What to expect in Wells

For most Wells clear-outs a man-with-a-van beats a skip on sheer practicality: no permit for the narrow streets of the old centre, no skip sitting outside a listed cottage for a week, and no loading it yourself. We clear furniture, white goods, garden and general waste from homes right across the city and the villages around it.

Priced by volume like skip hire but with no VAT, from around £150, all loading done by us. Single items from £80. The price is confirmed on arrival and everything is disposed of responsibly through licensed routes.

Everything you need to know

Why a van beats a skip in Wells

Wells's medieval centre and its conservation streets are exactly where a skip is most trouble: a highway permit if it sits on the road, days of it parked outside, and every bag carried out by you. We bring the Luton van to the door, load everything ourselves, and it's gone the same visit. On the villages' single-track lanes the case is even stronger — a skip lorry often can't make the drop at all.

What we clear

Sofas and suites, mattresses and beds, wardrobes and flat-pack, fridges, freezers and washing machines, garden waste, shed and garage contents, and the general clutter that builds up in lofts and spare rooms. Single item or full vanload, it all goes. The one thing we can't take is paint tins and similar hazardous waste — ask before booking if you're unsure about something specific.

How the volume pricing works

Clearance is priced by how much of the van you fill — like skip sizes, but with no VAT and all the loading included, typically from around £150 upward. Single bulky items are priced individually: single bed £80, armchair £84, sofa £95, fridge or double bed £120. You get a clear figure on arrival before we lift anything, and once you're happy we crack on.

House, garage and loft clear-outs

Bigger clear-outs — a garage that hasn't been opened in years, a loft full of a family's history, a rental between tenants — are steady work across Wells. We work room by room, set aside anything you want kept or donated, and leave the space swept and usable. For landlords and agents we'll provide a waste transfer note for the file.

Licensed, responsible disposal

We're a registered upper-tier waste carrier (licence CBDU445737) — you can check it on the Environment Agency's public register. Everything goes through licensed transfer and recycling routes, we re-use and donate what we sensibly can, and we never fly-tip. That's better for the Mendips and it's your legal duty of care covered too.

NNailsea Verified Checkatrade review
I asked Eddie to remove a mattress and he was very polite, dealt with my enquiry quickly, and got the job done the same day. Can't fault the service or the price.
