Other alternatives to getting rid of large bulky household junk that is more environmentally friendly. Taking your unwanted goods to the nearest recycling centre for them to repurpose is one of the best ways to dispose of your junk. If they are still in relatively good condition, then why not try donating it or getting it reconditioned before giving them to charity to be reused by those in need.

Most local councils in Sydney, such as Waverley Council will dispose of your household rubbish by dumping it at a rubbish dump, otherwise known as a landfill. Because of this, the council cannot pick up dangerous goods that would risk contaminate the whole landfill. Therefore, before booking a council kerbside collection, you should consider eco-friendly alternatives of disposing of your waste.
