Fixed bands, quoted before we start. What moves the price is access, stair turns, parking distance and the size of the job — not the postcode you live in.
| Package | What it covers | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Part load — bagged rubble | Up to around 15 tonne bags, hand-loaded from the property. | from £150 |
| Mixed renovation load | Timber, packaging, carcasses and general strip-out waste. | from £220 |
| Bathroom or kitchen rip-out | Suite or units, tiles, plaster and the packaging from the new fit. | from £280 |
