A Guide to Preparing Your Rubbish for the Dump
July 8, 2021

What’s the state of your rubbish before you take it to the rubbish dump? Organizing your waste may seem like it’s unnecessary, but it is highly important.

If you don’t prepare your rubbish for the dump - a range of things can happen. The waste could pour into your car while you’re transporting it, or your mini bin could get destroyed in the process. You can probably imagine the state of your vehicle or driveway if any of the things above happen.

So to have a smooth ride to the rubbish dump , prepare your rubbish in the following ways:

Get Proper Disposal Bin

You need the right size disposal bin that can contain all the waste you plan to dispose of. When your mini bin is big enough, you have enough space to arrange your waste in it before you take it to the rubbish dump. 

A wrongly sized mini bin can spoil all your efforts to taking your rubbish to the dump because many things could go wrong. For example, the waste could spill out of the bin if it’s too small, or the bin may break under the pressure of all your wastes. 

For your high-quality mini bins, you can book from Metro waste!

Store Your Waste in a Waste Bag

If you dump your waste into a bin without putting it in a waste sack first, this is your sign to stop. Apart from the fact that the waste will stain the bin and make it unfit for subsequent use, the waste will take up more space than it needs.

Throw any type of waste you produce in your Adelaide home into sacks before putting it in your mini bin. You can make it a habit to throw your trash into bags by lining every dustbin in your home with a sack. Once the sacks are full, you can take them to the bin you’ll be taking to the rubbish dump.

This will cut your preparation time in half since your waste will already be arranged in the waste bin. 

Group Them According to Type

Most rubbish dumps don’t accept combined waste. Let’s say you combine your household waste with your garden’s green waste.  Combined wastes will not be accepted. If you want to dispose of household waste, dispose of it separately. 

You should also know the types of waste the rubbish dumps accept. Most rubbish dumps have what they do and don’t accept, and knowing this will let you know whether you can take your rubbish to them.

You should call the rubbish dump ahead of the day you plan to go and dump your waste. So if they say they don’t accept your rubbish, you can look for another rubbish dump that accepts it.

Some rubbish dumps tend to be picky, and that’s why you should go for Adelaide waste management facilities that accept a wide range of waste . If you want inclusion when it comes to waste, come to Metro waste! We accept most forms of waste with pick up services available!

Thinking of disposing of that waste? Let’s help you with it!

How To Prepare For Your Trip To The Rubbish Dump
June 27, 2021

How prepared are you for your first trip to the rubbish dump? Have you covered all the necessary bases?

Going unprepared to your rubbish dump can make the process way longer than it has to be, which shouldn’t be so. When you’re well prepared for a trip to the rubbish dump, you shouldn’t spend more than 10-15 minutes.

To avoid wasting a lot of time at your rubbish dump- follow these tips that will prepare you for your trip to the rubbish dump :

The Rubbish Dump You’re Going to

There are many rubbish dumps in Adelaide. Before you even think of going to the rubbish dump, you should know the rubbish dump you’re going to. If you already have a rubbish dump you plan to visit, great, don’t have? Here are some things that can help you make a selection.

Look for the rubbish dump closest to you. You wouldn’t want to drive miles just to dispose of simple trash, so make sure you find one close to you.

Find a rubbish dump that accepts most of the waste you produce. Most rubbish dumps accept household waste, but what about landscaping, construction etc. waste? 

If you’re going there for the purpose of disposing of a particular type of waste, you should be sure the rubbish dump meets all your requirements.

Know the Reason Why You’re Going to the Rubbish Dump

Before you prepare for a trip to the rubbish dump, you need to know why you’re going there. Are you going there to dispose of trash or to inquire about the days they’re open? Do they accept the type of waste you want to dispose of?

Most rubbish dumps have specific guidelines on the type of waste they accept, so you need to know beforehand. For example, they may accept all sorts of solid waste but wouldn’t want green waste. Knowing things like this will let you know what to expect when you get there.

Most landfills are located in the outskirts of Adelaide, so you could imagine how far you’d have to drive to get there. Prevent disappointments by calling or making inquiries ahead of your trip. Once you’ve identified the main reason why you’re going there, and you’re sure they accept the type of waste you want to dispose of, you can move on to the next step.

Arrange Your Waste

Often, rubbish dumps want you to group your waste according to type. Here’s how it works, if you want to dispose of household waste, let it be pure household waste. Don’t mix in waste from your garden or tech scraps you have lying around in your garage.

Mixing your waste can cause issues when you get there because there’s a possibility they reject your waste. Getting turned back when you’ve arranged your waste and set your mind to dispose of it can frustrate you. 

Preparing for the rubbish dump is stress, stress you don’t have to put yourself through. Why? Because you can get a professional waste management company to take your waste to the rubbish dump for you. Metro Waste is an Adelaide waste facility you can trust to handle your waste properly.

Top 3 Tips Why To Invest In Help From a Professional Waste Management Company In Adelaide
June 24, 2021

Waste management is one chore everyone thinks they can handle themselves. You can handle household waste yourself because it’s limited to the waste you produce at home and doesn’t require much skills.

But when it comes to business, landscaping and construction projects, it’s better to let a professional waste management company take over.

A wide range of things can go wrong when you choose to manage your waste yourself instead of professionally. Here are the top 3 tips why you need to get help from a professional waste company in Adelaide: 

Convenience

One of the major reasons you should hire a professional waste management company is simply because of its convenience. You could probably handle disposing of your household waste most times- but what about when you can’t? When you have to travel or when you’re running late from work? 

