Bins put out on collection morning and brought back in the same day - regular reliable service so you never miss collection day or struggle with heavy wheelie bins.
When The Bins Are A Proper Chore
Heavy wheelie bins. Long driveway. Bad back. Recovering from surgery. Away on holiday. Sometimes getting the bins out is genuinely difficult - and missing collection day means two weeks of rubbish piling up.
Let me handle it every week.
💡 Worth knowing: This is one of the most popular services for elderly customers and those with mobility issues. It's practical, affordable, and makes a real difference.

Regular routine - I track the collection schedule, know which bins go out, everything handled automatically.
🔧 DIY Tips
If you want to manage bins yourself but struggle, here are some tricks:
🚮 Making it easier
- Store bins as close to the collection point as possible
- Use a bin with wheels in good condition (council will replace knackered ones)
- Don't overfill - they get too heavy and collectors may refuse them
- Ask a neighbour if they can help on bin day
♿ Assisted collections
- Exeter council offers "assisted collections" for elderly/disabled residents
- They'll collect from your property boundary rather than the kerbside
- Free service but you need to apply and qualify
- Phone the council to check eligibility
📅 Setting reminders
- Put bin day reminders in your phone
- Leave bins partially visible as a memory prompt
- Ask a neighbour to knock if they see you've forgotten
⚠️ Common issues
- Wheelie bins get heavy when full (general waste especially)
- Long driveways or steps make it exhausting
- Forgetting which bin is which week
- Being away when collection is due
💡 Pro trick: If you struggle with weight, keep a garden waste caddy near the kitchen and empty it daily so it never gets too heavy. Same with recycling - do small frequent trips rather than one big full bin.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
🎯 Holiday lets or rental properties? This service is brilliant for properties you don't live in. Bins get managed, property looks occupied, tenants/guests don't need to worry about it.
Combined with bin day reminder? If you just want reminding rather than full service, we offer that too - see Bin Day Reminder service.
What about bank holidays? Collections get moved to the next day. I track this automatically - you don't need to tell me.
Access and keys: Most customers provide a key or gate code. Everything is secure and insured. I've done this for hundreds of Exeter properties - references available if needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does this work?
I come on bin day morning, wheel your bins from your property to the collection point, then return later that day to bring them back in and put them away. You don't lift a finger.
What if it's an awkward access?
Most properties in Exeter have side access or need bins brought through the house. That's fine - I'm used to it. Long driveways, narrow gates, steps - I've done it all.
Do you know which bins to put out each week?
Yes - I track the council collection schedule. General waste one week, recycling the next, garden waste in summer. You don't need to tell me - I already know.
What if I'm on holiday or away?
That's exactly when this service is most useful. Bins still go out, house looks occupied, you come back to empty wheelie bins rather than overflowing ones.
How much is it per month?
£85-£110 per month depending on how many bins and how often. Works out at about £20-25 per collection. Cancel anytime.
