Rubbish Clearance Edinburgh Tenants Book Without Worry

Apollo rubbish removal truck

Apollo offers waste collection Edinburgh customers can book in a minute, with a crew that loads everything and a record of where it went. From loft and shed clearouts to commercial units and building sites, we collect almost any non-hazardous waste in Edinburgh. You get a written fixed price up front, licensed disposal with around 95% recycled or recovered, and a waste transfer note for every collection. Prices start from £65 for a Mini Load.

Clearing a property in Edinburgh is rarely just a question of how much rubbish there is. Maisonettes with narrow stairs, garages at the end of a lane and units on industrial estates are all part of a normal week for us. We collect in Edinburgh week in, week out, so a quick photo and an address are usually all we need to give you a price and slot we can keep.

What we clear

A Fixed Price for Every Edinburgh
Home, Garage and Workshop

No hourly rates and no second trips: one team, one price. Labour, loading, the drive to the transfer station and licensed waste disposal Edinburgh wide are all included in the price. Pick the collection that matches your job and we will confirm the load size and price before anything goes in the van.

Skip or man and van for Edinburgh homes: compared

Skip Hire Edinburgh or a Van and Crew: Which Service Fits Your Property?

Skip hire van compared with man and van rubbish collection

A skip is the default choice for many in Edinburgh, but it is not always the right one. You get a skip that sits outside for days, a possible council permit to arrange, and all the filling to do yourself. Our man and van collections are simpler. We turn up in an agreed slot, load it all, sweep up and leave, charging only for the space your rubbish fills.

For one sofa, a loft clearout, a garden tidy or a few bags of rubble, a collection is usually quicker and often cheaper once permit and hire costs are added up. If you are a builder or fitter, our construction waste disposal Edinburgh service removes rubble and strip out waste between visits, with no skip to manage. A skip can still make sense for a long project producing waste over weeks, and if that is you, we will tell you honestly.

How it works

Four Simple Steps To A Clear Space In Edinburgh

Four simple steps to a clutter-free space.

Apollo branded collection truck
1

Tell Us What You Have

Share a photo on WhatsApp, use the online form or call 800-999-1234. Seeing the items and the access at your Edinburgh address means a quick, accurate quote, usually within minutes.

2

Agree Your Fixed Price

We quote by van space, not by the hour. Your Edinburgh price is confirmed in writing before work starts and holds on the day unless you decide to add items.

3

We Clear It

We arrive in the agreed window, same day or a week ahead, with a uniformed team of two. Every item in your Edinburgh home or site is carried out for you, and we sweep the space before leaving.

4

We Recycle and Send Your Paperwork

Each load is sorted at a licensed transfer station, with around 95% recycled or recovered. Edinburgh customers receive a waste transfer note every time, and nothing is ever fly tipped.

Why Apollo

Why Offices in Edinburgh Rely On Apollo for Clearances

There is more to rubbish removal than a van and some muscle. Here is what sets an Apollo collection in Edinburgh apart. It all starts with a quick photo from Edinburgh.

Licence on Record for Edinburgh Builders and Fitters

Apollo is registered with the Environment Agency as an upper tier waste carrier. The public register lists us, so you can check before booking. Send a photo and our Edinburgh team will take it from there.

Prices Fixed First for Edinburgh Estates

No surprises, no hourly charges, no weight fees. What you approve before loading is what you pay. That is the standard for every job in Edinburgh.

Local Crews for Edinburgh Customers

We are in Edinburgh week in, week out. Parking, access and timing are planned before we set off. A photo is usually all we need from Edinburgh.

Around 95% Recovered for Edinburgh Home Movers

Every collection is sorted at a licensed transfer station. Usable items are reused and the rest is separated by material. We are glad to help anywhere in Edinburgh.

Done by Our Team for Edinburgh Cottages

Tell us what is going and leave it to us. Our crew of two handles all the carrying and loading. It is part of every booking we take in Edinburgh.

Weekday and Saturday for Edinburgh Garages

Across Edinburgh, same day slots are available when we have space. We fix the price before we start. It is how we work across Edinburgh.

Fly tipping is a well known problem across Scotland, and councils do prosecute. The part many people do not realise is that if waste from your home turns up dumped in a lane and it can be traced back to you, you can still be held liable and penalised even though somebody else dumped it. That is the risk of cheap rubbish removal Edinburgh residents book without checking the licence. Apollo gives you a waste transfer note on every collection, so your side of the duty of care is met and documented, and it is waste disposal Edinburgh residents can prove was done properly.

Gone the same day, fair price

Called them at 9am with a pile of old furniture in the drive. By 2pm the van was there, they loaded up everything and swept the area clean. Price matched the quote exactly. Really impressed.

Real review

Clear, honest and quick

I got three quotes, Apollo was the only one who sent the price in writing before the job. Two of us did the heavy lifting up three flights of stairs, no fuss. Waste transfer note came through the same evening.
MKMohammed K. · January 2026

Real review

Responsible disposal

Used them for a garage clearout after a move. They sorted the reusable stuff for donation and took everything else to a licensed tip. The paperwork gave me peace of mind. Would use again.

Our rubbish removal Edinburgh prices start at £65 for a Mini Load, roughly eight black bags or one large item.

That is why so many Edinburgh customers book again.
