About this service
What rubbish clearance in Bristol actually looks like.
Cheaper than a skip for most jobs, and nowhere near as much faff. I turn up, do the loading, and take it to a licensed transfer station. You get a receipt — your shed gets to look like a shed again.
- Household, garden and garage waste in one visit
- Builder’s waste and post-renovation rubble
- Same-day and next-day slots where possible

About us
Checkatrade — 9.8/10 · 164 ReviewsBristol Local Van Man — removals and clearance in Bristol.
Bristol Local Van Man is run by Nigel, a Nailsea-based owner-operator with 15+ years in removals and clearance across Bristol, Bath and the wider South West. We handle removals, rubbish clearance, house clearance and office clearance under one roof.
Most jobs are done by Nigel direct. Busy weeks and larger jobs bring in trusted local drivers Nigel has worked with for years — every one carries the same waste-carrier paperwork and works to the same fixed-price standard.
Waste is carried away under our UK registered waste carrier licence (CBDU445737), so items taken off your property go to a licensed facility rather than a side street.
Whether you’re moving a one-bed flat in central Bristol, clearing a probate property in Bath, or stripping out an office in Weston-super-Mare, get a price up front before anything is loaded.

Are you a licensed waste carrier?
Yes. We hold a UK waste carrier licence (CBDU445737), so any rubbish, house clearance or office clearance we take away is transported and disposed of at a licensed facility.
How do I get a quote?
Fill in the quote form on this page with a few details about your job, or call us on 0117 379 0306. We’ll come back to you with a price for your Bristol removal or clearance.
What’s the difference between rubbish clearance and house clearance?
Rubbish clearance is usually a single type of waste — garden waste, a shed full of rubble, a bulk bag of builder’s offcuts. House clearance is a larger, mixed job: sorting and removing the contents of a whole room, flat or property, typical for end-of-tenancy, probate or downsizing.
Do you do house clearances in Bath?
Yes — we cover house clearances across Bath, Bristol, Weston-super-Mare, Bridgwater and most of the South West. The quote takes the collection postcode and disposal journey into account.
Can I book a single-item move?
Yes. A lot of our removals work is single items and part loads — sofas, beds, fridges, garden furniture — as well as full house moves.
