What you get

A real answer, then a clear property

We won't promise a time we can't keep. How soon we can come depends on the week's bookings and where you are.

  • Your deadline first

    Tell us the date that matters. If we can't make it, we say so, so you can make other plans.

  • Priced from photos

    A few photos by text or email. No waiting for a visit.

  • No need to be there

    Key, key safe or a neighbour. Handy if you're on the mainland.

  • Anything household

    Furniture, wet carpets, bags, appliances, storm debris, DIY waste.

  • Priced like any other job

    On what's there and how easy it is to get out.

  • Cleared to bare floors

    So the cleaners, buyers or next guests can go straight in.

Council warns it could lead to a fine

Council details checked October 2026. Hire vans need a tip permit only if hired for more than four days. Sources: IoW Council bulky waste; recycling centre bookings; vehicle permits; bins and collections.

What we can't take

  • Asbestos
  • Gas bottles
  • Paint, solvents and chemicals
  • Clinical waste and sharps
  • Sewage-contaminated material

Sewage damage needs a specialist cleaner first. In a rush, don't take the first cheap offer online: see what to ask before you book.

FAQ

Emergency waste removal questions

Short answers. If yours is not here, call or send it with your quote.

Can you come today?

Sometimes, but we won't promise it before we know what's booked. Ring 01983 214838 and we'll tell you on the spot whether we can come today, tomorrow or later in the week.

Is an emergency collection more expensive?

We price on the job itself: how much there is, what it is and how easy it is to get out. You'll know the price before anything is booked.

Do I need to be there?

No. If we can get in with a key, a key safe or a neighbour, and the price is agreed, we can clear the property while you're away.

Should I throw away flood-damaged things before my insurer sees them?

Check with your insurer first. Most want photos and a list, and some want to inspect. Once they're happy, we can clear it.

Can you take the extra bags the council left by my bin?

Yes. The council doesn't collect excess general waste, so a one-off collection is the legal way to clear a backlog.

Why not use the cheapest van I can find?

If a collector dumps your waste, the council can fine you up to £600 for failing in your duty of care. Check any carrier on the Environment Agency register first; we're licensed.
