Grounds and maintenance

Rubbish Removal

Shed clear-outs, green waste and hard rubbish priced on volume, trailer or truck loads. We do a walk-through and quote the volume we will actually need, and if we underestimate that is on us, not on you on the invoice.

Scope

What this job includes.

  • Shed and garage clear-outs, green waste, hard rubbish, deceased-estate and pre-sale clean-ups.
  • Priced on volume after a walk-through, with any underestimate worn by us rather than added to the invoice.
  • Sorted as we load: cardboard, scrap metal, e-waste and organics to recycling, the rest to the tip, no extra charge.
  • Hazardous waste declined and referred: asbestos, paint, chemicals, oils and gas bottles go to a licensed specialist.
Our system: We sort as we load so the recyclable streams do not just go to landfill. It is not a moral thing, it is better and slightly cheaper than tipping everything as general waste.
How we quote it

A written quote, built line by line.

The surface, the method for it, the scope and the realistic life span, all named so you can compare it like with like.

The 7-line quote
  1. 1 The surface, named. Tile or Colorbond, render or weatherboard, concrete or aggregate. We write down what we are actually working on, because the method follows the surface.
  2. 2 The method for that surface. Soft-wash biocide, degreaser dwell-time, the right nozzle. The right pressure for the surface, not a one-size blast.
  3. 3 The scope, in writing. Exactly what is included and what is not. A clean, a repair pathway, or both, named so you can compare quotes like with like.
  4. 4 The realistic life span. How long the result actually holds on this coast, and the maintenance cycle that keeps it there. No lifetime numbers.
  5. 5 Open items and the cap. Anything we cannot see until we are up there, flagged before we start, with a cap on what a variation can add to the invoice.
If a quote doesn’t show these lines, you can’t compare it, and you don’t know what’s been cut.
How it runs

What happens, step by step.

1

Tell us about the job

Call, or send a few photos through the form. Enough for us to see the surface, the condition and the access.

2

Walk-around or a photo quote

For most jobs a walk-around or your photos is enough. We diagnose whether you need a clean, a repair pathway, or both, before we quote.

3

A written plan and price

A real number on a written quote with the scope named, the realistic life span, and any open items flagged. No from $ guesses.

4

The job, done to the surface

We turn up when we say, pick the method for each surface, contain the run-off, and leave the place tidy.

5

The walk-through

We walk you over the finished work, hand over any photos, and tell you the maintenance cycle that keeps the result there.

Insured, covered, guaranteed

The paperwork behind the price.

Public liability insured, certificate on request, and a workmanship guarantee in writing, with the realistic product life span named upfront, all in writing, all on request.

Public liability cover protects you if something goes wrong on site, and the Work Safe at Heights ticket means the roof work is done by people trained for it. For building-type work we name the QBCC or NSW Fair Trading licence that applies by state. The workmanship guarantee is in writing, with the realistic product life span named upfront rather than a lifetime promise.

The cover, the guarantee, and how to check each one.
Questions, answered

Rubbish Removal: common questions.

What can't you take?
Asbestos, paint, chemicals, oils, gas bottles, anything hazardous. If you have asbestos in a shed clear-out you need a licensed asbestos removalist, and we can recommend one. Fridges and freezers we will take as long as they are empty, food out then defrosted.
Does it all just go to landfill?
No, we sort as we load. Clean cardboard, scrap metal, e-waste and garden organics go to the appropriate recycling stream and mixed general waste goes to the tip. It is better and slightly cheaper than tipping everything as general waste, and there is no extra charge for the sorting.
