										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you moving to a new house or office? Or simply need to clear out some household items that you have been holding onto, taking up space? This process can feel like a nightmare to anyone, especially when you have hard rubbish to dispose of. That is why hard rubbish collection services exist, and are ready to serve. Disposing of hard rubbish can become a stressful process, so why subject yourself to that? Especially if you do not have the equipment or experience.</p>
<h2>What is hard rubbish?</h2>
<p>To properly understand the process of disposing your hard <a href="https://burnsidetrash.com.au/">rubbish rubbish in Adelaide</a>, it is crucial you first know what qualifies as hard rubbish. To clarify what counts as hard rubbish, think of items that have certain disposal requirements; for example, mattresses, fridges and freezers. Certain types of waste from your garden or backyard also falls into this category, such as branches. Generally what we mean by the term hard rubbish, is bulky items that are difficult to move.</p>
<h2>Why do these items pose a challenge?</h2>
<p>A challenge is posed when looking to remove these bulky items, as often local authorities only offer 1-3 collections of hard waste each year. You cannot dispose of these large, bulky items in regular waste collection due to their size and need for size-specific equipment, which makes it difficult to organise a hard waste collection. The only options you have left are to try and dispose of the rubbish yourself- potentially injuring yourself-, or organise for a waste company to come and provide service for your hard waste collection. It is not recommended that anyone tries to remove and dispose of their hard waste on their own. This is because it is essential to possess the right equipment for the job, including a suitable vehicle or trailer to transport your items. If you are disposing of many items and do not have access to transport large enough to fit everything, this will cause you to take multiple trips which is very time consuming. Furthermore, getting injured is a very real aspect to consider before deciding to do it yourself. Providing you have a suitable vehicle, are within distance of a recycling centre, and have considered the possibility of injury, it is possible to do it yourself, but keep in mind that we are a professional rubbish removal service, trained to do this exact job safely and efficiently, saving you the time and effort.</p>
<h2>Hard waste collection services are your easiest option</h2>
<p>If you are in need of a hard waste collection service, call Burnside Trash. We are able to provide you with efficient hard waste collection, when you want it. How long have you been holding onto bulky items and have simply never gotten around to disposing of them because they have such specific requirements? How much space would you make in your garage or storage facility if you removed all these large or heavy objects? These objects are difficult to handle, and that is exactly why we are here to help, with our hard waste collection service. If you book our service, you will no longer have to stress about what to do with all these hard waste objects. We will simply be able to turn up, load your rubbish and remove it straight away- safely and quickly. As soon as you have booked our service, there is no more heavy lifting on your part, and we will do the rest. There is no reason to make this job harder on yourself than it needs to be.</p>
<h2>Moving home?</h2>
<p>If you need to dispose of your hard rubbish due to moving into a new home, it is extremely beneficial to book our service. Moving homes is stressful enough when considering all the packing that needs to be done, and you likely don’t want to spend valuable time trying to remove your hard waste yourself. So don’t! Many people who try to do this themselves end up leaving their hard waste in a public space, and this is illegal, and harmful to the environment. If you do not have the skills or equipment to legally and safely dispose of your hard waste, book a professional service and you won’t even need to think twice about it.</p>
<p>The best way to remove your hard rubbish is by booking a collection service. This will ultimately save you time, effort, and money. Your time is valuable, and disposing of your hard waste correctly is a time-consuming process, but not if you book our service. We do not recommend you attempt to remove the waste yourself, as you risk injury, whereas our team is professionally trained to do so safely. The money you end up spending on suitable transport and petrol, will be put to better and more efficient use when you book our service instead. On top of the fact that local councils only offer between 1-3 hard waste collection services each year, the wait for such service could be up to 8-10 weeks. Again, we urge you to consider our efficient services when in need of hard waste removal.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://burnsidetrash.com.au/what-we-do/hard-waste/">Hard rubbish</a> is classed as large bulky items that cannot fit into a regular bin. Your regular weekly rubbish pick up won’t remove this rubbish for you and finding the right waste collection dump point is a challenge when you live in the Adelaide region. You may not have the right vehicle to transport the majority of your hard waste, and if you do it may require you to take many trips to and from and that will take a lot of your time, not to mention hiring a trailer if needed. This is where you hire a hard rubbish and waste collection company that will do all the hard lifting for you.</p>
