Flat Clearance in Co. Wexford
Flats in converted houses, over shops, in older complexes — no lift, a narrow stairs, a front door straight onto the street. Different from a modern apartment block, and we clear them differently.

When people in Wexford say “flat” they usually mean something older than an apartment: the top floor of a converted Victorian or Georgian house, a bedsit, a flat over a shop on the main street, or a unit in a council flat complex. There’s no lift and no loading bay. The stairs are steep and turn twice. The front door opens onto the footpath and the only parking is on the street outside — if you’re lucky. The furniture may have been built in the room because it won’t fit back down the stairs.
That’s a different job from a purpose-built apartment, and it’s one we know well. ManageWaste.ie is operated by Krystal Klean Express Limited, permit NWCPO-25-13287-01, fully insured. North Wexford is nearer us than you might think — Bunclody is 45 minutes from Athy, Enniscorthy and Gorey about an hour, New Ross a little more, and Wexford Town, Rosslare and the Hook about an hour and a half. We’re in Wexford every week, usually combining the north of the county with Carlow work.

Full flat clearance in Wexford
Every room emptied, including the shared landing cupboard if it’s yours and the coal-hole or basement store if there is one. We bring a crew sized for the stairs — a flat on the third floor of a converted house is a three-person job however small it is — and we dismantle what has to be dismantled: wardrobes, bed frames, the sofa that was carried up before the stair rail went in. We protect the stair walls and the door frames in the common hall because the other residents and the landlord will notice if we don’t. The truck is parked as close as the street allows and we carry in a steady run so nothing is left on the footpath.
Full flat clearances are typically a half-day for a bedsit or one-bed, a full day for a large two- or three-bed conversion with years of contents.
Partial flat clearance in Wexford
Often it’s one piece — the mattress, the sofa, the fridge — that a tenant can’t get down the stairs and the landlord can’t leave in the hall. We do single-item and few-item flat jobs all the time, and we price them for what they are: an hour’s work with a van, not a house clearance. For landlords with several flats in one building we’ll do the lot in one visit and split the invoice per unit.
What we take — and what we don’t
- Beds, mattresses, sofas, wardrobes — including dismantling on the spot
- Fridges, cookers, washing machines (WEEE)
- The contents of a bedsit or flat, boxed or loose
- Carpets, lino, curtains and blinds
- Items left behind by tenants, in the flat or the common hall
- Rubbish and bagged waste
- Bikes, prams and the things that live under the stairs
Not included: Hazardous waste; Structural fixtures that belong to the building (fitted kitchens, radiators) unless the landlord instructs it.
Flat Clearance across Co. Wexford: every town we cover
We provide a flat clearance in all 105 towns and villages below, and at the rural addresses between them. Wexford is a long county: Gorey and the Courtown coast in the north, Enniscorthy on the Slaney in the middle, New Ross on the Barrow in the west, Wexford Town and Rosslare in the south-east and the Hook peninsula in the far south, with the biggest run of villages in Leinster between them. Wexford County Council runs no bulky-waste collection, and only one of its four recycling centres — Holmestown near Wexford Town — takes furniture, mattresses and general waste; Enniscorthy, New Ross and Gorey are recyclables and WEEE only. So for most of the county, bulky waste means a long drive to Holmestown or a permitted collector.
Wexford Town has Georgian and Victorian terraces on narrow streets, Gorey and Enniscorthy grew fast in the 2000s with large estates and apartment schemes, and the coast from Courtown to Rosslare is full of holiday homes and mobile-home parks that need clearing at the end of a season or a sale. Inland it’s farmhouses with yards and sheds, and bungalows on their own sites.

