Our man-and-van clearance service loads the waste, sweeps up after itself, gives you a registered carrier certificate and is usually finished within 90 minutes. We cover garden waste (cuttings, branches, turf, soil), shed and garage clearances, full house and end-of-tenancy clearances, builder's waste, single-item bulky disposals (mattresses, sofas, fridges) and full garden strip-outs. The legal bit matters: fly-tipping fines for unlicensed disposal start at £400 and can rise to £50,000 with a criminal record — and if the waste is traced back to you, you're liable even if you paid someone else to take it. We're SEPA-registered and you get the paperwork with every job. Why It Matters ## The Cost of Getting Rid Wrong Cheap cash-in-hand clearance is one of the biggest risks to Ayrshire homeowners. Here's what we see go wrong. ### Unlicensed dumping = your liability If a 'man with a van' fly-tips your waste, the council traces the contents back to you. £400 fixed-penalty minimum, up to £50,000 and a criminal record. ### Skip hire creep An 8-yard skip is £280-£350 delivered, plus £80-£150 permit, plus your driveway out of action for 5 days. We're usually cheaper and gone same day. ### Lingering pest & smell issues Garden cuttings left in a pile attract rats and slugs. Old shed contents (especially anything food-related) draw in vermin within weeks. ### Hazardous items in general waste Fridges, paint, batteries and asbestos sheets all need specific disposal routes. Putting them in a skip or kerbside is illegal — we handle the right routing.

The price quoted is the price paid. ### Registered waste carrier SEPA-registered with paperwork for every job — you're never liable. ### We do the lifting You point, we carry.

Landfill is the last option, not the first. ### No skip permit hassle No road permit, no driveway block, no neighbours filling it overnight. In Detail ## What We Clear (And What We Can't) Most clearance jobs are straightforward, but a few categories need separate handling. Here's the full picture. ### Garden waste clearances Grass clippings, hedge trimmings, branches, leaves, old turf, soil and rubble. Volume-based pricing — typical small garden clearance £80-£140, full overgrown garden strip-out £250-£500. ### Shed, garage & loft clearances Full contents cleared — old tools, paint, garden machinery, broken furniture, boxes of who-knows-what. We sort on the van so anything recyclable goes the right way. ### House & end-of-tenancy clearances Single rooms to full property clearances, including white goods, soft furnishings, soft toys, kitchenware and electricals. Photo quote service for landlords and letting agents. ### Single-item bulky disposal Sofas (£40-£60), mattresses (£30 each), fridges and freezers (£40-£55, includes degassing routing), washing machines, dishwashers. Cheaper and faster than the council bulky uplift waiting list. ### Builder's & DIY waste Plasterboard, ceramics, off-cuts, packaging. Plasterboard is segregated separately (it's banned from landfill under WEEE rules) and routed to a licensed gypsum recycler. ### What we won't take Asbestos (needs licensed asbestos removal — we'll recommend a specialist), live or unstable chemicals, clinical waste, and tyres (these need a separate tyre-disposal route). We'll always be upfront if your job needs a specialist. ### Residential vs commercial Commercial clients (shops, offices, holiday lets, letting agents) get monthly account billing, dated photo reports and priority slots. We service property managers across Ayrshire on rolling agreements.
