The short answer
What is builders’ waste removal?
Builders’ waste removal is the collection of rubble, timber, plasterboard, packaging and other debris created during building, renovation and demolition work.
Able Rubbish and Gardening Services collects builders’ waste for homeowners and trades across Basildon, south Essex and east London. We handle trades clearances, strip-outs and demolition waste, and our wait-and-load service means we load as you work — no skip permit, no waste left on the road.

All FAQsIs builders’ waste removal cheaper than a skip?
It often works out better for smaller jobs, tight streets or where you’d need a skip permit, because you only pay for the waste removed and we do the loading. For a long project, regular collections or wait-and-load visits keep the site clear. We’ll give you a free quote so you can compare.
Do you take rubble and soil?
Yes. Rubble, hardcore and soil are heavy, so tell us roughly how many bags or how much loose material there is so we can quote accurately.
Can you take plasterboard?
Yes, but plasterboard has to be kept separate from general waste for disposal. Please mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do you demolish sheds and garages?
We carry out strip-outs and demolition of structures such as sheds and outbuildings, and remove the waste. Describe the structure and send photos, and we’ll confirm what’s involved.
What is a wait-and-load service?
Instead of a skip sitting outside for days, we arrive with the van and wait while the waste is loaded — by us or by your trades — then take it straight away.
