Fast, Affordable Rubbish Removal in Christchurch
Some jobs are too big for the wheelie bin and too much faff for a skip. That's our sweet spot. Priory House Clearance is a Christchurch firm offering fast, genuinely affordable rubbish removal across the town, Bournemouth, Poole and the wider Dorset area — we turn up, do the lifting and the loading, and take the lot away. The only thing you have to lift is the phone.
Why choose us for rubbish removal?
There's no shortage of firms round here promising to shift your rubbish, so why us? In a word, reliability. We're a long-established, hard-working local team who turn up when we say we will, keep our prices wallet-friendly, and never — ever — dump your waste down a country lane. Everything is reused, recycled or disposed of properly under our Environment Agency waste carriers licence.
Cheaper and easier than a skip
A skip means paying for the skip, often a council permit if it's going on the road, and then doing all the heavy lifting yourself — before watching it sit on the drive for a fortnight. We're the simpler option: we bring the van and the muscle, load everything for you, and only charge for what we actually take. No permit, no waiting, no aching back — and same-day collection is often available.

Rest assured that every service we provide is above board. We have a superb track record serving both domestic and business customers across Dorset. We are registered and licensed with the Environment Agency (waste carriers licence) and we have premium public liability insurance, as you would expect from any professional company.

Rubbish removal so often goes hand in hand with a bigger clear-out, so if there's a house and property clearance, a shed clearance or a garage clearance on the cards too, roll them together and we'll keep the price down.
There's no much that we can't collect, remove or dispose of, but below you can find a list of the most common things we shift. If you have some items that need moving but unsure if we can help you, then please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Frequently Asked Questions about Rubbish Clearance
What types of rubbish do you take?
Household clutter, furniture, white goods and appliances, general waste and bagged rubbish, plus commercial and business waste. If you are unsure whether we can take something, just ask — the answer is almost always yes.
Is this cheaper than hiring a skip?
Very often, yes. With a skip you pay for the skip, a permit if it is on the road, and you do all the loading yourself. We turn up, do the lifting and only charge for what we actually take away — no permit, no waiting, no heavy lifting for you.
Do you take fridges and other white goods?
Yes. Fridges, freezers, washing machines, cookers and the like are all handled and recycled correctly under WEEE rules.
What exactly is a Waste Transfer Note (WTN) and why is it legally important?
A Waste Transfer Note is a legal document required under the UK's Waste Regulations 2011. It records the details of the waste being transferred, who produced it, and who is taking it away, including their Waste Carrier Licence number. We issue a completed Waste Transfer Note on every collection we make. This acts as your official legal proof that your rubbish has been handed to a registered carrier, keeping you fully compliant with UK waste laws.
How do you handle domestic fridges and freezers in accordance with environmental law?
Domestic refrigeration units must be handled with care due to ozone-depleting substances and greenhouse gases contained within their cooling circuits and insulation foam. Under UK and environmental directives, we transport all fridges and freezers to accredited WEEE treatment facilities. Here, specialized machinery safely extracts and neutralizes the refrigerants and oils in a controlled environment to prevent air and soil pollution.
Are there any restrictions on the volume of trade or construction rubbish you can clear?
We do not have a volume limit. Since we run high-capacity vans and employ experienced teams, we can clear anything from a few bags of trade rubbish to multiple full van loads of shop fit-out or renovation waste. For major commercial or site clearances across the BCP region and the New Forest, we can coordinate multiple vehicles and staff to get the job done quickly.
What are the rules for commercial waste vs. domestic waste at local recycling centres?
In the UK, local municipal recycling centres (tips) are funded by council tax and are strictly reserved for residents disposing of their own household waste. It is illegal for commercial businesses to use these domestic facilities. As a commercial clearance firm, we must pay commercial tipping fees based on weight and material classification at fully licenced private transfer stations, which is why business-backed clearance services carry professional charges.
Can you clear commercial food waste or organic restaurant waste?
Under the Animal By-Products Regulations and general UK commercial food waste laws, we cannot transport bulk commercial food waste or catering refuse in our standard dry-clearance vans. We specialize in dry waste, packaging, shop fittings, and general commercial rubbish. For regular food waste collections, you will need to instruct a specialized food-grade environmental contractor.
Do you collect and dispose of commercial clinical waste or medical packaging?
We do not handle clinical waste, hazardous biological materials, active medical sharps, or chemically contaminated medical packaging, as these require specialized hazardous waste documentation and containment systems under UK health regulations. If you have non-clinical cardboard packaging, office paper, or general reception furniture, we can clear those elements with ease.
What is your process for recycling cardboard, soft plastics, and packaging materials?
For large quantities of cardboard, paper, and protective transit plastics, we segregate these materials on our vehicles during the clearance. They are then delivered directly to local commercial recycling merchants in Dorset where they are baled, pulped, and processed back into raw manufacturing materials, aligning with our commitment to divert as much waste from landfill as possible.
