Who we help
When getting it outside is the hard part
By the council's own figures, no part of the Island has more residents whose health or a disability limits daily life a lot than Sandown North.
If you can't lift it
No dragging anything to the kerb by 7am. Point at it and we carry it.
Arranging it for a relative
A family member, carer or trusted neighbour can send the photos and deal with us.
Top-floor seafront flats
Tall Victorian and Edwardian blocks, divided into flats with shared stairs.
Guest houses
Replacing tired furniture before seafront parking tightens in summer.

Stairs count for more than size
A wardrobe at the top of a shared staircase takes longer than a ground-floor garage full of boxes. So we ask first.

FAQ
Sandown and Lake questions
Short answers. If yours is not here, call or send it with your quote.
Can you carry things down from a top-floor flat?
Yes, it's a big part of our Sandown work. Tell us the floor, whether there's a lift and how the stairs turn, and we'll price it accurately.
My relative can't lift anything. Do they need to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and confirm what's going. That can be a family member, a carer or a trusted neighbour.
Can't the council's assisted collection take it?
That service is for your normal bins, for residents who can't move them and have no other adult at home who can. It doesn't cover a spare bed.
I run a guest house. Is that different?
Yes. Waste from a business goes by a different route from household rubbish. Mention it with your quote and we'll explain the paperwork.
Do you cover Lake?
Yes. Lake is part of the same run as Sandown and Shanklin.
