When Are Costs Relatively Higher?

For smaller amounts of waste combined with a longer travel distance, call-out and travel costs can weigh more heavily on the total price.

In such situations, it may be beneficial to:

  • Add a few extra items to make the collection more efficient

  • Coordinate with neighbors and share the costs

  • Wait until we can combine multiple appointments in your area

In many cases, we can bundle jobs within the same neighborhood, which helps reduce travel costs.

Not sure what’s best in your situation? We’re happy to think along with you and help find the most cost-effective solution.

You name it — we’ll collect it and remove it from your home.

From an old sofa that has survived three moves,
to a mattress that should have been replaced yesterday.
An exercise bike that mainly served as a clothes rack.
Or a weathered garden bench that looks like it might walk out of the yard on its own.

Below you’ll find an overview of the items we commonly collect:

When Is Bulky Waste Collection Smarter Than Renting a Container?

Depending on the type of waste, our collection service is often more cost-effective than renting a container.

You only pay for what we take away.
No rental period. No permit. No container blocking the street.

Are you dealing with heavy materials such as rubble or sand?
In those cases, we may advise a different solution.

Frequently asked questions

  • No. We handle all lifting and loading for you — you don’t have to carry anything yourself.

    However, if you prefer a budget-friendly option, you can place the waste at the curb to help reduce costs.

  • In many cases, we can come by within 24–48 hours — and certainly before the end of the working week.

    Urgent requests are possible at an additional cost, subject to availability and consultation.

  • Often times not. With us, you only pay for what is actually removed — without fixed container rental fees or permit costs.

  • Yes. Our quotes are always non-binding until you give your approval.

    If you decide to cancel after approval, that’s no problem. We only ask you to reimburse any costs that have already been incurred on your behalf.

Sustainable handling of furniture and belongings

We believe that not everything should be treated as waste. Many furniture items and usable belongings deserve a second life.

Whenever possible, we carefully select reusable items to prevent unnecessary disposal. Some furniture pieces are passed on free of charge to people with fewer financial means who can make good use of them. In this way, we aim to operate in a socially responsible manner while supporting our local community.

Reusing furniture also helps reduce environmental impact. By extending the life of usable items, significant emissions can be avoided — approximately 2–4 kg of CO₂ per kilogram of furniture or appliance that is reused instead of discarded.
