FAQ

Before you request a quote.

Can't see your question? Call 0400 297 268 or send photos and we'll answer it directly.

What counts as general waste versus household junk?

General waste covers everyday rubbish and mixed clutter. Household junk tends to mean bulkier items like furniture and appliances. Pricing works the same way for both, so if you're unsure just send a photo and we'll confirm.

How much does it cost to remove a small load?

Small loads are quoted on volume, access and disposal, the same as any job. There is a minimum charge because the truck, the crew and the tip fee apply whether the load is half full or full. Photos get you the exact figure upfront.

Do I need to move everything outside?

No. Our team handles the lifting and carrying. Just tell us about stairs, narrow side access or parking when you book so we can plan the job and quote it accurately.

How is the quote calculated?

Pricing comes down to volume, item type and access. Behind every quote is labour, loading time, the truck, staff, and the disposal fee we pay at the transfer station, plus GST. Photos let us size the load properly, so the price you are given upfront is the price you pay.

Where does my rubbish actually go?

Everything comes back to our yard and gets sorted. Metal, timber and e-waste go to recyclers. Usable furniture and goods are set aside for reuse or donation where practical. What is left goes to appropriate disposal facilities. We will not promise that a specific item gets donated, because the condition on the day decides it.

Ready to clear the clutter?

Start with photos or a few details. We'll take it from there.
