I contacted Dumpit Scotland as I had a broken hot tub that I needed taken away. From start to finish they were quick to respond to messages, booked an appointment, turned up and did a professional job in removing the hot tub. I would recommend their services and company to anyone.

Why a SEPA registered carrier matters
In Scotland the law puts a duty of care on you, the waste holder. Use a professional, registered company and you are covered. Use a cheap, unregistered one and the risk lands on you.
- Your waste is tracked and legalAs a SEPA registered carrier (WCR/R/3002381) we are licensed to carry and dispose of your waste properly.
- You get a waste transfer noteEvery job comes with a duty of care waste transfer note, your proof the rubbish was handled legally.
- Recycled, not fly-tippedWe divert over 80% of what we collect from landfill, sorted at licensed facilities. Your junk never ends up dumped on a back road.
Give your waste to the wrong person and the fine is yoursIf your rubbish is fly-tipped after you hand it over, even by someone else, you can face fines of up to £5,000. Always check the carrier is SEPA registered.
Where it goes
What happens to your rubbish
Rubbish removal in Glasgow is what we have done every day for fifteen years. From our base in Clarkston our crews cover the whole city, Edinburgh and all of Scotland, clearing homes, gardens, offices and building sites, often the same day you send us a photo.
Unlike a hired skip that sits on the road for a week, our rubbish removal service is done in one visit, and you always know where your waste ends up. As a SEPA registered carrier we issue a duty of care waste transfer note with every job, whether it is a single sofa in Shawlands or a full house clearance in Newton Mearns. See the areas we cover or send a photo for a fixed price.
Waste transfer note with every job
1
Collected from your doorWe lift, load and sweep up. You do not carry a thing.
2
Sorted at a licensed facilityEvery load is tipped and sorted at a licensed waste transfer station, never a lay-by.
3
Recycled or responsibly disposedOver 80% of what we collect is diverted from landfill, wood, metal, cardboard and furniture separated for recycling.
Sound familiar?
Getting rid of rubbish shouldn’t be this hard
Most people try the obvious routes first. Here is why they fall short, and why families and businesses across Scotland call us instead.
Hiring a skip
The obvious choice, until you look into it
- A council permit if it sits on the street
- Blocks your drive for days on end
- You still load every last bit yourself
- You pay for the space even if you part-fill it
- Neighbours top it up and you foot the bill
Hiring a van yourself
Sounds simple. It rarely is
- Van hire, fuel and your whole Saturday gone
- Tip queues, and many refuse commercial waste
- Several trips if you misjudge the load
- Every bit of heavy lifting is on you
Council uplift
Free, if you can wait
- Waiting times of weeks, not days
- Strict limits on what they will take
- No-shows mean you rebook and wait again
- You still carry it all out to the kerb
