About our Exeter service

Anyone based in Exeter knows the area: Exeter is Devon's historic cathedral city and county town, with a large university, the Met Office and a growing population spreading into new suburbs east of the city. Our rubble removal service covers the whole town, including Newtown to Wonford.

We provide rubble removal all over Exeter and the wider Devon area. Big job or small, we give you one clear price before anything is booked in.

Local buildings are largely Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and modern student lets, so each quote takes into account the property, parking and access and when you need it done.

Landlords with properties in Exeter often need rubble cleared quickly between tenancies, before the next occupants move in.

Clay soil is common in parts of Devon, and wet clay is heavy, so bulk bags of spoil from Exeter digs are filled no more than part way.

How much does rubble removal cost in Exeter?

Every job is different. Your price come down to the scope of the work and access, so the quickest way to an exact figure is to send your details. Typical prices are in the facts box at the top of this page and in our cost guide.

Why can I only put rubble in a small skip?

Skip lorries have a maximum lifting weight, so most hire companies only allow heavy waste such as rubble and soil in skips up to around six or eight cubic yards. A large skip filled with rubble would be too heavy to lift. Overloaded skips can be refused or charged extra.

Before you book: a quick Exeter checklist

  • Set aside and mention anything that might contain asbestos, and do not break it up
  • Mention any Japanese knotweed, oil-stained soil or old tarmac in the waste
  • Ask for the collector's waste carrier registration number and check it on the public register
  • Get a fixed price in writing that includes loading, transport and disposal
  • Describe the route from the pile to the road, including steps, gates and narrow points
