Rubbish Removal in South Melbourne
We do a lot of rubbish removal in South Melbourne, and the variety of jobs here reflects the mix of the suburb. The terrace houses and converted warehouses in the streets around the South Melbourne Market have the kind of long-term storage that builds up over decades, and cleared properties near the Market often need the work done early to avoid the Saturday crowd. The Clarendon Street commercial strip generates steady fit-out waste when tenancies change over. And the mid-century apartment blocks and newer infill buildings add apartment turnovers to the mix. Rob is based in Prahran, about 10 minutes away, so you always deal with a local team that turns up when it says it will.
We handle the full range of household, office and commercial rubbish in South Melbourne: furniture, whitegoods, mattresses, e-waste, renovation rubble, garage clear-outs and deceased estate cleanups. We lift and load everything ourselves, sweep up on the way out, and sort for recycling wherever possible. No skips, no trip to the tip.
Since 2008 we have diverted over 320,000 kg from landfill through our Prahran-based recycling and donation partnerships. Metals, timber, e-waste and reusable furniture from South Melbourne clearouts are sorted and directed to the right facilities rather than to landfill.

Hard Rubbish Collection in South Melbourne
City of Port Phillip
South Melbourne falls under the City of Port Phillip, which provides four free hard waste collections per year for houses and six free collections annually for apartment buildings and units. Residents book online and select from available pick-up dates for their area. Pick-up days are typically the same as your regular bin collection day. Items should be sorted into separate piles for hard waste, metal or appliances, and e-waste. Each booking is capped at 2 cubic metres of hard waste. If you need a faster turnaround, your load is bigger than the cap, or your items are outside the council list, It’s Done can clear South Melbourne rubbish when you call.
Can’t wait for the council collection?
Port Phillip hard waste bookings run on a schedule tied to your bin day, and available slots are often weeks out. It’s Done clears South Melbourne rubbish when you call, with no waiting and no cap on load size.
