Rubbish Removal
Northern Beaches

The cost of rubbish removal varies depending on the type and amount of rubbish, as well as your location. Contact us for a personalised quote tailored to your needs. We offer competitive pricing and a free, no-obligation quote for all services.

Yes, we collect construction or demolition waste in the Northern Beaches area, including materials like timber, bricks, concrete, plastic, scrap metal, and chemicals. Our service caters to all types of projects, large or small.

Yes. Paul works 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so Paul's team can load early in the morning or late at night, whenever suits you. Book before midday if you need same-day collection.

Northern Beaches Council does take mattresses and bed bases, but only in a booked bulky goods collection, and a mainland house gets two of those in 12 months. Paul's Rubbish removes mattresses from anywhere on the Northern Beaches with no limit per job and no extra charge. Book before midday for same-day collection, or call 0407 125 125 to arrange a time that suits you.

Our loads go to council processing facilities that recycle. If furniture or household goods are still in good condition, ask about donating them, which we can do case by case.

To get a no-obligation, free rubbish removal quote, call Paul on 0407 125 125. Paul can help with anything from garden waste at home to larger commercial jobs.

We accept card, cash and bank transfer. The quote is free and upfront, and what you're quoted is what you pay.

Book it with Northern Beaches Council first. You'll get a booking number, and items can only go on the nature strip the night before your collection date. Mainland households that pay the domestic waste charge get two bookings in 12 months, counted from the date of the first one. The allowance stays with the property, not with you, so if the last owner or tenant used both, you wait for the anniversary. And there are no collections at all in the last week of December. If it can't wait, book Paul before midday for same-day collection.

More than most people expect. Anything longer than 1.8 metres is out, and so is anything too heavy for two people to move safely (the limit is 40kg, except for whitegoods). Pianos aren't accepted because of their weight and size. Nor are oil heaters, petrol lawn mowers (even drained ones), hazardous waste like gas bottles and paint, vegetation, or anything smaller than a toaster. Whatever the collectors leave behind has to come off the kerb straight away. Paul's team takes the lot in one visit, pianos included.

Kimbriki, on Kimbriki Road at Ingleside and Terrey Hills, which is owned by Northern Beaches Council (96%) and Mosman Council (4%). It's open for tipping from 7am to 5pm every day except Christmas Day and Good Friday. Some things with built-in batteries, like cordless vacuums and hoverboards, can go there free. No trailer to dispose of it yourself, or a job that would take more than one run? Paul's team can take it away instead.

June 2027, at the Mona Vale Beach car park on Surfview Road. It's a free NSW Government program to dispose of household chemicals that shouldn't go in your bin, and it takes up to 100 litres of paint in containers no bigger than 20 litres. That's a long wait if you're clearing out a garage now. We handle hazardous waste, so call Paul and talk through what you've got.

No. Northern Beaches Council says adding to someone else's collection pile is illegal and can bring a hefty fine and a criminal record. Putting things on the kerb without a booking of your own can be treated as illegal dumping too. Moving out with a pile of leftovers and no booking left? Call Paul instead. Book before midday and Paul can usually take it the same day.

Yes. Northern Beaches Council warns of longer waits over the summer holidays because of demand, and the service doesn't run in the last week of December. Awkward if you're moving over Christmas. Paul works 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and if you book before midday Paul can usually collect the same day.

Most of it is crushed and sent to landfill, according to Northern Beaches Council, which asks residents to use the collection as a last resort. Council staff do pull some recyclable material out of piles before the truck arrives, but only where they have the capacity. With Paul, loads go to council processing facilities that recycle. Furniture that's still in good shape can sometimes be donated, case by case.

Yes, as long as the doors are off and it sits in a separate pile with any other metal so it can be recycled. Anything with a battery that can't be taken out won't be collected. Getting a fridge out of your home and onto the nature strip is the hard part, and that's the bit Paul's team does for you. Fridges, washing machines and dishwashers come out in the same visit as everything else.

No. Vegetation is on the council's not-accepted list for bulky goods, so it goes in your vegetation bin, which is emptied fortnightly. After a big prune or a storm clean-up, that's a lot of fortnights. Paul's team takes garden waste in any amount, from a few bags of cuttings to a whole yard.

It depends on your address. Northern Beaches Council empties garbage bins every week, recycling weekly or every second week, and vegetation fortnightly, and its online waste calendar shows your days once you type in your address. Bins go out the night before, and the truck can come any time between 6am and 6pm. For Northern Beaches rubbish that won't fit in a bin, call Paul for a free quote.
