Rubbish Clearance
General household waste, DIY leftovers and bulky rubbish collected and removed through authorised, licensed waste routes — across Jedburgh and the Borders.

A simple, licensed alternative to hiring a skip
Not every job needs a full clearance — sometimes it's just general household rubbish, garden waste, or the leftovers from a DIY project or house clearout that need collecting and taking away. Our rubbish clearance service covers exactly this, and is often quicker and more flexible than arranging a skip, particularly where there's no space to put one or a permit would be needed for the road.
As a registered waste carrier, everything we collect is taken through authorised, licensed disposal routes — something that isn't guaranteed with informal "man with a van" services. Where materials can be recycled, they are; general waste that can't be is disposed of properly, with none of it ending up fly-tipped or dumped illegally.
This service works well on its own or alongside another job — many customers combine it with a garage, shed or loft clearance in the same visit.
What we collect
How it works
Tell us roughly how much needs collecting — a few bags, a car-boot load, or a van load — and we'll give you a free quote, usually the same day. We collect from wherever's easiest, whether that's inside the property, in a garden, or already bagged up ready to go.
Once collected, materials are separated for recycling wherever possible, and everything else is taken through licensed waste disposal facilities. We can provide a waste transfer note on request, useful if you need proof of responsible disposal.
Most rubbish clearance collections are completed within 30 minutes to an hour, depending on volume and access.
Rubbish clearance — common questions
Is this cheaper than hiring a skip?
It depends on volume, but you avoid permit costs and pay only for what's collected. Ask us for a comparison quote.
Can you provide a waste transfer note?
Yes — just ask when booking or after collection.
Do you take builders' waste?
Yes, most general DIY and renovation waste — ask us about anything unusual before booking.
How quickly can you collect?
Often the same day or next — call to check current availability.
