Great, efficient service. A litle more expensive than the local Council but definitely good value for money. Guys were friendly too. Fantastic service.

We had a house clearance today by The Rubbish removers. They arrived before time (for me that's an excellent start) and the 2 gentlemen introduced themselves firstly and then proceeded to survey the job. After a walk through of what needed doing they started straight away. The job seemed to be completed in no time. The 2 gentlemen, called Darren & Scott? (sorry if I've got the names wrong?) Were Fantastic. Polite, well organised and hard working. A credit to The Rubbish removers company. I would use the company again and would have the same workers if possible. Really impressed!

Our trained bereavement professionals deliver a compassionate service, treating every home with the utmost respect.
We clear everything from lofts and cellars to overgrown gardens, handling all the heavy lifting on your behalf.

Our Process

Give us a call, complete our contact form or you can also WhatsApp a photo of the property to 07802 860 731 for a free quote. After reviewing the details, we will provide clear and also transparent pricing.
2. The Clear
Our uniformed team arrives as arranged and clears the property systematically, room by room. Throughout the process, we take great care to protect your walls, floors as well as fixtures.
3. The Clean
Once everything has been removed, we then sweep the property thoroughly, leaving it vacant and broom clean, ready for sale or letting without delay.
4. Ethics
We maintain a high landfill diversion rate. We separate suitable items for donation to local charities and responsibly recycle the remainder at licensed facilities.
Typical Load Sizes & Pricing Guide
Our transparent pricing ensures you only pay for the space you fill, unlike a skip where you pay for fresh air.
- Single Item: Prices start from £80 + VAT. This option is ideal for a standalone bulky item such as a heavy wardrobe or mattress.
- Quarter Van Load: Approximately 2 to 3 cubic yards. It is perfect for clearing out a box room or small outbuilding efficiently.
- Half Van Load: Roughly 6 cubic yards, comparable to a standard builders’ skip. It is well suited to a large master bedroom clear-out or medium sized decluttering project.
- Full Van Load: Between 12 and 14 cubic yards. This capacity is suitable for full house clearances or extensive garden tidy-ups.
