Black bag collection — £3 per bag, no minimum
Black bags are the most common waste problem in Cardiff: they're full, the wheelie bin is full, and the tip is a car journey you keep putting off. We collect loose black bags for a flat £3 each — no van-load minimum, no call-out fee, no “it depends”.
Send a photo of the stack and we'll quote the total straight back, then come and take them — usually the same day. Bags on a pavement, bags in a back garden, bags stacked in a hallway: we take them from wherever they are. Every load goes to a licensed facility, most of it gets sorted for recycling, and you get the space back.

Your questions answered
How much do you charge for black bags?
£3 per bag, dropping to £2.50 a bag when you're booking 40 or more. We quote the total on a photo before we arrive, and you only pay once the van is loaded.
Do I need to book a full van load for a few bags?
No — bags are priced per bag, not per load. A handful of bags is a legitimate small job for us, and we'll happily collect them on their own or alongside a bigger clearance.
Can you take bags from inside the house?
Yes. If the bags are too heavy to move, or they're stacked upstairs, we'll come in and take them from wherever they are — that's included.
What can go in the black bags?
Household waste, general rubbish and the sort of mixed waste a clear-out produces. The only things we can't take anywhere are fridges and freezers, and asbestos — and very heavy rubble is better priced by the load than by the bag.
How quickly can you collect black bags?
Same day where we can in Cardiff and Newport — often within hours if you message before mid-morning. Next-day slots are almost always available.
