Carry Forward, clearance and rubbish removal

Rubbish removal in Lane Cove

Units at the village end, houses on the streets behind. In Lane Cove we clear both: unit pickups and end-of-lease loads out of the apartment blocks, and garage, shed and downsizing clearances from the houses. Every building runs to its own rules, and we book around them rather than turning up and hoping.

Walk-ups, low-rise and basement ramps: the apartment half of our patch.

What we clear here

  • Unit pickups and end-of-lease loads. One flat at a time, cleared to the dock or the kerb depending on what the building allows, in the window the building gives us.
  • Downsizing clearances. The move into a smaller flat, or out of one. When a household compresses to a floorplate, that is our lead job.
  • Garage and shed clear-outs. From the house streets: tools kept, timber sorted, paint tins set aside for the proper stream, the rest gone in a load.
  • Renovation clear-outs. Old kitchens, bathrooms and floor coverings out of units being brought up to date, cleared between trades.
  • Single items and small loads. One lounge, one mattress, one fridge, carried down rather than dragged out.

The kerb here answers to a different council

Lane Cove Council runs its own free bulky-waste scheme, and its limits and booking rules are not Willoughby's. If your load is small and it can wait, that free service is often the cheaper answer, and we will say so rather than quote you for something the council will take. Check the current limits with the council before you book, because they do change.

Where we earn our keep is everything the kerb cannot do: loads past the cap, a date the schedule cannot give you, items that have to come down from an upper floor rather than out to a nature strip, and buildings where nothing is allowed to sit on the street at all. Our council clean-up guide covers the Willoughby scheme in detail, not Lane Cove's.

The building is half the job

Before a Lane Cove unit job starts we sort the parts that go wrong at the last minute: the dock or driveway window, the lift booking, whether the building manager wants protection down, and where the truck can legally stand on a narrow street. The truck carries trolleys, lift blankets and floor protection as standard.

The price is fixed on sight and agreed before we lift a thing, and it covers the lifting, the loading, the sweep-up and the disposal. If you would like to know what is going before we arrive, our sorter walks a room in a few minutes.
