Construction waste job completed yesterday ✔️

Wood, metal and around 1.5 tonnes of glass all responsibly disposed of, leaving the trades free to focus on the job they’re actually there to do.

No fuss, no mess, just a tidy site ready for the next stage of the project.

Just a friendly reminder when comparing waste removal quotes, folks.

If you receive a quote that seems incredibly cheap, it’s always worth asking a few questions:

✅ Are you a registered waste carrier?
✅ Will I receive a waste transfer note?
✅ Will I get an invoice or receipt?

The answers can often tell you a lot about where your waste is actually ending up.

For a bit of context, some typical commercial disposal costs are:

• Mattresses: £30–£45 each
• Couches: Around £35 each
• White goods: Around £50 each
• General waste: £241 per tonne
• Wood: Around £75 per tonne

And that’s before fuel, labour, vehicle costs, insurance, maintenance, tools and other business overheads.

I’m always happy to help where I can and keep prices as fair as possible, but it’s worth keeping these costs in mind when comparing quotes.

At the end of the day, we all want to keep the Highlands bonnie, support responsible local businesses, and make sure waste is disposed of properly.

If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. 🤷‍♂️

👍

Compost bin removal and garden tidy-up completed ✅

This compost bin had become overfilled and was starting to collapse under its own weight. We dismantled the structure, removed unwanted materials, tidied the surrounding area and left the space clear and ready for whatever comes next.

Another satisfying transformation for a local customer.

A busy day for Highland Tidy today with 3 separate jobs completed across the area. 💪♻️

Today’s work included helping a local pub clear out some old planters and waste, a garage clearance and a household waste collection.

Individually none of the jobs looked huge, but together they filled the van by the end of the day and were all collected and disposed of responsibly.

It’s always surprising how quickly waste adds up. A few items here and there soon become a full van load.

Thanks to all my customers for the work and support, it’s genuinely appreciated.

If you’ve got waste needing uplifted, a garage needing cleared, or just want an idea of costs, send me a photo and I’ll happily provide a rough estimate.

Bit of a different one for me this week 👇

Gave the steps and outside area at the The Railway, Tain a proper clean up – of moss and grime, fag ends, chewing gum and glass gone and looking a lot better now 💧

This one was done using the customer’s own setup, so not something I’m fully geared up for as a standalone service just now – but always happy to help out if I’m already on site and it needs doing.

If anyone is looking for professional pressure washing services and doesn’t have the gear, I can always point you in the right direction 👍

Appreciate the work from the Railway Hotel and all the local support 👌
