From narrow suburban streets to strict local council dumping regulations, we take all types of rubbish so you can reclaim your space and enjoy your newly renovated home.
Common Sydney DIY Projects & The Waste They Generate
Different types of renovations generate different kinds of waste. Let’s look at the most common renovation projects and the rubbish they produce.
The Kitchen Strip-Out
Kitchen renovations produce mountains of waste from old MDF, splashback and floor tiles, laminate or stone benchtops, and torn linoleum. Not to mention heavy white goods, the older the model (such as refrigerators, ovens, dishwashers), the heavier and bulkier these appliances tend to be. And of course, kitchen lighting, wiring, and various mixed wastes can easily pile up and cause a massive mess.
Bathroom Upgrades
Even a small toilet or powder room can generate mountains of heavy and messy waste, what more if you’re renovating a master bathroom? From smashed ceramic tiles, old porcelain toilets, sinks, and vanities, shattered shower screens, rusted tapware, and waterproof sheeting, this type of waste is too heavy to load into a bin and very difficult to take to the tip on your own.
Backyard Decking & Landscaping
Outdoor DIY waste from a renovation can quickly pile up in your front lawn or backyard. From old fencing, concrete rubble and bricks, treated pine or hardwood offcuts, and rusted iron, to green waste such as fallen trees, branches, grass, and soil, these require quick and expert removal before they become a safety hazard.
Cosmetic Bedroom & Living Room Updates
Even a small DIY cosmetic bedroom project or a living room update can generate waste that can quickly become out of control. From dusty old carpets, heavy carpet underlay, old blinds, skirting boards, old curtains, lighting waste, and empty paint tins, you need a removalist who can quickly clear the rubbish so you can reclaim your room on the same day.
The Hidden Culprits: Types of Renovation Waste We Take
We take care of your DIY renovation waste. See the list of the types of rubbish we take:
Gyprock & Plasterboard
Old ceilings and interior walls are made of Gyprock or plasterboard, demolition and construction materials that can be very difficult to fit in a standard skip bin. These materials are also messy to transport and require a specialised facility for appropriate recycling or removal.
Timber & Wood Offcuts
Renovation projects generate piles of treated and untreated timber, wood offcuts, MDF, and plywood. We take timber from cabinets, old furniture, decorative panels, floorboards, and fencing, sort and transport them to specialised recycling centres.
Masonry & Rubble
A large portion of interior and exterior renovation waste comes from bricks, concrete chunks, and roof tiles. We collect all this bulky waste and take it to recycling centres, where it is repurposed to make new construction materials.
Metals & Wiring
Major renovations often yield massive amounts of scrap metal and wiring from electrical connections and lighting fixtures. We haul away old copper pipes, aluminium window frames, and various electrical offcuts and take them to proper recycling centres where they will be sorted and melted to make new materials and products.
Fixtures & Fittings
We take large and bulky home fixtures such as bathtubs, sinks, doors, and old cabinetry. Intact items may be repurposed or reused, while broken ones are taken to recycling plants for proper recycling.
Skip Bins vs. Hands-On Rubbish Removal
You might think that hiring a skip bin will solve all your renovation rubbish problems, but think again. Let’s compare a skip bin hire with hands-on services from Aus Rubbish Removals.
No Heavy Lifting
With a skip bin, you do all the heavy lifting. Imagine manually lifting bricks, timber, tiles, and other materials. You’ll surely end up with a broken back! With hands-on rubbish removal, you point, we haul. We do all the heavy lifting for you.
No Council Permits
Most Sydney suburbs, such as the Inner West and Eastern Suburbs, require permits to place a skip bin on the street. This is expensive and often leads to disputes among neighbours. On the other hand, our services will pick up your renovation rubbish in one day, no permits, no troubles.
You Only Pay for What We Take
Skip bins charge a flat rate, even if your rubbish only fills half of it. Our services are based on volume, so you save a lot of money in the long run.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to sort my renovation waste before you arrive?
There’s no need. Our team handles everything, from sorting to the heavy lifting. All you have to do is point to the pile, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Will you handle hazardous renovation waste, such as asbestos?
No. For the safety of our team and the community, we do not handle asbestos, other hazardous chemicals, or wet paint. Asbestos must be removed by licensed specialists in NSW.
Is your service cheaper than hiring a skip bin in Sydney?
In most cases, yes. When you consider council permit fees, skip bin flat-rate fees, and hauling the rubbish yourself, our volume-based service is cost-effective and hassle-free.
Can you take old white goods and kitchen appliances?
Yes. We offer old white goods disposal left from renovations, such as old refrigerators, ovens, dishwashers, and washing machines.
