Rubbish removal: what the job involves

Having a load of rubbish taken away and disposed of lawfully — bulky furniture, garden waste, DIY rubble, a shed’s contents — by a permitted collector who loads it for you. The one question that matters is the waste collection permit number.

How long it takes: Usually an hour or two on site for a van load; heavy rubble, stairs or a long carry make it longer.

The full guide to rubbish removal — the steps, what is included, the Irish rules, paperwork and questions to ask.
