A little planning makes rubbish removal quicker, safer and easier to price. Use this guide to prepare, then ask the collection team about anything unusual.
Choose rubbish removal for convenience
A collection team loads the waste for you, so this often suits furniture, house clearances and mixed bulky items. It also avoids leaving a skip outside while you fill it.
Choose a skip for an ongoing project
A skip may suit a renovation that creates waste over several days. You will normally need to load it yourself and may need permission if it sits on a public road.
Think about the waste type
Neither option accepts every material. Asbestos, chemicals, gas bottles and other hazardous waste need specialist handling. Always describe unusual items before booking.
