You may be considering hiring professionals for your yard clean up and rubbish removal for many reasons. You might be vacating a rental property, selling your house, or you simply want to give your home a new lease on life. Using a garden waste expert and rubbish removal service makes the process so much easier.
In this guide, we’ll explain how to plan for your household waste removal the stress-free way, and also give you some tips for getting the garden in order. You’ve got enough to think about if you’re moving house, so here’s how to do it the easy way.
The benefits of combined yard clean up and rubbish removal
If you’re moving house, you’ve probably got 100 different tasks on your mind and not enough time to do them. The major benefit of tidying your yard and house up at the same time is that it’s stress-free. Hiring a professional team to get rid of all your junk and garden waste means you don’t have to worry about anything. They’ll do the heavy lifting, and you can concentrate on other things.
Saving money is another big benefit. If you were to hire a truck or make multiple trips to the tip, your costs would skyrocket very quickly. Household rubbish removal experts sort your items for recycling and reuse where possible, keeping disposal fees low.
This method also saves time. You might need to do some pre-work, but clearing the yard and house of rubbish at the same time means you don’t have to organise two different services. Now, let’s explore some tips for making your cleanup easy.
Household rubbish tips
Want to get rid of clutter in your house the easy way? Here are some tips for stress-free household rubbish removal.
Remove junk room by room
The best way to clear your house of clutter is to work room by room. This is even easier if you can set up a junk pile somewhere, perhaps in an empty room or the garage. As you go through each room, take any unwanted items and add them to your junk pile. This way, getting rid of the junk from one place will be easy. Plus, as an added bonus, it de-clutters each room so you can thoroughly clean each.
Use free disposal services
There are plenty of free options for getting rid of household waste. You likely won’t be able to get rid of everything, but here are a few options.
- Second-hand stores
- Charity stores
- Council hard-waste collection
- Giveaways or sales (list items as pickup only)
There will be restrictions with most of these, such as council hard waste collections only being available on certain dates in some councils. Charity and second-hand stores sometimes collect, but only if they think the item is of value. Regardless, it’s worth exploring all of these options to see what you can get rid of for free.
Make items smaller
This can be a little risky because breaking large items down into smaller parts might mean they can’t be reused or recycled. However, by making items smaller, you may reduce your collection fees. Most rubbish removal services charge by cubic metre, so the fewer large items you have, the better things will fit in the truck.
Garden waste removal tips
Now that the inside is sorted, it’s time to take to the gardens. Garden waste doesn’t just include green waste. It can include a whole lot of other junk that our yards accumulate over time. Realistically, you can use the same tips above in the yard as well because the more you can get rid of for free, the cheaper your yard cleanup is going to be. Here are some garden rubbish removal tips to consider when cleaning up your yard, especially before leaving a rental or selling a house.
Fill holes
If you’ve got pets or, for some other reason, the lawns have become damaged with holes, it’s best to fill them early. You’ll need time to regrow some lawn, so start filling holes and laying lawn seed as soon as practicable.
Start tidying early
If you’ve got some time up your sleeves, working on the yard gradually is your best option. If your council provides green waste collection bins, you can fill these with the appropriate materials for weeks prior to your move. Why not take advantage of free green waste removal?