<p>Hard rubbish is rubbish that has certain disposal requirements. These larger items include things like fridges, washing machines, couches, tables, televisions, mattresses etc. Some green waste also falls into this category such as large branches and stumps. Hard waste is classed as large, heavy bulky items that can’t easily be moved.</p>
<p>Hard rubbish can make moving home extremely difficult. After many years of living at your current home you may have found that you have ended up with a massive build up of rubbish that never bothered you before until now. Make sure you don’t leave any hard rubbish or general waste behind when you move, this can come back around and fall on you. Talk to the team at Burnside Trash to get a quote to help you remove your hard rubbish and general waste from your property today.</p>
<h2>What isn’t classed as Hard Rubbish?</h2>
<p>Hard Rubbish may seem like almost everything from your backyard but there are a few things that you cannot remove as hard rubbish and need to be separated from other waste. Anything that was on a building site and/or construction materials such as cement mix, dirt, rubble and titles to list a few. Other items include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Domestic waste</li>
<li>Hazardous waste (chemicals, paint, gas bottles, fuel canisters etc)</li>
<li>Car bodies</li>
<li>Batteries</li>
<li>Garden waste</li>
<li>Unwrapped or broken glass</li>
<li>Tyres</li>
<li>Cardboard , bottles, cans e.g. kerbside recyclable items</li>
<li>Medical waste e.g. syringes and sanitary items.</li>
</ul>
<h2>How to remove hard rubbish, why can’t I do it myself?</h2>
<p>Hard Rubbish Collection in Adelaide is difficult to remove from your property because you only get a limited amount of hard waste pick ups from your local council every year which can lead to a build up of hard waste at your home and quickly becomes an eye-sore. You can remove the items yourself although this will require for you to have the vehicle to carry the items and be within reach of a waste disposal centre. You also need to be aware that these items are normally very heavy and require more than one person to lift them, if you are not familiar with how to lift heavy and bulky items you may end up with an injury.<br />
Hard Waste Collection is the easiest method of removing hard rubbish, getting a professional to do the heavy lifting and hard work saves you money and any risk of injury. The team at Burnside Trash have the experience and knowledge of how to dispose of hard rubbish properly and safely without any risks. We can get your hard waste removed from your property quickly without any hassles.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span lang="EN-AU">HOW YOUR RUBBISH GETS DISPOSED</span></h2>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">Rubbish disposal is an ongoing problem for</span><span lang="EN-AU"> wider</span><span lang="EN-AU"> community and the environment. Many Adelaide households depend on their local council’s garbage collection service to dispose of their waste on a weekly basis, but this option </span><span lang="EN-AU">won’t always work.</span><span lang="EN-AU"> Hard or heavy items such as concrete, bricks, rocks, car parts and timber are restricted from being disposed off in general waste bins</span><span lang="EN-AU">.</span><span lang="EN-AU"> Other items such as </span><a href="https://www.burnsidetrash.com.au/what-we-do/e-waste/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span lang="EN-AU">electronic waste</span></a><span lang="EN-AU"> (</span><span lang="EN-AU">E-Waste</span><span lang="EN-AU">) can also be tricky to dispose of properly.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559738&quot;:200,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">Overflowing waste can quickly add up and finding cost effective and environmentally friendly ways to dispose of your waste can be time consuming. Waste in landfill can take centuries to degrade, landfill sites also take up large amounts of space, as populations rise and more land is needed to develop with the rising population, landfill is quickly becoming a</span><span lang="EN-AU">n</span><span lang="EN-AU"> obvious unsustainable waste management system and our environment is quickly being harmed in the process. It’s an avoidable situation, </span><span lang="EN-AU">w</span><span lang="EN-AU">e’d like to urge you not to dispose waste into landfills unless it is absolutely necessary</span><span lang="EN-AU"> </span><span lang="EN-AU">( Recycle</span><span lang="EN-AU"> items that are recyclable.)</span><span lang="EN-AU">—our team can help you avoid it through our range of services for households and businesses.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559738&quot;:200,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">Below we’ll explain what happens to your rubbish once it gets disposed into a landfill—hopefully, the below information will inspire you to start disposing of your waste in an environmentally friendly manner so we can all do our bit together to reduce landfill waste!