    Arrived on time, professional and friendly

    Posted 19 January

    I needed some sheds removing but I had not managed to find time to dismantle the last 2 myself. Larry and his team were happy to dismantle them for me. They arrived on time and were professional and friendly. Site cleared as required and waste transfer note supplied. Waste-Away are a legit business who can be trusted and I'm not suprised about their excellent review score.
