Garage clearance cost

We've got 15-plus years of accumulated junk in the garage that needs to go. How much does a clearance company typically charge, and does it include disposal?

"It depends on the company / soletrader, location, type and amount of waste that needs disposing. You need to shop around, found out what vehicles the professional has, its capacity mainly. It would roughly vary between £350-£450 per big van load."

"Hi there! I can't speak for everyone but my company charges an hourly rate, £39 p/h for one person, £69 p/h for me plus another.

Also, anyone who disposes of items properly and responsibly will be a Registered Waste Carrier, and they will incur charges at the tip, so that will have to be factored into costings.

I hope you found this helpful!

Kind Regards
