Do's

✅ General Household and Green Waste

We are happy to take almost anything that is non-hazardous and can be lifted by two people.

✅ Old furniture (lounges, wardrobes)
✅ white goods (fridges, washing machines, dryers)
✅ broken appliances, e-waste (computers, TVs, printers), clothes, books, and toys.
✅ garden waste, such as palm fronds, grass clippings, and tree prunings.
✅ home renovation waste (timber, carpet, curtains,and fencing)
✅ shed and garage equipment (tools, car parts).
✅ light construction waste like timber, scrap metal, and packaging materials.

You don't need to perfectly sort it, our team will handle the separation for recycling once we are back at the depot. If it’s general junk cluttering your home, we are the team for waste removal.

✅ Renovations and Hard Fill

We can take renovation debris, but weight is a factor. DO let us know in advance if you have heavy materials like sand, soil, rocks, concrete, bricks or tiles. We can definitely remove these, but they must be loaded safely to ensure our trucks remain within legal weight limits. Mixing these heavy items with lighter waste is often the best approach. If you have a very large pile of these items, give us a call first so we can send the appropriate vehicle and give you the most accurate quote for your rubbish removal.

✅ Specialised Items

We can take the following specialised items, however they need to be separated and identified to our team as additional disposal surcharges may apply. These include: mattresses, car tyres, batteries (especially lithium-ion). Please separate specialised items and let our driver know, so they can be handled separately. Following these simple rules, help us keep our rates low and our drivers safe.

Don'ts

❌ Hazardous Materials

For the safety of our staff and the community, there are strict laws regarding what we cannot transport.

❌ asbestos (fibro)
❌ liquid paints
❌ oils
❌ chemicals
❌ solvents
❌ pesticides
❌ gas bottles
❌ fire extinguishers

Please DON'T ask us to remove these items. If you have these items, we can advise you on the correct specialist disposal services in Cairns. We are a general waste removal service, not a bio-hazard specialist.

❌ medical waste
❌ sharps (needles)
❌ biological waste

Please DON'T ask us to remove these items. Keeping these items out of the general waste stream is vital for environmental protection and complying with waste management regulations.
