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.

We are The Rubbish Removers Ltd, also a family run business with over 20 years of experience, fully licensed (CBDU409710) to handle everything from overgrown brambles to dismantled sheds.
Furthermore, instead of waiting weeks for a green bin slot, call our North West team on 0161 339 7938 or WhatsApp us on 07802 860 731 for a fast, reliable response. We are also a Which? Trusted Trader and Trading Standards “Buy With Confidence” member, guaranteeing that your garden waste is disposed of legally and ethically, with 95% diverted from landfill.
West Lancashire is a diverse region, ranging from the rural lanes near Parbold and Burscough to the modern estates of Skelmersdale. This variety however creates specific logistical challenges for waste disposal. Also narrow country lanes often make skip wagon access impossible, while modern covenants in newer estates can restrict skips from sitting on driveways. Therefore our “Man and Van Clearance” service is the agile solution.
We are cheaper than a skip and require no permit fees. Our teams also arrive, load your garden waste immediately, and leave. So you don’t have to worry about a skip blocking your driveway or ruining your grass for weeks.
Furthermore unlike a grab wagon that leaves a mess, our professional 2 man teams provide all the labour. We also clear the waste and sweep the area broom-clean afterwards, leaving your patio or driveway spotless.
If you have had a weekend of gardening and your bins are overflowing, or you are tackling a project that needs clearing fast, we can also offer same day collection availability.
We take your environmental impact seriously. All green waste, branches, and turf we collect is taken to licensed transfer stations to be composted or recycled, therefore ensuring high Landfill Diversion Rates.

We also handle all types of garden and outdoor waste, including Inert Waste that the council often refuses:

Green Waste: Hedge trimmings, branches, leaves, brambles, and shrubs.
Hardcore & Soil: Piles of turf, baged soil, old bricks, paving slabs, and rubble.
Timber: Rotten fencing, old decking, trellises, and railway sleepers.
Garden Structures: We dismantle and remove rotten sheds, greenhouses, and playhouses.
General Junk: Old garden furniture, plant pots, trampolines, and fly-tipped waste.
1. Get a Quote: Give us a call, fill in our contact form, or WhatsApp a photo of your garden pile to 07802 860 731 so we can give a free quote
2. Clearance: Our uniformed team arrives in a scheduled slot. We also bring shovels, rakes, and brooms to clear the lot efficiently.
3. Sweep Up: Once the bulk of the waste is loaded, we sweep the area clean, therefore ensuring no mud or debris is left behind.
4. Disposal: You receive a digital Waste Transfer Note (WTN) instantly, proving your Duty of Care was met and the waste was disposed of legally.
We operate a transparent pricing model based on volume and weight. Therefore, you only pay for the space you fill, unlike a skip where you pay for fresh air.

Single Item: Prices start from £80+VAT. So ideal for a dismantled shed (6×4) or a specific pile of heavy branches.
Quarter Van Load: Roughly 20-30 bin bags / 2-3 cubic yards. Therefore perfect for a small garden tidy up or clearing a few fence panels.
Half Van Load: Roughly 6 cubic yards / 50-60 bin bags. Also, comparable capacity to a standard builders’ skip (6-yarder), but without the permit hassle.
Full Van Load: 12-14 cubic yards / 100+ bin bags. A large capacity equivalent to roughly 2 x standard 8-yard skips. Therefore, ideal for large landscaping projects or full garden clearances.
Get a Firm Price: Send a photo of your pile to 07802 860 731.
We cleared a large pile of brambles and hedge trimmings from a property with a long, narrow driveway. Our “Wait & Load” service meant we therefore didn’t block access for the homeowners, unlike a skip which would have obstructed the garage.
A customer needed a rotten 8×6 shed removing to make way for a new summerhouse. We dismantled the structure, removed the glass safely, and also swept the concrete base clean ready for the new build.
Following a landscaping project, a customer was left with heavy bags of soil. Since the local council collection refuses soil, we therefore loaded the heavy inert waste manually and provided a Waste Transfer Note for peace of mind.
We cover the entire West Lancashire district and surrounding villages, also ensuring prompt and reliable service.
Q: Do you take soil, rubble, and bricks? Yes. We are fully licensed to carry heavy Inert Waste like bagged soil and rubble. We charge by weight and volume, providing a convenient solution for landscaping debris that is often banned from standard council bin collections.
Q: Do you dismantle sheds or garden structures? Yes. Our teams carry tools to safely dismantle rotten sheds, greenhouses, and decking. We also handle the heavy lifting and ensure dangerous items like glass and rusty nails are removed safely.
Q: Will you clean up the mess afterwards? Absolutely. The “Why Us” factor for our customers commitment to tidiness. Therefore, we don’t just take the big items; we sweep up the loose leaves, soil, and sawdust, leaving your garden or driveway ready to use immediately.
Q: Do I need a skip permit for West Lancashire? Only if you hire a skip that needs to go on the public highway. Lancashire County Council also requires permits for skips on the road, which can be costly and slow to arrange. Our service uses a mobile van, so no permit is needed, saving you time and money.
Q: Will the Council take my DIY/Garden waste? Local council bulky collections often have strict limits. Most, including services in Lancashire, refuse construction waste, soil, and rubble. They also charge extra for garden waste collection. We take everything in one go, usually on the same day.
Q: Can you collect from properties with difficult access in West Lancashire? Yes. We know that many rural properties near Parbold or older terraces in Ormskirk have tight access. Our vans are more manoeuvrable than large skip lorries, allowing us to reach properties via narrow lanes or back alleys where a skip simply wouldn’t fit.