</span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span lang="EN-AU">What Happens In Landfills</span></h2>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">In modern landfills, the waste gets segregated into municipal solid waste, construction and demolition waste and white goods. These types of waste are disposed of separately</span><span lang="EN-AU">,</span><span lang="EN-AU"> </span><span lang="EN-AU">with as many</span><span lang="EN-AU"> recyclable</span><span lang="EN-AU"> materials as possible being</span><span lang="EN-AU"> diverted to recycling depots.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}">  </span><span lang="EN-AU">The waste in landfills is rolled over and turned into a compact pile with the help of heavy and large equipment. After the pile reaches a prescribed height, a layer of dirt is added and a second pile is added.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">The bottom of the pile of rubbish is lined with rubber to prevent contamination of groundwater. This ground water is also collected and processed using a network of pipes. </span><span lang="EN-AU">In some large landfill sites, g</span><span lang="EN-AU">as wells are also drilled into the rubbish pile to collect methane produced in landfills. This methane is put to good use in generators or for heating.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">In theory, the system of a landfill works quite well, but </span><span lang="EN-AU">it</span><span lang="EN-AU"> </span><span lang="EN-AU">can and has had</span><span lang="EN-AU"> a huge cost on the environment. Additionally, it’s not always possible to prevent contamination of groundwater or collect all of the methane. It’s best to avoid our rubbish going to landfill.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span lang="EN-AU">&#8220;So if you’re in doubt about how to dispose of your waste, please contact a good rubbish removal company for help and advice!</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}">&#8220;</span></p>
<h2>TIME FOR ACTION</h2>
<p>Let your rubbish problem become ours</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span lang="EN-AU">Where Your Rubbish Goes</span></h2>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">Regardless of the ways in which you remove rubbish from your home, or the amount of rubbish you produce, you’ve probably wondered before where your rubbish ends up. The average Australian produces </span><span lang="EN-AU">more than 2.6</span><span lang="EN-AU"> tonnes of waste every year, so we’re each responsible for a massive amount of waste—and this figure is rising all the time!</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">In South Australia, waste generally has two places it can be safely disposed of, these options are landfill or a recycling depot.</span><span lang="EN-AU"> Where it ends up is up to you and your behaviour—it’s your choice, your decision to determine how you dispose of your waste. If your rubbish ends up in landfill, i</span><span lang="EN-AU">t</span><span lang="EN-AU"> will have negative effects on the environment. If you can ensure your recyclables end up at a recycling depot, you will be helping the environment and reducing landfill waste.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"><span lang="EN-AU"><strong>1. DUMPED IN LANDFILLS</strong></span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559738&quot;:360,&quot;335559739&quot;:80,&quot;335559740&quot;:335}"><strong>​</strong></span></span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">While majority of waste produced within South Australia is successfully diverted from landfill, close to 1 mega-tonne (970,000Kg) of waste a year is disposed of into landfill sites, which are simply dumping sites where your rubbish remains permanently. Once a landfill site becomes full, it is covered up and a new landfill is created—hence </span><span lang="EN-AU">why </span><span lang="EN-AU">the world is quickly running out of space for our rubbish.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">Landfills are an environmental hazard. The rubbish that gets dumped into landfills slowly degrades and decomposes over time, causing </span><span lang="EN-AU">e</span><span lang="EN-AU">mission of greenhouse gases, which as you likely know contributes to global warming and other environment ill-effects. Some rubbish decomposes fairly quickly, but items like plastics tak</span><span lang="EN-AU">e decades</span><span lang="EN-AU">, even </span><span lang="EN-AU">centuries</span><span lang="EN-AU">, to</span><span lang="EN-AU"> completely</span><span lang="EN-AU"> degrade, putting enormous pressure on our environment.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">When you next need to dispose of household rubbish, stop to think for a moment about landfills and what impact the waste you are about to throw out will have on the environment. </span>  <span lang="EN-AU" style="color: #00a651; font-size: 20px;">Will the materials you’re throwing out decompose quickly and easily? </span><span style="font-size: 20px;"><span style="color: #00a651;"> </span></span><span lang="EN-AU"><span style="color: #00a651; font-size: 20px;">Will they take decades and release toxins into the environment?</span> </span>  <span lang="EN-AU">Try to think of the best option to dispose of your waste—not all rubbish should go to landfill. As we’ll explain later in this guide, there are many </span><span lang="EN-AU">types of waste that can be recycled or reused!</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>

