How it works
- STEP 1
Send photographs
Snap the household waste removal at your Kelso address and send it on WhatsApp. Photographs are the single biggest factor in quote accuracy — the more you send, the tighter the fixed price.
- STEP 2
Receive a fixed price
We assess volume, weight and access, then confirm a written figure covering the agreed labour, transport and disposal requirements for your collection in Kelso. Any change in scope is discussed before work continues.
- STEP 3
Choose your slot
Same-day, next-day, weekend and evening windows are offered subject to vehicle availability. You get a confirmed window rather than an all-day wait.
- STEP 4
We load and clear
The crew arrives with the correct vehicle, loads everything by hand, and sweeps up. The collected household waste removal from Kelso is weighed and documented at a licensed facility afterwards.
What affects the price
Household Waste Removal starts from £95. Your fixed price is confirmed once we have seen photographs.
- Access — stairs, long carries and restricted parking add labour time
- Timing — weekend, evening and emergency slots carry an uplift
- Location — travel beyond the included mileage is charged at the vehicle rate
- Volume — how much of the van the load actually fills
- Weight — dense material such as rubble, soil and concrete costs more at the gate
- Waste type — recycling routes are cheaper than general disposal

Household Waste Removal FAQs
Do I need to bag everything first?
No. We collect loose waste as standard in Kelso — our team bags and loads it for you. Bagging keeps the price down, but it is never a requirement.
How quickly can you collect?
Same-day and next-day slots are usually available in Kelso. Send photographs on WhatsApp and we confirm a fixed price and a collection window.
Are you a licensed waste carrier?
Yes. Every Kelso collection is carried out by a registered waste carrier and taken to a licensed facility. Waste transfer documentation is issued where duty of care applies.
Can you collect the same day in Kelso?
Often, yes. Same-day household waste removal in Kelso depends on vehicle availability at the time you call. If we cannot reach you today we will say so rather than take the booking and let you down.
How much does household waste removal cost in Kelso?
Household Waste Removal in Kelso starts from £95. The final figure depends on volume, weight and access. Send photographs on WhatsApp and we confirm a fixed price rather than an hourly guess.
Can you handle difficult access?
Yes. Stairs, lifts, long carries, narrow lanes and permit bays are all workable at Kelso properties — we just need to know in advance so the right crew and vehicle are sent.
Why do you ask for photographs?
Because guessing is how customers get stung. Photographs let us size the Kelso vehicle, crew and disposal route correctly, so the price we quote for your household waste removal is the price you pay.
Which Kelso postcodes do you cover for household waste removal?
Yes. Our household waste removal covers the whole of Kelso, including the TD5 postcode district around the town centre and the surrounding area. We also collect from neighbouring Jedburgh (9.6 miles), Melrose (11 miles) and Galashiels (15 miles) — distances are straight-line from Kelso. Send your postcode with photos on WhatsApp and we will confirm the fixed price before booking.

Moving as well as clearing in Kelso?
Clearances often sit either side of a move. If you need the furniture that is staying taken to a new address in Kelso, that is a removals job rather than a waste job — and it is priced separately.
