Typical Load Sizes & Pricing Guide

Our pricing is transparent and based on volume. You only pay for the space you fill, unlike a skip where you pay for fresh air.

Single Item: Prices start from £80+VAT. Ideal for removing a specific large item like a piano or American fridge freezer alongside a clearance.

Quarter Van Load: Roughly 20-30 bin bags. Perfect for clearing a box room or a small cellar.

Half Van Load: Roughly 6 cubic yards (approx. 50-60 bin bags). Comparable to a standard builders’ skip, but we do the loading.

Full Van Load: 12–14 cubic yards. Also, it’s equivalent to roughly 2 x standard 8-yard skips. Therefore, it’s suitable for full house clearances.

Recent Jobs in Wigan

We know Wigan’s layout well, from the mining terraces to the semi-rural outskirts.

Probate Clearance in Ince: We cleared a “back-to-back” terraced property. Because skip placement would have blocked the rear access road, our “Wait & Load” service was essential to clear the renovation debris and old furniture without causing neighbourhood disputes.

End of Tenancy in Standish: A landlord needed a rapid turnaround on a semi-rural cottage. For example, we removed a garage full of junk and general household waste. Therefore, our team completed the bulky waste collection the same day, bypassing the slow council collection routes.

Hoarder Clearance in Leigh: We managed a sensitive clearance in a dense terraced street. The property contained mixed waste. In addition, our team discreetly cleared the property, met all fly-tipping prevention protocols and also swept the backyard clean.

Downsizing in Orrell: We helped a couple move from a large detached home. Also, we cleared the attic and garden shed, carefully separating items for donation to local charity shops, therefore ensuring a sustainable disposal.
