The Northern Beaches' own clearance crew

Rubbish removal on the Northern Beaches

One local crew for the whole backlog: the garage that hasn't fitted a car in years, the shed of half-finished projects, the under-house full of boards. One visit, one fixed figure, settled before a single thing is lifted.

One figure, named first

You'll know the all-in price before anything is lifted. Lifting, loading, sweeping and tip fees are inside it. No hourly surprises.

One visit, the whole load

Garage, shed, under-house, backyard. We bring the truck and the lot goes at once, not two cubic metres at a time.

One peninsula, one crew

Freshwater to Palm Beach, Frenchs Forest to Terrey Hills. Local enough to know which driveways want the smaller truck.

The honest comparison

The kerb queue, measured

The default reflex on the peninsula is the council booked cleanup, and for two tidy loads a year it's good value. It's also booked ahead, capped at three cubic metres, shared per building if you're in units, and it refuses whole categories of what's actually in your garage.

We built a small tool that tells you, item by item, what the kerb pickup takes, what it refuses, and roughly how big your pile really is. It will happily tell you the council is your best option when it is.

How it works

One figure, agreed before we lift a thing

  1. Tell us what's there

    Send the enquiry with a line on what's in the pile. Photos help. So does the list the Kerbside Forecast writes for you.

  2. We look, then we name the figure

    On site, or from your photos for straightforward loads, one all-in figure covers the lifting, the loading, the sweep and the tip fees. It doesn't move once it's agreed.

  3. Loaded, swept and gone

    The crew takes the lot in one visit and sorts the streams on the truck: green loads as green waste, e-waste to a licensed facility. Same-day where we can.

Where we work

The coast run and the ridge run

One crew covers the whole peninsula. If your suburb isn't listed, it's between two that are.

Fair questions

Before you ask

How can the price be fixed if there's no price list?

Because the figure is set per job, not per hour. Every load is different, so we look first (in person, or at your photos), then name one all-in figure: the lifting, the loading, the sweep and the tip fees. You say yes or no before anything moves. The number you agree to is the number you pay.

Can you really take the whole lot in one go?

That's the job we're built for. Truck-and-two for most loads, a bigger crew for the serious backlogs. The exceptions are the hazardous streams: asbestos, chemicals and gas bottles need licensed specialists, and we'll name one for you instead of pretending otherwise.

Do you take renovation debris?

Gladly. Building material is one of the council cleanup's outright refusals, which is why the pile behind the skip-bin quote tends to sit there. Plasterboard, tiles, old kitchens, timber: all standard loads for us.

What happens after I send the enquiry?

The phone goes the other way: we call you. Usually there's a question or two about access and what's sitting in the pile, then the figure and the day get settled. Same-day pickups happen where the run allows; we offer, we don't overpromise.

We're in a unit block. Is that your kind of job?

Yes. The Dee Why to Narrabeen strip is mostly units, and those buildings share two council collections a year between every apartment, so the kerb quota runs out fast. Stairs, lifts and loading docks are all part of the figure we name up front.

Don't wait for the kerb.

Tell us what's in the pile. We come and look, name one all-in figure before anything is lifted, and the whole lot goes in a single visit.
