Dead lawn mowers are bulky, heavy, and dangerous to keep in sheds and garages. From rust to leaking oil, this equipment becomes a safety risk, eating up valuable shed space.
But disposing of a heavy lawnmower takes more than just dumping it in a bin or dragging it to the kerbside for council pickups. You need the help of an experienced removalist to ensure all recyclable metal parts and components are saved and properly recycled.

We Remove All Types of Lawn Mowers (Big and Small)
Aus Rubbish Removals can dispose of all types of lawn mowers, from ride-on models to push mowers, big or small.
Heavy Ride-On & Tractor Mowers
Sydney homes with large yards and open spaces use heavy ride-on or tractor mowers to keep their properties tidy. But once these break and rust, they are too heavy and bulky to remove. Our team can handle the safe winching and extraction of these massive mowers, taking them to specialised recycling facilities.
Zero-Turn Commercial Mowers
Landscaping contractors and homeowners of large estates use zero-turn mowers, huge equipment that is not just bulky but extremely heavy and wide. We can help haul these commercial mowers for you, ensuring all rust and engine oil spills are carefully removed once we have the mower from your property.
Commercial Walk-Behind Slashers
Heavy-duty field mowers and commercial walk-behind slashers are heavy and complicated to haul and dispose of. We can haul the entire broken or rusted mower, removing all the rust and leaking oil, ensuring everything is collected and placed into our trucks.
Cast-Iron Cylinder Mowers
Old-style cast-iron cylinder mowers or reel mowers are often used to mow premium turf. When these break, they can be very heavy and difficult to lift. We can remove these extremely heavy mowers for you, taking recyclable materials such as cast-iron and steel to specialised recycling facilities.
Standard Petrol Push Mowers
Most standard-sized homes have the most common petrol push mowers. We can handle rusted, seized, or standard 4-stroke mowers, removing them from your garage or shed, freeing up critical space.
Electric & Battery-Powered Mowers
We take care of the eco-friendly disposal of electric and battery-powered mowers for safe e-waste recycling of lithium-ion batteries and robotic components. Although lighter than other types, these mowers need specialised recycling to ensure e-waste is never dumped in landfills.
Solving Sydney’s Unique Machinery Removal Challenges
Lawn mowers and other machinery are hard to dispose of. You can’t dump them in a bin or simply leave them out in the kerb, and difficult access and safety risks add to the challenge.
Navigating Steep Blocks & Narrow Side Gates
Sydney’s neighbourhoods are known for their irregular terrain. There are hills along the Northern Beaches or Eastern Suburbs with steep driveways and homes with tight side access. Dragging a broken lawnmower through these critical areas can be a nightmare. Our team is experienced in making difficult extractions, using heavy-duty ramps and expert maneuvering to ensure no damage to your fences and walls.
The Heavy Lifting Injury Risk
Large mowers such as zero-turn models and cast-iron tractors are notoriously heavy and very awkward to lift, especially when their wheels are seized. Loading this into a box trailer can lead to severe injuries. Our team is fully insured and will utilise lifting equipment and winches to safely and efficiently remove the machinery.
Hazardous Fluids & Environmental Compliance
Old mowers come with toxic metal boxes with stale fuel, old oil, and leaking battery acid. We will handle these materials safely and ensure they are taken to the right Sydney recycling facilities. Doing so helps prevent dangerous leaks from reaching soil, driveways, and waterways.
Cluttered Sheds & Overgrown Backyards
Most broken mowers are left in inaccessible places, usually buried under timber or boxes, at the back of a cluttered shed, or in the middle of an overgrown yard. Our full-service removal includes navigating through the clutter and dirt, clearing the path for the extraction, and removing the mower from where they sit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to drain the petrol and oil before you collect the mower?
It is definitely helpful to do so, but it is not mandatory. We can handle and transport petrol mowers safely. Just let us know if it is full of fuel so we can prepare beforehand.
My ride-on mower has flat tyres, and the engine is seized. Can you still move it?
Yes, we can. We handle seized and immovable machinery with our heavy-duty trolleys, ramps, and winches to drag and load these into our trucks.
Will you take the old lithium-ion battery from my electric mower?
Absolutely. Lithium-ion batteries are fire hazards if left in standard bins. We can safely collect battery-powered mowers and ensure their batteries are taken to specialised e-waste recycling centres in Sydney.
Can you remove other garden equipment like line trimmers and chainsaws at the same time?
Yes, we can. If you’re doing a full shed cleanout, we can take your broken whipper snippers, chainsaws, leaf blowers, and any other green waste or junk at the same time. We will factor it all into one upfront quote.
How much does it cost to remove a ride-on mower in Sydney?
Pricing depends heavily on the size of the mower (a standard push mower vs. a 400kg zero-turn tractor) and the ease of access. Contact us for a fast, free, and accurate upfront quote with no hidden disposal fees.
