Removing waste from site is a key part of site preparation and ensures your site works smoothly and efficiently. Muck Away Services refers to the removal of large quantities of waste from construction or excavation sites.

We collect your waste with either one of our fleet of tipper lorries, which you load on site using your own equipment or a grab lorry that self loads with the use of a hydraulic arm and grab bucket. We then transport the waste to our licensed recycling facility in Poole. We have both 8 wheeler and 6 wheeler lorries, suitable for different size loads and access restrictions.

If you have a large amount of waste that would require several loads, you can book us on turnaround so that we to and fro from your site until all of your waste has been cleared.

If you are looking to have material delivered and muck taken away we can do that too! Give our friendly sales team a call on 01929 439 444 and they will be able to book this in for you.

Muck Away Services are ideal for:

  • Construction sites
  • Landscaping projects
  • General site clearance

What waste do we accept?

  • General inert waste (clay, soils, sands, gravel)
  • Hardcore
  • Demolition waste
  • Concrete & tarmac (which we recycle)

What do we do with your waste?

Most of the waste collected goes to our licensed recycling premises in Poole, Here, the waste that can be recycled is processed to create recycled material such as our recycled type 1, which we then sell from our Mannings Heath Road Depot. Inert materials such as clays, sands and soils are used in the restoration of our Swanworth Quarry in the Isle of Purbeck, to fill in the quarry, before it is seeded and restored back to grassland.

Why would I use Muck Away Services instead of hiring a skip?

Muck Away Services are a great alternative to a skip, if you have a larger amount of material to dispose of or you want to simply dispose of it faster with less complications then this is the best option for you. But just in case we haven’t convinced you here are some helpful points…

Larger Quantities of Waste: Grab lorries can handle huge volumes of waste, often much more than a single skip. Perfect for construction or landscaping jobs generating lots of soil, rubble, or hardcore.

Faster Waste Removal: The lorry shows up, grabs the waste, and it’s gone in under 30 minutes.

    No Need for finding a space: If you place a skip on a public road, you need to find a suitable space close to the property. Grab lorries don’t need that; they park, load, and leave.

    Access to Tight or Awkward Sites: Grab lorries have hydraulic arms that can reach over fences, walls, or into back gardens; handy if you don’t have room for a skip or easy access.

    Ideal for Soil & Inert Waste: If you’re shifting clean inert materials like soil or clay from a dig, muck away services are often the most efficient and cost-effective solution.

    You Don’t Have to Load It Yourself: With grab services, the operator does the heavy lifting using the crane; saving you labour and time.

      Other important bits!

      If you have any overhead cables, this could mean that we can not retrieve the material with a grab lorry. Please let us know when booking in.

      So if Muck Away and Grab Services sound like the best option for you, give us a call on 01929 439 444 today to book in!
