- End of tenancy clearances – Essential for landlords and tenants facing tight deadlines

Domestic Waste Removal Made Easy For Exeter Homes
Many Exeter households face the same frustrating waste removal challenges. You’re not alone if you’ve experienced any of these common pain points:
Bulky items that won’t fit in wheelie bins
Old furniture, like sofas, chairs, and broken tables, creates immediate headaches. Mattresses are particularly problematic, as many households struggle to dispose of these bulky items properly.
Multiple tip runs eating your weekend
Loading your car repeatedly for trips to the recycling centre wastes precious hours. Even worse, you might arrive only to be turned away because of mixed waste or restricted items.
DIY project aftermath
After home improvements, you’re left with plasterboard, tiles, wood, and rubble. Many people aren’t sure what’s accepted at recycling centres, leading to confusion and wasted trips.
Carpets and underlay removal
These are big, heavy, and awkward to transport, making them one of the most challenging household waste items to dispose of properly.
Garden waste mixed with general waste
It’s often confusing to separate different types of waste, especially when decluttering involves both garden waste and household items.
Broken toys, plastics, and everyday clutter
These items build up quickly during household decluttering, but fitting them into regular waste collection can be nearly impossible.
At Throw & Tow Eco Skips, we offer a convenient solution to these challenges. We pride ourselves on eco-friendly practices, ensuring that your waste is disposed of responsibly. Additionally, we handle all necessary permits, making the process hassle-free for you.
Whether you’re preparing for the festive season or tackling a home project, our skip hire service can help you manage your waste efficiently and responsibly.

Frequently Asked Questions
We have compiled a list of our frequently asked questions to help you make your decision. Everything from our online booking system to the prompt time we arrive at the designated location is designed to ensure quick, efficient and cost-effective removal of your unwanted Exeter domestic waste.
Do you offer same-day skip hire?
We do offer same-day skip hire and skip collection services across Mid, East and West Devon. However, if you need waste collected at a specific time or place, our wait-and-load van could be the Exeter domestic waste collection service that will best suit your needs.
How long can I keep the skip for?
All of our fixed skips are available for up to 14 days as standard hire, however, additional days can be added to your hire if required.
Do I need a permit for my skip?
You only need a permit if the skip is placed on a public road or pavement. If you have a driveway or private land, no permit is required. We can arrange road permits for you – our team can assist you with all the necessary paperwork and manage any road permits before the delivery of your skip.
Can I put my skip on my driveway?
Placing your skip on a driveway is the ideal solution as it doesn’t require a permit and provides easy access for loading. However, be aware that skips are heavy and may cause damage to softer surfaces like block paving. Consider placing wooden boards underneath for protection.
Can I extend my hire period?
If you need your skip longer than 14 days, just call us before the collection date. We can extend the hire period for an additional charge.
