process safely.
Q: Will you clean up the mess afterwards?
A: Absolutely. We pride ourselves on our “We Sweep Up” promise. We will leave your garden or patio spotless once the removal is complete.
Q: Do I need a skip permit for South Ribble?
A: You only need a permit if you choose a traditional skip to be placed on the road. In contrast, when you use our service, we load the van and leave immediately, meaning no permit is required.
Q: Will the local council take my dismantled shed?
A: Most councils, including those serving South Ribble, have strict limits on bulky collections and often refuse items like sheds, soil or fence panels. We take everything in one go.
Q: Can I take my own shed waste to the local tip?
A: You can, but sites like Tom Benson Way in Preston or Buckingham Way in Chorley often require appointments and have strict “Van Permit” restrictions. Our service saves you the hassle of multiple trips and vehicle hire.
