Skoup’s van removal service is a fast, cost-effective and hassle-free way to dispose of unwanted items and is often a cheaper alternative to a skip. But how much stuff can you actually fit into a van?
Many of us when undertaking, what seems like a big clearance project, will opt for a skip because they have certain benefits, such as:
- They can be hired for extended periods
- They can be filled with heavier materials like rubble
Book you man with a van waste removal service today!
However, if you’re looking to clear out your loft, garage, garden or even having your kitchen refitted a van might be a cheaper and more efficient alternative to a skip. Here’s why:
- A van can remove most types of waste including furniture, mattresses, wooden cabinets, fixtures and fittings, bric-a-brac, garden waste, water-based paint cans and electrical waste. View our full list of accepted items.
- Our helpful drivers will load everything onto the van for you so there’s no need for heavy lifting. Due to COVID-19, we ask customers to leave items in an accessible area outside of their premises as we will not be entering homes/businesses during this time. We are also unable to guarantee a two-man crew therefor removal of some larger items may be restricted.
- Unwanted items can be collected and removed on the same day.
- Our quarter van service can be completed in as little as 15 minutes!
- Van prices start from just £75 and our full van collection could save you on average £89 compared to a 12-yard skip.
If you think a van collection service is the best option for you, book your slot online. If you need a little more information on what size van is right for your clear out, keep reading.
We’ve created a few common household and business scenarios to show you the right size collection and avoid any disappointment on the day.
Quarter Van:
A quarter van collection is suitable for a whole host of smaller items or a few larger unwanted items. For example:
|
Sorting out the loft/ garage: |
Tidying the garden: |
Clearing out your workspace: |
Half van:
A half van collection offers that extra space for those items you didn’t know you had. Once you start clearing out unwanted items, things quickly start piling up and you may need a little more van room if you’re looking to clear out multiple rooms. For example:
| Sorting out the loft/garage: - 5 large packing boxes of bric-a-brac. - Scabby sofa – 2 seater - 6ft artificial Christmas tree (dismantled) - Double bed frame and mattress* - Old TV* - A dismantled closet/wardrobe *for an additional charge |
Tidying the garden: |
Clearing out your workspace: |
Full Van:
A full van collection offers the equivalent space of a 12-yard skip, perfect for the quick removal of old kitchen units or shop décor before a refit. Best of all items not suitable for a skip such as a cooker or a fridge can be taken away in a van. For example:
| Remodeling a kitchen: - 5-6 kitchen wall cabinets - 4-5 under counter cabinets - Double Fridge freezer* - Free standing cooker* - Unwanted appliances - 10 sacks of off-cuts and general rubbish - Kitchen work-top *additional charge |
Moderate garden landscaping: - Large garden shed (dismantled) - Double BBQ or patio heater (excluding gas canisters) - 15-20 garden waste sacks (excluding soil) - Broken bird house - Electric lawnmower - 7ft real Christmas tree - Child’s swing set - Dismantled trampoline - 4 garden chairs and a garden table |
Office or shop renovation: - Four reception chairs - Six person meeting table - Six office chairs - Three desks - Three boxes of miscellaneous computer equipment - Under counter fridge* - 8 pedestal drawers - 10 archive boxes of documents *additional charges |
If at any point during the collection your items have filled the space booked, our helpful team will assist you in arranging a larger service, based on availability. Simply pay the difference.
If you booked a half/full van collection but your items only filled a quarter/half van or less then we will refund you the difference in price. Either way you always get the best deal with Skoup!

Rob Lloyd 07 Apr 2021Quick, convenient and competitive! What a great idea needed to get rid of some household waste and this was by far the easiest and most competitive way, thank you also Lewis for keeping me informed when you would collect the waste.

Shaun Evans-Pask 06 Apr 2021Our council has closed our tip permanently and we now have to drive nearly 20 miles... That’s why we used Skoup the 1st time and now for the fourth time today. Every time Lewis has been a star. Friendly guy, does a great job, I’d rather pay them to come and collect from the house. Don’t even think about the tip these days.
