So you’ve got a lot of rubbish to get rid of, but you don’t know where to start? You’ve got a couple of options, but here are some tips on finding the right solution.

First of all, work out if it’s something you can do yourself. In which case, think about skip hire. While it can be handy having a skip out the front of your house for rubbish removal, it can be hard work, and not everything you’re throwing in may be able to go to the same waste disposal centre. Separate green waste from furniture and timber, as well as old appliances such as TVs and refrigerators. It’s illegal to leave these out on the nature strip in the hope someone will come along and recycle them, unless it’s a specified hard rubbish collection day.

The easier option is to engage the services of a rubbish removal company. They are experienced in the art of waste collection, and can give you a quote, and collect everything in one go. They will do all the hard work, and they will take all of your non-hazardous refuse and either recycle it, donate usable items to charity, or dispose of it as cleanly and environmentally as possible.
