The short answer
What is waste removal?
Waste removal is a collection service where a team comes to your property, loads your unwanted items and rubbish into a vehicle and takes it away for disposal. You don’t need to move anything to the kerb first.
Able Rubbish and Gardening Services removes household, bulky and commercial waste across Basildon and the surrounding towns. Tell us what needs to go, get a free quote, and we’ll arrange a time that suits you — 7 days a week, from 6am to 11pm.
What’s included
What does our waste removal service include?
Every job is quoted for free first. Here’s what we regularly handle.
Household rubbish
Bagged rubbish, clutter, boxes, old toys, bedding and the general build-up that bin collections won’t take.
Bulky items
Sofas, mattresses, beds, wardrobes, tables, carpets and other furniture that won’t fit in a car.
Appliances
Washing machines, cookers, fridges and freezers. Some appliances need specialist handling, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Garage and shed clear-outs
Years of stored items, old tools, paint tins, bikes and broken garden furniture.
Shop and office waste
Old office furniture, shop fittings, stock packaging and one-off commercial clear-outs.
Wait and load
We arrive while you or your trades are working and load as you go, so waste never piles up on site.

FAQ
Waste Removal questions
Can’t see your question? Call 07407 415289 — we’re available 7 days a week, 6am to 11pm.
All FAQsHow much does waste removal cost?
The price depends on how much there is, what type of waste it is and how easy it is to reach. A single bulky item costs far less than a full van load, and items such as fridges, mattresses or plasterboard can cost more to dispose of. Call 07407 415289 or send photos for a free quote before any work starts.
Do I need to bring everything outside first?
No. We carry items out from inside the property, the garden, the garage or the loft. If you can point us to what’s going, we’ll do the lifting.
Can you collect today?
Often, yes. Same-day and next-day collections depend on where you are and what’s already booked, so call 07407 415289 and we’ll tell you the earliest slot.
What can’t you take?
Tell us about anything hazardous — such as asbestos, chemicals, gas bottles or clinical waste — when you request a quote. Some materials need specialist disposal and we’ll be upfront about what we can and can’t remove.
Do you remove commercial waste?
Yes. We carry out one-off clearances for shops, offices and trades, including office furniture, shop fittings and packaging waste.
