Excellent!

I sent a photo of what I wanted removed and Andy got back to me with a price immediately.

He arrived exactly when he said he would and swept up before he left. I also like the fact he managed to recycle and old gate we got rid of.

I'd definitely use again!

Thank you for your kind words. The gate was repainted (with recycled paint) and repaired before being given away free to someone who needed it.

Many thanks for your kind words. Most of the items that were picked up have been given away for new people to enjoy. We try wherever possible to reduce the amount of stuff going to landfill.

Fabulous Service

Fabulous service. Called on Friday, arranged visit for Monday and arrived on the agreed time of 10am on the dot.
Good to know the things that we no longer have use for are being sorted, so where they can be they are reused and where they can’t be they are selected for recycling.
We have lots of books to sort and Obsidian will take these as well so will be arranging a further visit.

I’ve been using Andy for a while now for my business waste and I couldn’t be happier with the service. Andy always arrives when he says he will, is very polite and is always competitively priced. I wouldn’t use anyone else now and I’m extremely happy I’ve found someone I can use on a regular basis.

Great service from Andy who removed all sorts from our care home, from stuff intended for the tip to items able to be reused. Super to know that some furniture will become someone else's treasure. Andy charged a good price for his time and expertise.
