The skip vs us race

Should you hire a skip? Race one against us on your job.

Pick your job and where a skip would sit. Both lanes run through cost, permit, days until it is gone and the hours of lifting you do. Lower is better at every gate. Sometimes the skip wins, and we will say so.

All figures are samples for a demo, including VAT. Skip costs are typical Exeter hire prices for the size shown; a road permit is a sample council fee with a sample 2-day wait. "Days till gone" counts from booking to the waste leaving your property. "Your lifting" is our estimate of the hours you would spend loading.

What we clear

Anything that grew, fell or rotted in your garden.

We load from wherever it sits: back garden, side path or the far end of an allotment. Sample "from" prices include VAT and tip fees.

Hedge & tree cuttings

Bagged or loose, conifer to laurel. We rake up the bits we drop.

from£95

Full garden clear-out

Overgrown beds, old pots, compost bins and the pile behind the shed.

from£225

Shed & greenhouse removal

Taken down and taken away. Glass is boxed before it is lifted.

from£180

Soil, turf & rubble

Priced by weight in bulk bags, because a van of soil weighs far more than a van of leaves.

per bulk bag£70

Garden furniture & BBQs

Rusty sets, broken loungers and cold barbecues. Gas bottles not included (see below).

from£45

Fence panels & decking

Old panels, posts and rotten boards, nails and all.

What changes the price

  • Long carries: more than 30 metres, or through the house, adds £20 (sample). It is on your quote, not added later.
  • Heavy waste: soil, turf and rubble go by weight in bulk bags.
  • Distance: free within 15 miles of Exeter; £1.50 a mile after that (sample).

If the pile is bigger than the photo

We tell you before we load a thing, give you the new price, and you can say no. No call-out charge if you do.

If it is smaller, you pay the smaller price.

Paperwork, done properly

Check us before you book. It protects you too.

Since 2023 English councils can fine householders up to £600 if their waste is dumped by an unregistered carrier. A thirty-second check of the public register stops that.

  1. 1Your waste transfer noteA short record of what we took, from where, how much and where it is going. We email it after every job.
  2. 2Keep it for two yearsThat is how long the duty of care code says notes should be kept for non-hazardous waste. A saved email is fine.
  3. 3Ask anyone who quotesAny registered carrier can give you a number and a note. If someone cannot, do not hand over your waste.

Seen fly-tipping? Report it to your council through gov.uk/report-flytipping. Do not touch bags that could hold sharp or hazardous items.

What we cannot take

Some things need a specialist. Here is who.

We are not licensed for hazardous waste, so we will not take these, even if asked nicely.

Asbestos

Old shed roofs and garage panels can contain it. Do not break it up. Use a licensed asbestos contractor; some council tips accept small, wrapped amounts by arrangement.

Gas bottles

Patio heater and BBQ cylinders go back to the supplier or a stockist of that brand. Many tips take them too.

Garden chemicals

Weedkillers, pesticides and old paint. Keep them in their containers and take them to the council's household waste recycling centre.

Invasive plants

Japanese knotweed and similar need specialist control and disposal. Use an invasive-plant contractor, and do not put it in the green bin.

Where it goes

Most garden waste becomes compost. Not all of it.

Sample shares for 2025–26, by weight. How we measure it: every tip gives us a weight ticket per load; we add up tonnes by destination and divide by total tonnes collected.

Composted (green waste)86%
Recycled (timber, metal, soil)9%
General waste (mixed, treated)5%

Questions

Before you book

Do I need to be home?

No, as long as we can reach the waste and you have agreed the price from your photo. We send before-and-after photos and the waste transfer note by email.

Is it cheaper than my council garden bin?

For a weekly trickle of grass cuttings, the council brown bin is better value. We make sense for one big job the bin would take months to clear.

Can you come the same day?

Often, if you book before 11am and we have a van in your area. We tell you the slot when we confirm the price, and we do not promise times we cannot keep.

Do you need to park on the road?

We load from the road or your drive while we are there, so no skip permit is needed. If parking is tight, tell us and we bring the smaller van.

Send a photo. Get a fixed price.

Usually back within the hour in working hours (sample). Mon to Sat, 7:30am to 6pm.
