Clearabee is the UK’s largest man and van rubbish removal company. We operate across the UK using our own in-house teams and our own fleet of more than 100 vehicles. We can clear most waste streams, from most locations, on the same day or a day of your choice. We also offset all of the CO2 generated by our vehicles with our own forest. We also offer skip bags, skip hire and total waste management services. As the UK’s largest clearance company and a national waste management company we take our environmental obligations very seriously. One of our larger achievements is the planting of our 3 carbon forests which has put over 43,000 new trees into the ground. this has led us to become a carbon neutral-company since 2018 and in the future we’re looking towards reducing carbon as well as offsetting. We are also committed to handling waste responsibly and are able to perform nationwide waste collections with high rates of recycling. Each finished job gets its own waste transfer note so you know for sure your waste has been dealt with properly.

UPDATE

UPDATE (24/8/26)

After a whole week of direct correspondence being completely ignored, the van magically disappeared the moment a 1-star review hit their 4.8-star rating.
It was not sorted by housing officers, property managers, or any of the paid professionals whose actual job it was to fix it. It was sorted by me sticking to my guns, gathering the evidence, and calling out the obstruction publicly to nip it in the bud.

The vehicle has not been back since, but the silence from Clearabee speaks volumes. A simple apology from customer service for ignoring a basic disabled access issue would have been the bare minimum, but they ignored me then and they are ignoring me now.

It is clear what actually moves them, but at least the access route is finally clear for residents. The dropped kerb and tactile paving are completely clear. It should not take a resident refusing to back down to get basic disabled access respected.

And… MY time-consuming job is done, no thanks to Clearabee Customer Service!

Clearabee drivers show a complete disregard for accessibility. Vehicle FN21 HWX has been persistently parked at the entrance of the car park in Sale (M33), directly over the dropped kerb and yellow tactile paving, completely blocking wheelchair access.

Despite the car park having over 20 marked & mostly empty bays, the driver chooses to block the kerb, right next to one and all weekend!

Having contacted Clearabee directly and involved my housing association to fix this privately, I am being ignored. Because of Clearabee's inaction, I am now forced into collating evidence for a formal Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) and accessibility complaint. Public safety and disabled access should not be sacrificed for driver convenience.

Easy to arrange and efficient

Easy to arrange via the website which was clear on the items and cost. Good communication in the days before and on the day with the alert and ability to track the van coming. The guys were efficient, fast, friendly, and took care removing the sofa and footstool. Excellent all round

Avoid!

Avoid. Awful customer experience. They’re completely unreliable; didn’t show up all day and decided to reschedule to next day just like that.

A very helpful and friendly operator…

A very helpful and friendly operator who came, checked everything that needed taking away, and then proceeded to remove everything - then off he went! He even managed to keep calm when a neighbour 'needed' to get to her property (we live in a no entry, end of lane place!). She only needed to wait 3 mins max...! Say no more.
Thank you.

Collection Was Great

Collection was great.
Very happy with the ability to track the driver as I was able to be outside when he arrived.
Done and dusted in minutes.
