E-waste
Responsible e-waste collection is extremely important for a number of reasons. Electronic waste is one of the most volatile materials commonly found in landfill. Electronics contain harmful chemical and metal that when dumped in landfill can wreak havoc on the environment. Some of the harmful substances found in electronic devices includes lead, mercury, cadium, hexavaliant chromium, arsenic and different fire retardants, which eventually end up in bodies of water, groundwater, soil, and the air.
It is very important that you remove this waste responsibly – meaning not in your weekly council rubbish collection or at the tip. We have access to all e-waste recycling facilities in Sydney and work with them regularly disposing of e-waste from our loyal customers.
Green Waste
Green waste (also known as garden waste, organic waste or yard waste) is an organic compound, meaning that when it is dumped it starts to breakdown. The process is called anaerobic decomposition. Anaerobic decomposition creates methane which is a potent greenhouse gas and can be extremely detrimental to the environment. Luckily, all of this waste is recyclable!
Sydney is a leafy city and most households will have at least a small amount of green waste to deal with. For those with larger houses with gardens this can quickly become overwhelming. In this case getting in a garden waste removal service is an excellent option. No job is too small for us, and we have access to every green waste recycling facility in the city.
Paper & Cardboard
Paper and cardboard are amongst some of the most recycled materials on the planet, which is an excellent thing to hear. Between home and office recycling in Australia, roughly half of paper and cardboard waste products are disposed of sustainably but this number can always be higher! All paper and cardboard products can be recycled, but it is your responsibility to do so – or your responsibility to give an eco-friendly rubbish removal service like Sydney Rubbish Services a call.
If your home has stacks of old newspapers or documents that need to be disposed of, we can take care of it for you. If your business is constantly producing paper or cardboard waste and you aren’t quite sure how to manage it properly, we can help!
Office Rubbish Removal
Offices in Sydney are one of the highest producers of recyclable waste in the city. Huge amounts of e-waste, paper and cardboard, steel and aluminium cans and food organics are produced in CBDs around the city everyday. It is very important to dispose of this waste responsibly!
Without a dedicated rubbish removal service it can be very difficult for businesses to find the time to manage their waste efficiently. Getting in touch with a rubbish removal Service is an excellent option. We have over 10 years of expertise under our belts working with business all around Sydney.
Steel & Aluminium Cans
Steel and aluminium cans make up a massive percentage of recycled materials in Sydney, however, massive amounts of these products still make their way into landfill every day. In 2010, just over 30% of steel cans, and 67% of aluminium cans were recycled in Australia. These figures are always climbing higher and it is your responsibility to make sure they continue to do so.
There is no excuse for the average Australian not to recycle 100% of the steel and aluminium waste they produce. The easiest way to do this is by getting in touch with an eco-friendly rubbish removal service like us! We will take care of all of your steel and aluminium can waste, no problem!
Scrap Metal
Steel and aluminium cans aren’t the only types of waste that needs to be disposed on responsibly. Scrap metal recycling is very important to ensure we preserve out precious natural resources. Most metal types are entirely recyclable. This includes materials like steel, copper and brass, which are common in households, as well as lead and cobalt, which are products you will find in e-waste.
