General FAQs
Dumping household rubbish in landfill should only be used when rubbish cannot be recycled. As a lot of household rubbish can be recycled, we do not recommend this as a sustainable method of disposal and instead encourage you to seek a professional that can sort through the material properly.
The best option is to contact a rubbish removal specialist. That way, you can sustainably dispose of household rubbish in a hassle free manner, any time you prefer. Another option, council collection, is often only available once a year. The final option, hiring a skip bin yourself, is difficult as doing it yourself is often strenuous and disposal options are hazardous to the environment.
We dispose of all the waste as ethically and safely as possible. Our company practice has the environmental effects of the waste at the forefront of our processes. All rubbish and waste that can be recycled, is sorted and directed to the nominated facilities accordingly.
E-Waste is banned in Victoria’s landfills since 2019. As such, we highly recommend hiring a rubbish removal specialist that can take your waste to an e-waste recycling centre.

Building Rubbish Removal FAQs
The most common waste used in construction includes wood, plasterboard, bricks, metal, concrete, plastic, cardboard and glass. Getting rid of construction waste without a professional often results in waste not being properly disposed of, and the heavy lifting can be strenuous to your health.
Construction waste leads to a pile of solid waste that cannot properly decompose. This can lead to air toxicity and pollution. It can also lead to soil pollution and it can produce hazardous waste. As such, piles of construction waste can cause environmental pollution and be harmful to human health. Proper waste disposal is the only answer.
Around 20 million tonnes of construction waste goes to landfill in Australia every year. Go Easy Rubbish Removal can separate and dispose of the construction waste properly, except for hazardous waste such as asbestos.
Construction waste is sorted and brought to the waste depot, with recyclable materials such as plastics, papers and tires going to the recycling centre. Anything that cannot be recycled is then dropped to the waste depot.

Commercial Rubbish Collection FAQs
This is a broad term and classed as any waste that is not domestically produced. This can be waste generated due to carrying out a business (such as shops or wholesalers), or waste produced by customers. Commercial rubbish removal is treated differently to domestic rubbish due to various legislative reasons and the quantity of waste.
Many waste collectors do not accept commercial waste. That is why it is important to contact a professional commercial rubbish removal company like Go Easy to collect, sort and transport your waste to a nominated facility appropriately.
There are commercial waste disposal sites, including recycling centres, that we use for your commercial waste.
Yes we do. We also have a 10% discount on bookings made 48 hours or more in advance for a limited time.
Ethical Organic Waste Recycling FAQs
Food waste is waste that is edible and for human consumption, but gets thrown away instead. For large quantities of food, waste that is left in the bins can decompose and become a breeding ground for flies, maggots and other insects. As such, a professional waste removalist can dispose of food waste in an environmentally friendly and clean manner, ensuring that the food is recycled properly.
More than 2.5 million tonnes of food gets wasted every year by Australians. Food waste in landfill can produce greenhouse gases, which can contribute to global warming and become harmful to the general public. Not only this, wasted food means that we are contributing to the waste of resources, as any food in landfill is simply discarded.
You can reduce/ prevent food waste by:
- Consistently checking that you are reusing the food in the fridge/ pantry.
- Storing food properly and reheating the leftovers.
- Purchasing ‘imperfect’ or ‘ugly’ food products that often get overlooked.
However, if the food must be thrown out, food waste can be recycled and turned into compost, so a professional waste removal company can help to recycle the food and reduce food waste.
You should not bring food waste to the tip, as any waste in landfill will simply be destroyed. We instead recommend taking the waste to an organics facility or recycling centre to turn the food waste into compost so that it can be repurposed into biodegradable compost, rather than hazardous methane and other greenhouse gases. This should therefore be left to rubbish removal professionals.
