Hard Rubbish Removal Melbourne: Same-Day Hard Waste Pickup

Old furniture, mattresses, whitegoods and renovation debris gone today. No waiting months for a council collection. We lift it from wherever it sits and leave the space clean.

Hard rubbish is the bulky household waste that won’t fit in your bin: lounges, bed frames, mattresses, fridges, washing machines, broken furniture, timber and renovation offcuts, and the pile of odds and ends that builds up in a garage or backyard. Junk Patrol clears it across metropolitan Melbourne, usually on the same or next day, so you don’t have to wait for a scheduled council pickup or haul anything to the tip yourself.

What counts as hard rubbish?

If it’s too big or heavy for your kerbside bin, we’ll take it. Common hard waste we remove includes:

Lounges, couches & sofas
Mattresses & bed frames
Fridges, washers & whitegoods
Tables, chairs & cabinets
Timber, doors & renovation debris
BBQs, bikes & outdoor furniture
Electronics & e-waste
Garden & green waste
General household junk

Why not just wait for council hard waste?

Council hard waste collections are useful, but they’re limited: most Melbourne councils cap you at one or two bookings a year, make you wait weeks for a date, set strict limits on what and how much they’ll take, and require everything stacked neatly on the nature strip by a set time. Businesses usually get nothing at all.

Junk Patrol works around your timeline, not the council’s. We come when it suits you, carry items out from inside the house, up or down stairs, from the backyard or a garage, and sort what we collect so reusable goods and recyclables are diverted from landfill wherever possible. You lift nothing and you’re not left with a pile on the footpath for a fortnight.

Hard rubbish removal FAQs

How quickly can you collect?
Most hard rubbish jobs are booked for the same or next day. Send us a photo and we’ll give you the earliest time we can get to you.
Do I have to move the items out first?
No. We carry everything out ourselves, including from inside the house, up or down stairs, or from the backyard, shed or garage. You don’t need to lift a thing.
What happens to what you take?
We sort what we collect so that reusable items and recyclables are diverted from landfill wherever possible, with the rest disposed of responsibly.
Do you remove hard rubbish for businesses and real estate agents?
Yes. We handle office clear-outs, end-of-lease and deceased estate clearances, and bulky waste for commercial sites and property managers, areas councils usually won’t service.
How is the price worked out?
By volume, the amount of space your items take on the truck. Send photos through our form or by text and we send back a firm price. The price we quote is the price you pay.
