How it works
- STEP 1
Send photographs
Snap the soil removal at your Settle 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 one fixed figure covering labour, transport and licensed disposal for the Settle collection. Nothing is added afterwards.
- 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 Settle soil removal is weighed and documented at a licensed facility afterwards.
What affects the price
Soil Removal starts from £140. Your fixed price is confirmed once we have seen photographs.
- 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
- Access — stairs, long carries and restricted parking add labour time
- Timing — weekend, evening and emergency slots carry an uplift
Collecting in Settle
Settle sits in North Yorkshire, within Yorkshire and the Humber. Collections are planned around access, parking and permit restrictions before the vehicle is dispatched.
What we do and do not take
Clean, uncontaminated soil. Contaminated or Japanese knotweed-affected soil requires a specialist licensed contractor.
All waste is collected by registered waste carriers and taken to licensed facilities. Waste transfer documentation is provided where applicable.
Soil Removal FAQs
How much soil can one van take?
Weight limits bite long before volume does. A Settle soil collection is planned by tonnage, and we will send multiple loads rather than overload a vehicle.
Do you take soil with turf in it?
Yes, provided it is otherwise clean. Mixed loads are priced against the heavier fraction.
How much does soil removal cost in Settle?
Soil Removal in Settle starts from £140. 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 Settle 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 Settle vehicle, crew and disposal route correctly, so the price we quote for your soil removal is the price you pay.
What happens to the waste after collection?
It goes to a licensed transfer station where it is separated. Recoverable material from Settle collections is recycled, and only the residual fraction goes to final disposal.
Do I need to be there?
Not always. If the soil removal is accessible from outside at the Settle property, we can collect with photographs, written instructions and payment agreed in advance.

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