Rubbish Removal Glebe

Book before midday and we can collect the same day. Call 0407 125 125 for a free quote and we'll arrange a time that suits you.

No. There's no load limit of any kind. We take any size job, and if it needs more than one truck or more than one trip, we arrange it.

Household rubbish, furniture, mattresses, white goods and fridges, electronics and e-waste, garden waste, timber, scrap metal, and construction, renovation and demolition waste. Mattresses go in the same trip with no limit and no extra charge.

Our team will come inside to remove your rubbish, so you don't need to lift a finger. We handle the heavy lifting, from appliances to general junk.

Pricing depends on how much rubbish there is and what it is, so every job is quoted individually. Call 0407 125 125 for a free quote.

Everything we collect goes to council processing facilities that recycle. Paul's Rubbish Removal also supports Clean Up Australia and the Australian Organics Recycling Association.

Yes. Paul's Rubbish Removal is fully insured, has been clearing rubbish across Sydney for over 15 years, and backs every job with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

Yes. Share houses are common here: 8.8% of Glebe households were group households at the 2021 Census, more than twice the NSW rate of 3.8%. When the lease ends, the things nobody claims tend to stay behind, like the communal couch, desks, a spare mattress or two and a laundry full of odds and ends. Once whoever owns it has said it can go, Paul's team takes it in one load, so the last person out isn't left sorting it.

Through the council. The City of Sydney's doorstep recycling service is free, runs weekly and collects from your door or your apartment lobby, with a minimum of two bags. It takes things like batteries, worn-out clothes and small electronics under 10 kg. For anything bulkier, book Paul.

No, and putting it out can cost you. The City of Sydney's list of what can't be collected includes bricks, plasterboard, doors, floor tiles, timber, bathtubs, kitchen cupboards and sinks, and it says anything on that list won't be picked up and may result in a fine. It also asks residents not to book a bulky pick-up at all for items from a home renovation. Restoring a terrace produces plenty of it, and Paul takes the lot, bricks and old plasterboard included.

No. Properties that pay business rates don't get council waste and recycling services, and the bulky pick-up excludes commercial and business waste. The City says owners need to manage their own waste, and a tenant should speak to the landlord or agent. Paul takes old fittings, furniture and stock.

No. Paints, oils, gas bottles, fluorescent lights and other household chemicals are on the council's not-collected list, and the City says never to put them in your household bins. We handle hazardous waste, so Paul can take the tins. On their own, they can go to a Household Chemical CleanOut, a free NSW Government program that takes household quantities only: up to 20 litres or 20 kg per container, or 100 litres of paint in 20-litre tins.

Not without a booking. The City of Sydney says dumping unwanted material on the footpath is an offence, and items put out too early, or without a booked collection, count as illegal dumping. Booked things go out the night before collection day and no earlier. If you can't wait for a booking, Paul can collect it instead.

There are a few options. The City of Sydney points residents to free collections by The Bower or Pyrmont Cares for good-quality furniture, and its doorstep service takes up to three small items in great condition, such as a bedside table or an armchair. Glebe's Saturday market at Glebe Public School sells second-hand goods, so a stall is another way to move things on. Paul sometimes passes good furniture on to charity too, decided case by case on what's there and the state it's in. He can take the rest.

The council's advice is to book a pick-up before moving day. You can book every week, so things can go as you pack. If the next pick-up still doesn't line up, it says to take your things with you and book them from your new home. Or book Paul for the day you hand back the keys, and everything goes at once.

You can order a free green lid bin from the City of Sydney, collected every second week, for clippings, leaves and small prunings. Anything extra goes in a bulky pick-up only if it's bundled and tied, with branches no longer than one metre or thicker than 10 cm, and loose piles aren't collected. If it won't fit the bin or the bundles, Paul can take it.

Yes. Glebe has a lot of small homes. 28.3% of them had one bedroom or none in 2021, against 7.3% across NSW. A single armchair or a bed and a bookshelf from a top-floor studio is booked and quoted the same way as a bigger job. Mention it if the flat's a walk-up.
