Rubbish removals and waste disposal services – Rated People
Few of us have a spare van, truck or light goods vehicle tucked up on our driveways. So, if you’re looking to shift an old sofa or a forlorn mattress you’ve got two options. One sees you hiring a van (and all the hassle that involves), and lugging the bulky unwanted item yourself. And then wondering why you wasted so much time.
The other is probably quicker and certainly easier – call up a waste removal or disposal professional. With all the required tools, vehicles and expertise, they’ll be able to collect your unwanted white goods, discarded furniture items and general household waste, leaving you with a clean, serene home.
Your waste removal expert should be able to clear most items from your home. They may even be able to dispose of hazardous waste, provided they hold the necessary licenses. Book in a collection, and as long as you’ve accurately informed them about the type of waste you need rid of, they’ll be able to collect everything up, drive it away, and ensure it’s taken to the correct recycling or landfill disposal site.
Cost of waste removal
The cost of this service will depend on the amount (and weight) of waste you need to have removed, and whether any special processes or licenses are required.
You can usually expect to pay the follow rates, according to waste weights:
- Up to 250 kg: £75–£125
- Up to 500 kg: £150–£185
- Up to 1,000 kg: £300–£350
Waste removal what can be collected?
Waste removal firms will have the experience and knowledge to advise you regarding what they can and cannot take away for you. They’ll usually be able to assist – but some items may require specialist disposal (and licenses), so it’s best to check with your waste removal professional before they arrive.
Waste removal companies can ordinarily collect:
- Furniture – sofas, mattresses, cupboards, tables, chairs and unwanted office or garden furniture.
- Other home waste – DVDs, books, boxes, old clothes, smaller furniture items (for example, lamps).
- Garden waste – branches, leaves, shrubs, grass, soil, even remnants of an old garden shed or fencing.
- White goods and appliances: dishwashers, washing machines, TVs, speakers, printers, cookers, fridges, freezers.
- General building waste: timber, bricks and blocks, plasterboard, window frames, glass, carpet and bags of sand, cement and plaster.
Waste removal hazardous items and licensed waste
Waste removal firms will be able to remove most household rubbish – even items you wouldn’t usually be able to put in the bin or recycle, like plasterboard. As we’ve mentioned, there are some items that require specialist handling and licenses to dispose of though.
This is usually because they are hazardous to humans or the environment, and cannot be recycled or safely put into landfill. If you have any of the following items, it’s worth speaking to your waste removal professional before they turn up at your house – to avoid frustration on both sides, and an unexpected charge.
- Industrial or large appliances
- Paint, toxic chemicals or solvents
- Asbestos
- Medical waste
- Fuel, oil, petrol and diesel
- Gas cannisters and bottles
- Car batteries
Other waste removal FAQ's
What qualifications does my tradesperson need?
Waste removal doesn’t require any formal qualifications but, as we’ve outlined, your professional may need licenses to dispose of certain items. Your local authority should be able to advise if you’re unsure as to whether some types of waste require licenses to handle.
What insurance does my tradesperson need?
Carrying bulky items out of your home can be a risky business. Trips, drops, dents – all these accidents are easily done. Make sure your waste removal professional holds public liability insurance, which will protect both them and your property in the case of any mishaps.
What should I ask a waste clearance specialist before hiring them?
Before booking a rubbish clearance service, you should ask for a clear breakdown of how they charge, whether by the hour or by the overall weight and volume of the items, and confirm if they can legally carry away all of your waste. It is essential to check if any of your junk requires specialised disposal licenses and to ask directly if there will be any additional handling fees or specific items they refuse to remove. Clarifying these logistics upfront guarantees transparent pricing and ensures your property is left completely clear and compliant on the day.

I wanted a Church Font removing from my garden and this company performed the task with ease. Both of them disposed of the font and cleared the area with no trouble at all. Cannot praise their work ethic enough, polite, pleasant and courteous. Although the font was large they managed to break it up and take away all the remains. Would heartily recommend and they seem to cater for all jobs concerning the garden. Well done lads and thank you.
