Once you’re over the exercise trend, there’s an undeniable accumulation of fitness and gym equipment that’s completely hard to ignore. Treadmills, for instance, are the most common piece of fitness equipment in homes and gyms, and once you need to dispose of it, you’ll realise it’s not as easy as you might think.
Treadmills are heavy, bulky, and too complicated to even lift and move out the door. The extreme size of even the smallest model can be extremely difficult to move down flights of stairs, pass through tight hallways, and dispose of with your own vehicle.
What you need for efficient treatment removal and disposal is a trusted removalist like Aus Rubbish Removals. With our expert team, you don’t have to suffer from a back injury lifting a heavy and awkward treadmill. You don’t need to worry about scratching your floorboards or denting your drywall as well. Our team is fully insured, committed to doing all the heavy lifting, and ready to do the work on the same day.
The Logistical Nightmare of DIY Gym Equipment Removal
The best way to remove heavy gym equipment, such as a treadmill, is to hire a professional. Don’t try to lift and dispose of a treadmill by yourself!
Severe Weight & Size
Modern treadmills are incredibly heavy and difficult to grip and hold to haul away. If the treadmill is located upstairs or in the basement, you need to lift and move it without scratching your floors and walls, all the while breaking your back in the process.
Dismantling Hassles
Do you remember how your treadmill got there in the first place? It’s likely that you had it delivered and expertly assembled at home, so you don’t need to lift a finger. Now that you need to dismantle it, you need the right tools and the manpower to get each part out of the doorway.
Council Restrictions
Most Sydney residents are unaware of local council regulations when it comes to the disposal of heavy commercial gym equipment such as treadmills. These are often rejected by curbside collections because of their size and their electronic components, which are considered e-waste.
Eco-Friendly Disposal: More Than Just Scrap Metal
We don’t just dispose of heavy gym equipment in landfills, treating it as scrap metal. We practice ethical, green collections and disposal, so waste is diverted from landfills and from illegal dumping sites.
A treadmill is a complex piece of machinery, not just scrap metal. It may have a metal body, but it also contains electronic circuits such as a motherboard, LCD screen, wiring, and heavy-duty plastics, classifying it as e-waste.
Aus Rubbish Removals is a Carbon Neutral partner, adhering to strict NSW EPA guidelines on eco-friendly disposal of all kinds of waste, avoiding landfills at all costs, and protecting the environment.
Our team will carefully dismantle and sort all materials, ensuring all electronic components are taken to certified e-waste recycling centres, and keeping all toxic materials out of landfills.
