Frequently asked questions

Great question, because this really matters! Once we arrange collection of your waste, it’s taken straight to one of our trusted, licensed processing partners where it’s broken down properly. That means everything that can be recycled is - no shortcuts.

We only work with Ireland’s most advanced and reliable facilities to ensure every ounce of waste possible is given a second lease of life. That includes not just wood and paper, but electronics, metals, rubble, textiles, cabling, and much more.

So, up to 96% of the junk we collect is recycled, dramatically cutting landfill waste and boosting sustainability.

You might find cheaper rubbish removal services in Ireland, but be cautious with ultra-low-cost providers. That bargain today could lead to illegal dumping in a local field or roadside tomorrow.

For peace of mind and to do your part for the planet, work with our professional team to arrange your junk and waste collection.

We serve customers across The Republic of Ireland (we unfortunately do not operate within Northern Ireland).  

If you’ve never used a rubbish removal service before, don’t worry, it’s simple.

Instead of hiring a skip and doing all the heavy lifting yourself, we come to you, load everything up onto a small truck, and take it away. You don’t lift a thing.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Decide how much space you need - use our size guide to help.
    👉 Not sure? Book on the safe side - you’ll only pay for what you actually use.
  2. Choose a date and time that works for you.
  3. Book online and pay to secure your slot.
  4. We show up on the day, load everything, and sweep up after ourselves.
  5. If you’ve booked more space than you needed in the end, we’ll refund the difference.

  6. Sit back, relax and enjoy your space again.

Still not sure if a skip or collection is better for you? Drop us a line and we’d be happy to advise.

Our team always take care to sort and fit your waste as neatly as possible into our vans or trucks in order to maximise space. Its important to note however that we do not break down items such as furniture, cardboard or other materials to make them smaller. Items will be loaded onto the trucks in the form and size they are already in when the team arrives. We advise all customers to break down items into smaller pieces where possible in order to make the best use of the space on the truck.

Good question! and one of the things we get asked the most. 

Think of rubbish removal as the quicker, easier cousin of skip hire.

With a skip, you need space outside your home or business, (you might need a council permit if it’s going in a paid parking area or path), and then you’ve got to do all the lifting and loading yourself. For a lot of people, that’s more hassle than it’s worth and others just can't manage it for various reasons.

Rubbish removal gets rid of all those problems. Our team arrives, does the heavy lifting, and takes everything away in one go. There’s no waiting around for a skip to be dropped off and collected, no worrying about permits, and no pile of junk sitting outside your property for days.

It’s also more flexible. You don’t have to guess what size skip you’ll need or pay for half-empty space. With rubbish removal, you only pay for the volume of waste we take away, whether that’s a single bulky item or a full house clearance.

In short, rubbish removal is about speed, convenience and less hassle, while skip hire is better suited to longer projects where you’ll be filling it bit by bit over time.

We operate 6 days a week Monday - Saturday for both junk removal and skip services (dropping and collecting).

Our rubbish removal service is the ideal solution for all those moments when your clutter builds up and you just want it gone without the hassle of a skip. Also when the wheelie bin just isn't enough!

It’s the go-to option for full house clear-outs, business premise clearances, garage and attic cleanings, garden overhauls, or even just those “one big item” jobs like an old sofa, mattress or fridge that you can’t shift yourself.

We also call to a lot of customers after they've finished up DIY projects or renovations. Plasterboard, wood offcuts, old fittings and packaging can pile up fast, and rubbish removal services like ours gets it cleared fast.

For our business customers, it’s equally effective. Offices use rubbish removal to get rid of things like old desks, chairs and IT equipment (yes, we take electrical items), while shops and cafes often need packaging, displays or stock waste taken away quickly to keep the space safe and clean.

In short, rubbish removal is suited to almost any need where bulky, awkward or extra waste is in the way. Whether it’s a single item, a seasonal clear-up or a full property clear out, we save you time, effort and stress doing the lifting and disposal for you.

Yes! Our rubbish removal service can take single items or small loads in many areas, making it ideal if you don’t need a full skip.

Popular bookings include bulky items like washing machines, fridges, wardrobes, sofas, and other pieces of furniture that are awkward to move yourself. 

You can choose a single item on our booking page to get started.

We can collect almost anything, from household clutter to garden waste, as long as it’s not on our exclusion list (such as hazardous items, asbestos etc...). If you’re unsure whether we can take it, just ask - chances are, we can remove it for you quickly and safely and if its not something we can take in a rubbish removal we can point you in the right direction of a specialist provider who can help. 

Yes, absolutely! Garden waste is one of the most common things we’re called out for. If you’ve been trimming hedges, cutting back trees, cutting the grass or just giving the garden a long-overdue tidy, all that green waste can pile up quickly. We’ll take away branches, leaves, grass cuttings, old fencing, garden furniture, plant pots and pretty much any other rubbish that’s cluttering up your outdoor space.

It’s not just about tidy gardens either. After a storm or a landscaping project, you might be left with piles of debris that won’t fit in a green bin or would take weeks of collections to clear. That’s where booking a rubbish removal is perfect! we load it all up in one go and make sure it’s taken to licensed facilities where it’s recycled or composted wherever possible.

So whether it’s a small clear-up after a bit of pruning or a big garden overhaul, we’ve got you covered. You enjoy the fresh space, we’ll handle the mess.
