OUR HISTORY
A Local Dorset Family Business Since 1967
West Country Cleaning & Waste is a long-established family-run business based in Bridport (DT6), proudly serving West Dorset and the surrounding counties since 1967.
Founded by Mike Wilcox and his family, the business has grown from a small local operation into a trusted name across Dorset, Devon and Somerset. For decades, we have supported homes, farms and businesses that rely on septic tanks and private drainage systems.
