Our work
Before & After
A recent clearance — cleared, loaded and disposed of responsibly.
Clay Country Clearances
Waste Removal in St Austell
St Austell sits beneath the white clay tips of the Cornish Alps, with Fore Street and Church Street at its heart and the A390 carrying traffic towards Truro and Lostwithiel. Whether you are clearing a terrace near Holy Trinity Church or a bungalow near Carlyon Bay, we handle the loading and disposal.
Fore Street Shop Fronts
Loading near Fore Street and Church Street means timing pickups around the town centre's shoppers and pedestrian areas.
Clay Workers' Terrace Clearances
Narrow terraced cottages built for china clay workers often mean carrying furniture out through tight front doors and steep stairs.
Steep Roads to Charlestown
Charlestown Road drops steeply to the harbour, so we plan van positioning carefully before any heavy loading starts.
Clay Country Building Rubble
Extensions and renovations around the clay villages produce plenty of brick, hardcore, and plasterboard for us to sort and remove.

Heritage of the White Clay Tips
A Town Shaped by China Clay and Harbour Trade
St Austell grew on china clay, and the pale tips of the Cornish Alps still dominate the skyline north of town, while Charlestown's Georgian harbour reminds visitors of its shipping past.
Charlestown's Georgian Harbour
The historic harbour at Charlestown, home to tall ships and period filming, draws crowds that make parking and vehicle access tight in peak season.
Holy Trinity Church Streets
The medieval church tower rises above the older streets of the town centre, where narrow frontages limit vehicle access.
Clay Village Renovations
Around Roche and St Stephen-in-Brannel, older cottages are regularly renovated, creating steady demand for rubble and debris removal.
Brewery Town Heritage
St Austell Brewery on Trevarthian Road, founded in 1851, anchors the town's long trading history.
If your job is near Charlestown harbour, book outside summer weekends when visitors fill the roads. For town-centre pickups around Fore Street and Church Street, tell us about parking restrictions when you call so we can plan loading time.
