Rubbish removal companies offer bins for office or residential waste. These bins come in a wide range of sizes, from large to small. Normally, you can choose to load the bin yourself, or the rubbish management professionals can load the rubbish and then take it away. This service may vary from one service provider to the next but usually includes the following:
Accepted rubbish
The kind of rubbish these companies might remove includes furniture, timber, renovation materials, garden waste, metal (like copper, iron, steel, etc.), cardboard, excavation materials, soil, bricks, roofing and concrete. Other additional materials may also be removed, so do not hesitate to talk to your service provider for more details.
Rubbish not accepted
Rubbish service providers don't accept all types of waste; you may need to hire a specialist to get rid of certain kinds of materials. These include tyres, flammable items, fibreglass insulation, liquid paints, asbestos, food and other kinds of liquids.
How much will you pay for the service?
Before you hire a rubbish removals company, make sure you get an estimate on the amount you'll pay for the service. It's not always easy to get the exact quote since the cost depends on the kind and quantity of rubbish that's being collected, among other factors. Here are factors that will determine the price you'll pay.
The quantity of waste – In most cases, waste is measured by volume, but some heavy items like construction debris are charged by weight. The total removal cost will also be determined by the number of trucks required to transport all your junk.
Type of waste – Many rubbish removal businesses only handle common household trash such as plastic and paper. Bulky items such as construction items and large items like old furniture are usually charged at a high rate. Household chemicals and paint are considered to be hazardous waste, and most rubbish removal companies don't accept them.
Labour expenses – The quantity of time it will take for the rubbish removalists to haul your waste into the truck adds to the amount you'll pay. If the job takes over an hour, you could be charged for the additional labour expenses.
Location – Accessibility to your home or office is another factor that may affect the cost. The farther the location or the harder it is to get to you, the higher the amount you will pay.
