We provide lead & paint removal services at Paul's Rubbish Removal in Sydney!
What we take, and what needs a specialist
Old doors, window frames, weatherboards and furniture often carry old paint, and in a house built before 1970 that paint may contain lead. We remove the items and general debris from a reno or clear-out. We don't test for lead and we don't strip or handle confirmed lead-contaminated dust, chips or soil, that's licensed work for a specialist.

What we take, and what needs a specialist
Lead was used in house paint until it was phased out, and homes built before 1970 are the ones most likely to have it. If you're not sure whether paint on an item is lead-based, a commercially available test kit will tell you, and if you can't test it, treat it as if it is.
What we take: old painted doors, window frames, weatherboards, fencing, furniture and general renovation or demolition debris, in one piece, as part of a normal clearance or rubbish removal job.
What we don't do: we're not a lead-paint testing or abatement service. We don't strip paint, and we don't knowingly handle loose lead-contaminated dust, chips or soil, disturbed lead paint is a job for a licensed specialist, not a general rubbish crew.
If you're not sure
Homes built before 1970 are the ones most likely to carry lead-based paint. A commercially available lead test kit from a hardware store will tell you either way, and if you can't test it, the safest approach is to treat it as if it does. That's a decision for you or your renovator to make before the paint is disturbed, not something we do on site.
Don't dump old painted debris yourself
Illegal dumping carries real fines, and that's true of general renovation debris as much as anything else. If what you've got is old painted items and general debris, not loose contaminated material, we'll take it and it goes to a licensed facility. If you're not sure which side of that line your job falls on, tell us what you've got and we'll say so plainly, including if it means pointing you to someone else.
Old painted item and debris removal across Sydney
We remove old painted doors, frames, furniture and general renovation debris across the Sydney metro area, including the Eastern Suburbs, the Inner West, the Hills District and the Blue Mountains.
Booked before 10am, we can often collect the same day. If your job is a full demolition or renovation clear-out, demolition waste removal may be a better fit.
