End of Tenancy Clearance in Co. Meath
A tenancy ends and the property isn’t empty. We clear what’s left, photograph it empty, and get it back on the market — for landlords, agents and tenants across Meath.

Every landlord has had it: the keys come back and the place is half full. A mattress, a broken wardrobe, bags in the hall, a fridge full of something, the furniture the tenant didn’t want to pay to move. Every void week costs rent, and the letting agent can’t photograph it like that. On the other side, tenants moving out of Meath often need the opposite — the furniture they bought gone before the inspection so the deposit comes back whole.
We clear rental properties the same or next day where we can, photograph them empty, and invoice properly for the file. ManageWaste.ie is operated by Krystal Klean Express Limited, permit NWCPO-25-13287-01, fully insured. Meath is a proper run for us — south Meath (Enfield, Dunboyne, Dunshaughlin, Ashbourne) is about an hour from Athy via the M4 and M50, Navan and Trim roughly 80 minutes, and Kells, Oldcastle and the coast around Laytown nearer an hour and three-quarters. We cover it by grouping Meath jobs on set days each week, so a one-off job here is priced as part of a round rather than a special trip.

Full end of tenancy clearance in Meath
The whole property emptied of everything that isn’t the landlord’s: abandoned furniture and belongings, bagged rubbish, the contents of the fridge and presses, the balcony or garden, the bin store if the tenant left things there. Landlord’s fittings and furniture stay. We photograph each room before and after, note anything damaged we come across, and leave the property swept so the agent can photograph it. Most apartments and small houses are a half-day; larger houses or those left in a bad state are a day.
For agents managing several units we set up an account and a standing arrangement: email the address and the access, we do the rest.
Partial clearance — the items the tenant left behind
Usually it isn’t the whole property, it’s a few things: the mattress, the sofa, the bags in the hall, the bike in the garden. We’ll collect just those, often the same day, and send you a photo of the space clear. For tenants moving out we do the reverse — collect the furniture you don’t want to take, before the landlord’s inspection.
What we take — and what we don’t
- Abandoned furniture, mattresses and bedding
- Fridges, freezers and appliances left full
- Bagged rubbish and loose belongings
- Carpets, rugs and curtains past their best
- Balcony, garden and shed contents
- Items dumped in bin stores and common areas
- Before-and-after photographs for your file
- Sweep to broom-clean, with full cleaning available
Not included: Landlord’s own furniture and fittings (unless instructed); Legal process for abandoned goods — follow it first, then call us; Repairs and redecoration.
End of Tenancy Clearance across Co. Meath: every town we cover
We provide an end of tenancy clearance in all 52 towns and villages below, and at the rural addresses between them. Meath is big and busy: the commuter towns along the Dublin border (Ashbourne, Ratoath, Dunboyne, Dunshaughlin, Clonee) grew enormously in the 2000s; Navan, Trim and Kells are the old market towns in the middle; the coast strip from Laytown to Mornington looks to Drogheda; and the north and west — Oldcastle, Nobber, Athboy, Enfield — is rural and quiet. Meath County Council runs no bulky-waste collection. Its three recycling centres (Navan, Kells, Trim) charge a flat gate fee plus a price per item of furniture, and there is no council site at all in east Meath — people in Ashbourne, Ratoath, Dunboyne and the coast are sent to Dunboyne’s private facility or across the county line.
Expect large 2000s estates of semis and townhouses in the commuter towns, plenty of apartment schemes in Ashbourne, Navan and Dunboyne with management-company rules, Georgian and Victorian terraces in Navan, Trim and Kells town centres, and farmhouses with yards and outbuildings across the rest of the county. Long driveways and rural lanes are more of a factor here than parking.

