Waste removal in Splott (CF24 postcodes)
Rubbish Removal in Splott — From £160, Same-Day Service
Licensed, fully insured rubbish removal across Splott and the CF24 postcode area. Cardiff homes, gardens and local businesses — priced flat, disposed of properly, swept up before we leave. Same-day where we can, with a price estimate agreed before we start.
Splott is an inner-city area of Cardiff, set between the city centre and the docks, with a strong community identity around Splott Market and the railway line. Our CF24 postcode rounds cover Splott regularly, handling the terraced streets and the waterfront developments.
Our Cardiff rounds run weekly and cover Splott, Roath and Tremorfa, so most Splott jobs are collected within a day of the photo quote — usually the same day for jobs confirmed before mid-morning.
What Splott customers usually need
Suburban clearances around Splott are mostly the practical kind: lofts and garages full of decades of accumulation, house clearances for sales and downsizing, and landlords clearing between lets — the same steady pattern across Splott, Roath and Tremorfa.
Most of the work arrives from Splott, Roath and Tremorfa and the streets around them — and because we run the Cardiff rounds weekly, most Splott jobs are done within a day of the photo quote.
Every Splott collection is quoted flat on the photo, booked into a slot, disposed of at NRW-licensed facilities (licence CBDU034669), and finished with a sweep-up — the same standard right across the CF24 area, from Roath and Tremorfa to the far side of Splott.
How often do you collect in Splott, Adamsdown and Pengam Green?
Yes — the rounds through Cardiff take in Splott, Roath and Tremorfa, so Splott is covered every week. If you are just outside Splott, that is usually no problem at all: the same flat price applies right across Adamsdown, Pengam Green, Grangetown and Rumney, with no rural surcharge for being a mile or two off the beaten track.
Which postcodes do you cover around Splott, Adamsdown and Pengam Green?
We do. The CF24 belt — including Splott, Roath and Tremorfa — is on the rounds we run through Cardiff, and the per-van pricing stays the same wherever the load is collected. Not sure if your road counts? Message us a photo or a postcode and we will confirm in minutes.
What do you usually clear in Splott, around Adamsdown and Pengam Green?
Suburban clearances around Splott are mostly the practical kind: lofts and garages full of decades of accumulation, house clearances for sales and downsizing, and landlords clearing between lets — the same steady pattern across Splott, Roath and Tremorfa. In practice that means whole-house clearances, garden and garage empties, landlord turnarounds and single bulky items from Splott, Roath and Tremorfa — each quoted flat on a photo, with the same-day or next-day slot confirmed alongside the price.
How is Splott different from having the council collect it around Splott, Roath and Tremorfa?
Besides the price — £15 for one or two items, £30 for three or four, and £45 for five or six, plus a £5 booking fee — booked online, with items left at the kerbside against one flat van price from us — the practical difference is labour: we lift everything from wherever it is, while a council collection needs items at the kerbside. For a whole house or a heavy load in Splott, Roath or Tremorfa, that usually settles it.
How quickly can you collect in Splott, Adamsdown and Pengam Green?
For Splott, the CF24 belt around Adamsdown and Pengam Green, we can normally offer same-day where we can, otherwise next day with a morning or afternoon window. The slot is fixed and confirmed when we send the quote.
Why Splott Chooses Alpha Waste Removal
Homeowners, landlords and businesses across Splott, Roath and Tremorfa call us first when the waste has to go — and because Splott sits on our regular Cardiff rounds, we can normally be there the same day or the next.
There are plenty of people with vans operating in Splott, and we know it. So we do not ask you to take our word for it — we show you why homeowners, landlords and businesses across the Cardiff keep coming back, and why we are rated 9.77/10 on Checkatrade with over 80 combined reviews across Google, Checkatrade and Trustpilot.
We are a two-man crew operating a 16 cubic yard high-roof van — about 1.5× the size of the typical tipper vans most waste companies use. That single difference changes everything about your job: most clearances in Splott fit in one trip rather than two, and one trip costs one price. Garden clearances, renovation waste, a three-bed house clearance — we are usually done in a single visit where another crew would need two, two quotes, and twice your time.
We are licensed by Natural Resources Wales (licence CBDU034669 — checkable on the public register) and fully insured with public liability cover on every job in Splott and across Cardiff Council. Every load goes to licensed facilities with a waste transfer note provided as standard.
Fully licensed and insured — licence CBDU034669
We are an upper-tier registered waste carrier. That means your waste is never dumped on a country lane or in a neighbour's skip — every load goes to licensed facilities, and you never have to worry about the council knocking on your door about illegal dumping.
A 16 cu yd van — 1.5× bigger than most
Our van is not a standard tipper. It is a long-wheelbase, high-roof van measuring 16 cubic yards. A clearance that would be a full tipper plus half of another is one load for us, at one price.
Two crew on every job in Splott
Every collection is loaded by a two-man crew. Heavy furniture, wardrobes, washing machines and shed roofs come out fast and without damage to your doorframes or floors.
We sweep up before we leave
When the load is in the van, we sweep the area we have cleared — the drive, the garden, the hallway — and leave it as tidy as we found it. It takes five minutes and it is the difference between a job done and a job done properly.
Add honest flat pricing, free photo quotes and a phone that actually gets answered, and it’s why customers in Splott keep coming back to us.
What We Take Away in Splott
Everything from Splott, Roath and Tremorfa is in scope: house clearances, garden and garage empties, builder's rubble, furniture, white goods, and the bags and bulky items that the weekly bin collection cannot handle.
If it is waste, there is a good chance we will take it. Bags, furniture, rubble, garden cuttings, office clear-outs, dumped rubbish — it all goes in the van, and almost all of it gets recycled or recovered rather than buried. Here is the full rundown of what we do in Splott:
General waste & rubbish removal

