Rubbish Removal in Carlton
We do a lot of rubbish removal in Carlton, and the suburb has its own rhythm. The nineteenth-century terraces and apartment blocks on the residential streets generate a constant stream of move-out jobs, with mattresses, furniture and bags of gear needing to be carried down narrow staircases or through tight side passages. Lygon Street commercial tenancies call for clearouts that work around trading hours. Share house and student accommodation turnovers can happen at short notice and often involve more than people expect once rooms get emptied. Parking is nearly always a negotiation on the inner-city streets. We’re based in Prahran, about 15 minutes away, and can usually be there when you call.
Parking is the tricky bit here. Lygon Street is a dining strip with clearways and tight metered and permit spots, so we work out where to put the truck before we arrive. The student-apartment blocks near the uni are dense, so we book the lift or dock first and lay down protection. The residential streets are permit-zone throughout, so we’ll carry your stuff out to the road by hand. We do these runs every week, so none of it slows us down.
We cover the full range of household, office and commercial rubbish in Carlton: furniture, whitegoods, mattresses, e-waste, renovation rubble, share-house clear-outs and deceased estate cleanups. We do all the lifting and loading, leave the area clean, and sort for recycling wherever we can. No skips to organise, no trip to the tip for you.
Carlton has a strong student and community sustainability culture and we try to match it. Since 2008 we have diverted over 320,000 kg from landfill through our Prahran-based recycling partnerships, sorting metals, timber, e-waste and reusable items away from general waste on every job.

Rob and his team completed an office strip out for us in the Melbourne CBD and did a great job. Rob is extremely personable and he kept us well informed throughout the process and we were very happy with the end result. Highly recommend It’s Done – we would engage them again for any future jobs.

Robert was very prompt – both with the quote and removing the rubbish from our office in the CBD, he knew exactly what he was doing and was very efficient. Our business was very pleased with the service and would highly recommend It’s Done Rubbish Removal. Definitely worth five stars.

Robert and his team completed some rubbish removal at a rental property I manage. He arrived on time (the next day!), completed all rubbish removal and charged a reasonable amount. He was very professional and offered a great service 🙂
Rob runs It’s Done out of Prahran, about 15 minutes from Carlton, so you always deal with a local team that turns up when it says it will. (03) 9820 1927.
Hard Rubbish Collection in Carlton
City of Melbourne
Carlton falls under the City of Melbourne, which provides one free hard waste collection per household each financial year. Residents book through the City of Melbourne’s online booking portal, selecting a collection date and listing the items to be placed out. Bookings must be made in advance and the annual allocation does not roll over if unused. It is a useful option for a planned cleanout when the timing is flexible. If you need the rubbish cleared today, or your load is too large or too varied for a single council collection, It’s Done is available when you need us.
Can’t wait for the council collection?
City of Melbourne hard waste must be booked ahead and can be weeks away. It’s Done clears Carlton rubbish when you call, with no booking queue and no waiting.