<p><span lang="EN-AU">In so many parts of the world there is insufficient space for landfills. In these places incineration plants are used to dispose of rubbish, which </span><span lang="EN-AU">can be</span><span lang="EN-AU"> extremely toxic and damaging to the environment. Incineration is the process of burning rubbish to get rid of it. Keep in mind that incineration is<span style="color: #333333;"> </span></span><span style="color: #333333;"><span lang="EN-AU">prohibited b</span></span><span lang="EN-AU">y most councils in your own backyard.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">While Australia does not currently have an incineration plant, Western Australia has recently green lighted a residual waste incineration plant. This incineration plant, unlike the ones that will burn all manners of waste which can be extremely damaging to the environment, will only burn the residual pieces of waste collected </span><span lang="EN-AU">after the recycling process. This means that any waste that was not successfully recycled, can be incinerated, reducing the amount of waste going to land fill.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}">​</span></p>

<p><span lang="EN-AU">Recycling is the most environmentally friendly and preferable method of waste disposal around the world. Recycling your rubbish avoids unnecessary waste being sent to landfill, which reduces the impact on the environment. </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span><span lang="EN-AU">Not all materials can be recycled, but a large number of them can—materials like glass, metal, paper, organic waste and some plastics can easily be recycled.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>

<p><span lang="EN-AU">So many households end up with too much waste on their hands, and end up confused about how best to dispose of their rubbish. Most people make use of the council waste collection services, but many others choose to dispose waste on their own, thinking they’re doing the right thing—but the truth is that both of these approaches are not optimal for the environment or the household.

<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span lang="EN-AU">RESIDENTIAL HARD RUBBISH REMOVAL</span></h2>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">Residential rubbish is also called urban solid waste.

<p><span lang="EN-AU">Recycling waste includes paper, glass, aluminium, cardboard and plastic. Biodegradable waste is organic waste, such as food scraps and food products. Construction waste is items such as rocks, debris and timber. Assorted waste can include household items such as clothing, shoes and books. Hazardous waste consists of items that are potentially hazardous to the environment or humans, such as paints, transmission fluids, fertilisers, chemicals.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:360}"> </span></p>

<p><span lang="EN-AU">When hiring a residential rubbish removal company, it’s important to do your research and ensure the company you are hiring is reputable and qualified.

<p><span lang="EN-AU">If you have a small amount of rubbish to be removed you may consider a bin only service.

<p><span lang="EN-AU">Whenever you can, look for ways to reduce the amount of your waste in your daily life</span><span lang="EN-AU">,</span><span lang="EN-AU"> before thinking of reusing or recycling. Simple ideas you could try include reducing your use of plastic bags and completely avoiding the purchase of non-recyclable materials. Go for products that have minimal packaging and choose items that you can use productively and repeatedly. Try to choose products that eliminate new waste being produced, and keep an eye out for products made by companies dedicated to lessening their impact on the environment. Reducing waste altogether is the number one solution for avoiding harm to the environment.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">Of course it’s impossible for you to reduce waste completely—but you can certainly greatly reduce the waste you choose to buy. Choose your products wisely!  </span><span lang="EN-AU">As a professional rubbish removal company in Adelaide, we’ve seen it all, and the best piece of advice we can give you is to reduce your waste to start with—rather than be stuck trying to work out how to get rid of products you never needed to start with.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}">​</span></p>

<p><span lang="EN-AU">Before you throw out your waste, think creatively about what materials or products you could reuse! If you think you have products that could be reused but you won’t reuse yourself, consider donating the products to a charity or other </span><span lang="EN-AU">community organisations</span><span lang="EN-AU"> that would benefit from them.</span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">—you’ll not only be helping other people, but the environment too. Reusing products is a great solution to reducing your waste, and it will also save you money that you would otherwise spend on waste removal. </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-AU">There are so many items that get discarded as waste that could easily be reused. Things like bottles and containers, envelopes, cardboard, packaging can all be reused in various ways. When you purchase products, look for items that can be refilled, reused or recycled. Try to repair your items instead of replacing them. Use rechargeable batteries and any other repeat use items that you can use over and over.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}">​</span></p>

<p><span lang="EN-AU">Recycling is the most environmentally friendly way of eliminating your waste in Adelaide. By recycling products, less of your waste to be sent to landfills and incineration plants, making a huge positive impact to the environment.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}">  </span><span lang="EN-AU">Recycling of products is easy—use your local council recycling service, take you recyclables to a depot, or call a professional rubbish removal company to help you transfer the recyclables to the right location. Don’t forget to separate all recyclable waste from your garbage—and don’t throw any recyclables away in your trash! When you’re purchasing products, choose products that can be recycled over those that cannot—this information will be stated on product labels. It’s also worth remembering that In South </span><span lang="EN-AU">Australia, you can earn a 10c rebate on cans, bottles and other recyclables when you take them to your local recycling depot—it might not seem like much, but it adds up to a nice little incentive if you do this often enough!</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559740&quot;:384}"> </span></p>