Doing it yourself in Meath: what the council offers
Before you ring anyone, here is the honest picture of what Meath County Council will and won’t do for an end of tenancy clearance. Furniture and bulky items are accepted at Navan Recycling Centre (Civic Amenity Site), Kells Recycling Centre (Civic Amenity Site) and Trim Recycling Centre (Civic Amenity Site), with mattresses charged separately (Per item on top of the gate fee: single mattress €15, double €20, king €25 (Oxigen's own list says €30), mattress topper/duvet €5–€10, single divan €10, double divan €15, 3-seater couch €20, 2-seater €15, corner couch €35, armchair €12, patio table €10, patio chair €5, large carpet/lino roll €25, small roll €15, bag of carpet/lino €5, standard refuse sack of mixed domestic or non-recyclable waste €5, large plastic toy €5, toilet/cistern/basin €5, bath/shower tray €10). Dunboyne Recycling Facility (Thorntons Recycling) does not accept furniture or mattresses at all. Electrical items — fridges, washing machines, TVs, computers — are free to drop at every council site as WEEE, and we take them as part of any job. Watch the vehicle rules: Cars, vans and trailers admitted; vans and trailers pay load-based rates (green waste small van €10, large van €50). Commercial vehicles charged separately (timber €40 per van or €1.50 per pallet, scrap metal €50 per load, cardboard €30 per van, paper €40 per van). Fair-usage policy applies.
Meath County Council — no bulky-waste collection. Meath County Council does not collect household or bulky waste from homes and does not run a bookable bulky-item collection. Bulky household waste is to be brought to the three council recycling centres at Navan, Kells and Trim (run under contract by Oxigen Environmental), where it is charged per item on top of a €2 gate fee, or to Thorntons Dunboyne. Alternatively use an authorised private collector (check the NWCPO permit register). The council does run several free amnesty / drop-off weeks each year: a free mattress drop-off (typically April; e.g. Navan 18 April, Trim 19 April, Thorntons Dunboyne 19 April, Kells 20 April in 2024), a free bulky-furniture week in late July/August (couches, beds, chairs, tables, wardrobes, outdoor furniture, garden equipment, toys, trampolines, flooring, sanitary ware - mattresses excluded) rotating through Navan, Trim, Kells and Dunboyne, and a Halloween anti-bonfire drop-off in late October (furniture suites, beds, divans, bed frames, flooring, duvets, pillows, toys, doors, windows - no mattresses, paint, domestic or green waste). Rules: householders only, Meath residents only (bring photo ID plus a utility bill or driving licence), no commercial customers, and the €2 gate fee still applies. The council said in April 2026 the mattress amnesty and a sofa amnesty would run again in 2026; dates are announced on meath.ie, the council's social media and in the Meath Chronicle, and enquiries go to environment@meathcoco.ie.

Council details are taken from the councils’ own published information and checked periodically; hours and charges change, so confirm with the site before travelling. Where a council hasn’t published a charge we say so rather than guess.
Or we come to you
Set that against a collection from us: no van to borrow, no gate fee, no weighbridge surprise, no two-mattress limit, no carrying it down the stairs yourself, and no question about whether the site will turn your load away. We quote a fixed price from photos, we load it, and it leaves under our waste collection permit (NWCPO-25-13287-01). For a single item the council site can be cheaper if you already have the van and the time; for anything more than a car-boot load, we usually are.

End of Tenancy Clearance in Meath: frequently asked questions
How fast can you clear a rental in Meath?
Small jobs often the same day; full properties usually within one to two working days. Tell us the re-let or viewing date and we’ll work to it.
Can I deduct this from the tenant’s deposit?
That’s between you, the tenant and the RTB rules — we can’t advise. What we do is give you a proper invoice and before-and-after photos so you have the evidence if it comes to that.
The tenant left belongings. Can you just take them?
Once you’ve followed the correct process for abandoned goods, yes. We’re not able to advise on the notice period, but once it’s done we clear and photograph everything.
Do you work with letting agents?
Yes — a lot of our Meath end-of-tenancy work is for agents. We set up account terms, accept instructions by email, and send photos and invoices per property.
I’m the tenant. Can you take my furniture before I hand back the keys?
Yes. Book us for the day before the inspection and we’ll take the furniture you don’t want to move. Many tenants find it’s cheaper than moving it.
Do you clean as well?
Broom-clean is standard. A full end-of-tenancy clean can be added and quoted with the clearance.
Do you work with the RTB deposit rules?
We don’t advise on them — that’s between you, the tenant and the RTB. What we give you is before-and-after photos and a proper invoice, which is the evidence you’ll need either way.
Can you clear several units in one day?
Yes — agents and landlords with a block of units book us for the lot, and we invoice per unit so the costs land in the right file.
Can you also arrange cleaning and small repairs?
Cleaning yes, quoted alongside the clearance. Small repairs we can point you to a tradesperson for.
Will you take the fridge with food still in it?
Yes. We empty and bag the contents, take the fridge for WEEE recycling, and leave the kitchen clean enough to photograph.
How quickly can you turn a void around in Meath?
Small jobs the same day where we can; full clearances within one to two working days.
Does Meath County Council collect bulky items?
No. Meath County Council does not run a bulky-waste collection. Your options are the council recycling centres listed above — with their charges and limits — or a permitted private collector like us.
How far is Meath from your base?
Meath is a proper run for us — south Meath (Enfield, Dunboyne, Dunshaughlin, Ashbourne) is about an hour from Athy via the M4 and M50, Navan and Trim roughly 80 minutes, and Kells, Oldcastle and the coast around Laytown nearer an hour and three-quarters. We cover it by grouping Meath jobs on set days each week, so a one-off job here is priced as part of a round rather than a special trip.