Doing it yourself in Wexford: what the council offers
Before you ring anyone, here is the honest picture of what Wexford County Council will and won’t do for a flat clearance. Furniture and bulky items are accepted at Holmestown Household Recycling Centre, with mattresses charged separately (Bulky: single mattress/base €14, double €28, armchair €14, 2-seater €21, 3-seater €28, carpet €21). Enniscorthy Household Recycling Centre, New Ross Household Recycling Centre and Gorey Household Recycling Centre do not accept furniture or mattresses at all. Watch the vehicle rules: Vans and trailers admitted with set load bands: single-axle trailer/van €65–€100, double-axle trailer or large van €100–€150, extra-large van €180; domestic waste only.
Wexford County Council — no bulky-waste collection. Wexford County Council does not collect household or bulky waste from the kerb; bin collection is by licensed private operators listed on wexfordcoco.ie. Bulky furniture, mattresses and carpets are accepted only at the Holmestown Household Recycling Centre near Wexford town (per-item charges), or via an authorised private collector. Free anti-dumping amnesties run most years: a Mattress Amnesty across all four recycling centres over four weeks in September–October 2025 (Tue–Fri 8:15am–12pm and 1pm–4pm, limit 3 mattresses per vehicle, one entry per vehicle, €2 vehicle entry, households only, mattresses clean and dry), and a free Furniture Amnesty at Holmestown for three weeks from September 2026 (Tue–Fri 9am–3pm, freestanding furniture only such as tables, chairs and couches, max 4 items per household, one trip only, no mattresses, no commercial waste).

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.
How a flat clearance works with us
Photos and the stairs. Send photos and tell us the floor, whether the stairs turn, and the parking situation. A photo of the stairs helps more than you’d think.
Quote and date. Fixed price, agreed date, and a note of anything to be kept or returned to the landlord.
The clearance. Crew sized for the building, walls and frames protected, steady carry to the truck, footpath kept clear.
Done. Flat swept, hall left as found, photos sent.

What affects the price in Wexford
Floor and stairs — the single biggest factor for a flat
Parking — a street with no stopping means a longer carry and more time
Dismantling — furniture that must come apart to leave adds time
Volume — most flats are a half-day; long-let bedsits can surprise you
Reuse — good pieces reduce disposal cost
North Wexford is nearer us than you might think — Bunclody is 45 minutes from Athy, Enniscorthy and Gorey about an hour, New Ross a little more, and Wexford Town, Rosslare and the Hook about an hour and a half. We’re in Wexford every week, usually combining the north of the county with Carlow work. Send photos through the quote form or on WhatsApp and you’ll have a fixed price the same day.

Flat Clearance in Wexford: frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between a flat clearance and an apartment clearance?
Access. A flat in a converted house or over a shop has stairs, no lift, and street parking; a purpose-built apartment has a lift, a management company and a loading bay. The furniture is the same, the job isn’t — so we have a separate page for apartments in Wexford.
The wardrobe won’t fit down the stairs.
It will once we take it apart. We dismantle on site as standard — wardrobes, beds, large tables, the occasional sofa — and it’s included in the price.
I’m a landlord with a tenant’s things left behind. Can you clear it?
Yes. Make sure you’ve followed the proper notice process for abandoned belongings first — we can’t advise on that — and then we’ll clear the flat and the hall and photograph it empty for your file.
Can you clear a flat in a council complex?
Yes. We work in flat complexes regularly. Tell us the block and any access arrangements, and we’ll keep the stairwells and landings clear while we work.
Do you take mattresses?
Yes. Mattresses are the most common single item we take from flats. They go for recycling; the council sites that accept them charge per mattress, which is shown lower down this page.
Do you cover all of Wexford?
Yes — every town and village on this page and the addresses in between. Above-shop flats on main streets are a particular speciality because of the parking.
Can you work around the other residents?
Yes. We keep the stairs and hall clear, work in a steady carry rather than stacking in the hall, protect the walls, and let the other flats know we’ll be in and out for a couple of hours.
The flat is above a shop and the only door is on the street.
Common, and fine. We time the job for parking, run a short carry to the van, and keep the footpath clear. Tell us if there’s a loading bay or a back lane.
Do you take carpets and lino?
Yes — lifted and taken, including the underlay and the grippers if you want the floor bare for the landlord.
Can you clear a bedsit that’s been let for twenty years?
Yes. Long lets accumulate more than people expect, and bedsits can need two visits if the stairs are bad. We price it after photos and tell you honestly if it’s more than it looks.
How soon can you do a flat in Wexford?
Usually within the week; small jobs can be added to a Wexford run already scheduled.
Does Wexford County Council collect bulky items?
No. Wexford 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 Wexford from your base?
North Wexford is nearer us than you might think — Bunclody is 45 minutes from Athy, Enniscorthy and Gorey about an hour, New Ross a little more, and Wexford Town, Rosslare and the Hook about an hour and a half. We’re in Wexford every week, usually combining the north of the county with Carlow work.
