Priced on the job

  • Whole house or deceased estateRoom by room, everything out
  • Hoarding cleanupStaged over as long as it takes
  • Construction and demolition wasteConcrete, brick, timber, plasterboard
  • Deck, shed, carport or pergolaDismantled first, then removed

The bottom four vary too much for a starting number to mean anything, so we don't invent one. They get priced properly, in writing, within 24 hours.

What moves the price

  • How much there is — the honest answer, not the hopeful one
  • How heavy it is. Concrete, brick, soil and tiles are charged by weight, because that's how the tip charges us
  • Access — stairs, a long carry from the back yard, no truck parking out front
  • Whether anything has to be taken apart before it can be carried out
  • Whether it needs sorting, and whether anything needs specialist disposal

All of that gets priced up front, not discovered on the day.

Whatever number comes back, that's the number.

How it works

Four steps. You know the price before we turn up.

  1. A customer photographing an old kitchen on her phone before booking a clearance

    Tell us what needs to go

    Tell us what's going and where

  2. An itemised Demo Bros quote on a clipboard, held on site

    Fixed price back

    Itemised quote within 24 hours

  3. A Demo Bros crew member in hi-vis carrying material out to the bin on a Melbourne driveway

    We load it

    We lift, carry and load the lot

  4. An emptied room with a clean swept concrete floor at the end of a clearance

    Swept and gone

    Left clear, swept and recycled

The heavy stuff

The stuff other rubbish guys won't take.

Most rubbish removal is two blokes and a ute. That works right up until it doesn't.

  • Concrete, brick, tiles, render and rubble — we've got the gear and the weight allowance
  • Decks, sheds, carports and pergolas taken apart first, then removed
  • Whole garages and whole houses, not one load at a time
  • Asbestos handled in-house rather than passed to another contractor
  • Sorted and recycled where we can, disposed of properly where we can't

Hoarding and deceased estates

Nothing leaves until you say so.

  • You set the pace. One room, one weekend, or staged over weeks — whatever you can manage
  • Nothing is thrown out without your say-so. Photos, documents, jewellery and anything that looks like it matters get set aside for you, not binned
  • We keep it discreet. Minimal noise, minimal mess out the front, no reason for the neighbours to take an interest
  • Executors and family welcome. We'll work with whoever is handling it and keep everyone updated
  • Fixed price up front, so there's no bill that quietly grows as the job goes on

If you'd rather just talk it through before anything else, call and ask for a quiet chat. There's no pressure and no commitment.

Building sites

Site cleared, next trade starts.

Construction and demolition waste removed across Melbourne — through the build or in one hit at the end.

  • Concrete, brick, timber, plasterboard, tiles and packaging — mixed loads are fine, we sort them
  • Staged through the build or one clear at the end, whichever suits your program
  • Sorted and recycled where we can, disposed of properly where we can't
  • Broom-swept before handover, so the next trade starts on a clear floor
  • SWMS on every job, VBA registered, $20M public liability, inducted before we arrive
  • We work to your program, including after hours where the site needs it

Fixed price guarantee

The number doesn't move.

No “that's more than you said” on the day. No day-rate creep. No surprise weight charge at the end.

If we read the load wrong, that's ours to wear

We quoted it off what you told us. Getting it right was our job, not yours. If the scope genuinely changes we'll stop and tell you before we do anything, not after.

You don't lift anything

Nothing needs to be moved to the kerb, bagged or sorted before we arrive. We come to where it is.

Swept before we leave

The space is left clear and swept, not just emptied.

Recycled where we can

Metal, timber, concrete, whitegoods and green waste get sorted and diverted rather than everything going to landfill.

Where we work

Melbourne wide — and the rest of Victoria too.

Every suburb, inner and outer, north and south of the river — that's most of what we do. For bigger clear-outs, whole houses and estates we cover the wider state as well.

Tell us where the job is and we'll tell you when we can be there — usually in the same reply as the price.

Melbourne metro and Victoria wide

Questions we get every week

The questions we get asked most, starting with the big one.

What does rubbish removal cost?

It starts at $99 for a minimum load and goes up with how much there is and how heavy it is. Concrete, brick, soil and tiles are charged by weight because that's how the tip charges us. Send the details through the form and you'll have a fixed price back within 24 hours — and that price is what you pay.

Do I need to move anything to the kerb first?

No. We come to wherever it is — the back yard, the garage, upstairs, behind the shed. You don't need to lift, bag or sort anything.

Do you take concrete, bricks and soil?

Yes. Heavy material is normal work for us — we're a demolition crew, so we've got the gear and the weight allowance for it. It's priced by weight rather than by volume.

Can you take apart a deck, shed or carport as well?

Yes. We dismantle it properly first, then remove the lot. That's demolition work rather than rubbish removal, which is why most rubbish removalists say no to it and we don't.

Do I need to be home?

Not always. If everything's accessible and you're happy for us to go ahead off the quote, we can clear it and send you photos when it's done.

Is there anything you can't take?

A few things need specialist disposal and can't go in a general load — paint and chemicals, gas bottles and car batteries. Tell us if any of that's in there and we'll point you to where it goes. Asbestos we do handle ourselves.

Do you recycle?

Where we can, yes. Metal, timber, concrete, whitegoods and green waste get sorted and diverted rather than everything going straight to landfill.

Can you clear a whole house or a deceased estate?

Yes, and we do a lot of them. Room by room, at whatever pace suits, with anything that looks like it matters set aside for you rather than thrown out. Executors and family are welcome on site or kept updated, whichever you'd prefer.

Do you do hoarding cleanups discreetly?

Yes. We keep noise and mess out the front to a minimum, nobody on the crew reacts or comments, and nothing leaves the property without you saying so. You set the pace and we work to it.

Are you insured?

$20M public liability, VBA registered, family owned since 2013. Certificates on request before we start.

Get your fixed price.

Tell us what needs to go and we'll send back a fixed price within 24 hours. Free, no obligation, and it doesn't move after that.

From $99. We do the lifting.