Council collection versus a van load in Splott
Residents of Splott — and the households across Splott, Roath and Tremorfa — can book a bulky collection with Cardiff Council for £15 for one or two items, £30 for three or four, and £45 for five or six, plus a £5 booking fee — booked online, with items left at the kerbside; the service is limited to a maximum of six items per booking and you arrange it by having to book online through the council website.
The council collects on a booked date, items must be left outside at your usual collection point, and anything over six items needs a second booking. When you book a private crew like us instead, the price is estimated from the photo before we set off, we carry everything out of your house, garage or garden ourselves — across Splott, Roath and Tremorfa — and there is no per-item juggling: one flat price for the whole load.
Areas We Cover in Splott
We cover all of Splott, including Tremorfa, Pengam Green and Windsor Village, plus the areas around it: Adamsdown, Plasnewydd and the city centre to the west, Roath and Penylan to the north, and Butetown and Cardiff Bay to the south-west. If you are just outside Splott, that is usually no problem at all — Cardiff is on our regular route, so the same flat price applies. Not sure if we cover your road? Drop us a message and we will confirm in minutes.

Real Jobs, Real Photos — Our Before & After Gallery
Anyone can promise a tidy clearance. We would rather show you one. We photograph almost every job we do — the pile before we start, the clean space after — so you can see exactly the standard we work to. Our before and after gallery is full of real clearances from across South Wales, including jobs in and around Splott.
How It Works — Three Simple Steps
We have kept the whole process as simple as it should be. No forms, no surveys, no waiting around for a site visit:
1. Send us a photo
WhatsApp us a photo of the waste — or a few, if it is spread around the house. We will come back with an estimate, usually within minutes. That is your estimate. No site visit needed, no sitting in waiting for an estimator.
2. We load it
We arrive at the time we agreed, in a van that is big enough for the job, with two of us to do the lifting. We load everything ourselves, work around you and your furniture, and sweep up before we leave.
3. You pay when it is loaded
You only pay once the van is loaded and you can see the job is done. Cash, bank transfer or card — whatever suits you. Then we take your waste to licensed facilities and dispose of it properly, with the paperwork to prove it. Book your slot ›

Are you licensed and insured?

Flat prices, estimated before we start: full van £450, half load £290, smaller jobs from £160. Garden waste is cheaper at £80–£250. The price from your photos is an estimate. The final price is confirmed once we give you the price on-site, before we load anything.
Do you load everything yourselves?
Yes — we bring a two-man crew and do all the lifting, from any room, the garden or the loft. You do not need to move anything to the kerb or drag it outside. That is what you are paying us for.
What areas of Splott and the surrounding area do you cover?
Splott is on our regular east Cardiff rounds. We cover the CF24 and east Cardiff areas — including Tremorfa, Pengam Green and Adamsdown — with same-day available on most jobs.

How do I book a collection in Splott?
Send a photo on WhatsApp and we will confirm the price and a slot — usually the same day. Message us here ›
Is it cheaper than hiring a skip in Splott?
Usually, once you add up the skip hire, the council permit if it sits on the road, and the days you spend loading it yourself. Our van is bigger than a standard tipper, so a full load goes further — and we do all the lifting for you.
