Rubbish Removal in Melbourne: common questions

How is the price worked out?

Usually by volume in the truck plus labour and tip fees. Heavy materials like soil and concrete are often priced by weight.

Do they do the lifting?

Truck-and-crew services do. A skip bin is cheaper but you load it yourself.

What can't go in a skip?

Asbestos, chemicals, batteries, gas bottles and liquids are typically excluded. Ask the supplier for their list.