You can’t say you’ll rush from work simply because you want to dispose of trash- get an Adelaide waste management company to do it for you!

Same thing when you run a business, especially one that produces a ton of waste. You can’t keep on assigning different staffs to garbage duty when you can simply get a company to do it for you. So let your staff do their work well while you get professionals to come in and handle the waste.

Saves Y ou Money and Time

This mostly applies to business or large scale waste. After doing major landscaping or remodelling projects, you’ll need somebody to handle all that waste.

If you try to handle it yourself, you’d probably have to rent a car or truck to transport all the waste. You’d be giving yourself unnecessary headache because you’d rather handle the disposal of such a large amount of waste.

For household waste, Constantly driving to the rubbish dump will cost you a lot of fuel money. Fuel money isn’t an issue? Cool. Then what about the hours you spend driving to the rubbish dump weekly? Time is one thing money can’t buy, and wouldn’t you rather spend your time doing better things?

Especially when there are waste management facilities that can handle your waste for a token. You can book Metro waste to handle the transportation of your waste at a very affordable fee. In addition, the booking process won’t take much of your time or resources.

Obedience of All Protocols 

You may not know this, but one of the reasons why professional waste management facilities exist in the first place is because of how hazardous waste can be. Specialised equipment is used by professionals to ensure they’re protected from any harmful substance in the waste while handling it.

When you choose to handle your waste yourself, you’re exposing yourself to a lot of toxicity- the bad kind. If you do it the first time and nothing happened to you, what about the subsequent times? At one point, it’s going to catch up to you.

Disposal of hazardous substances containing asbestos also requires special clearance because of how delicate their disposal. 

Protect yourself by hiring an Adelaide professional waste management company .Metro Waste can handle any size or type of waste you produce. Contact us now to get a quote!

Everything You Need To Know Before Visiting A Rubbish Dump In Adelaide
June 10, 2021

Rubbish dumps, as the name implies, is where people go to dump their rubbish. Every waste you see on the streets of Adelaide has a final resting point, and that’s the rubbish dump. If you’ve never been to a rubbish dump, however, you won’t really know what to do before getting to a rubbish dump.

These tips will let you know what to do, expect and follow before visiting a rubbish dump. Here is everything you need to know before visiting a rubbish dump in Adelaide:

You Need to Know the Rubbish Dump

Before you can visit any rubbish dump in Adelaide, you need to know where you’re going. There are many rubbish dumps you can visit in Adelaide- some of which aren’t worth your time.

Many rubbish dumps are simply too far or aren’t run very well, so you need to do your proper research. Go online and search for the most popular rubbish dump- the popular ones are usually very good.

And if you’d rather go with something of your choosing, research. There’s truly no guarantee that just because something is popular, it’s good. Look for the rubbish dumps that are closer to your home and visit them to check how they run their operations.

The Types of Waste

Every rubbish dump in Adelaide has the waste they do and do not accept. Knowing what type of waste a rubbish dump accepts lets you know what you’ll be taking there.

Most times, when you’re taking a trip to the rubbish dump, it’s usually because you want to dispose of trash. After rounding up all your trash, it’s important the rubbish dump you’re going to accepts it. 

If you’re coming from the site of a large project, you’ll be dealing with a lot of waste you can’t take back. 

You’ll have to know how to classify waste to understand the types of waste these rubbish dumps want. Solid waste, green waste, household or general waste etc., are some of the types of waste you should be expecting.

Solid waste includes materials like cement, bricks etc., and green waste includes organic materials such as soil, tree clippings etc. 

How They Like Receiving Their Waste

Rubbish dumps can be peculiar in how they want their waste delivered to them. Some rubbish dumps could want their waste in mini bins they approved of- they may not like your garbage disposal bin.

You may also need to group your waste according to type. Once you’ve identified the type of waste the rubbish dump accepts, the next step is to group it. If you’re disposing of green waste, do not include household waste. Separate them to make the sorting process easier.

They could send you back if your waste isn’t properly grouped.

The hoops you have to jump over before you visit a rubbish dump is one of the reasons people rarely go themselves. There are waste management facilities people who handle waste from the moment it leaves your home all the way to the rubbish dump. 

Let Metro Waste do that for you! We’ll pick up your waste- any type- and take it to the rubbish dump. What type of waste do you plan to dispose of? Tell us!

5 Reasons Why Professional Asbestos Disposal in Adelaide Is A Must
June 3, 2021

You’ve probably heard of how stringent the asbestos disposal process in Adelaide is and wondered why. Asbestos contains a hazardous chemical, and so it needs to be handled with care. Before you dispose of asbestos, you have to ensure professionals are present to abide by all necessary protocols.

So before you attempt to dispose of your asbestos yourself, finish reading these 5 reasons why professional asbestos disposal is a must:

Protection From Dangerous Substances

 

You could-and maybe not- know this. Inhaling the chemical fibres that are released when asbestos is broken down can cause a wide range of diseases. Asbestos-related diseases include different forms of cancer and lung issues. When you handle asbestos disposal yourself without getting proper help, you’ll be leaving yourself vulnerable to all forms of diseases.

Professionals know how to handle asbestos disposal while ensuring they’re protected from harmful substances.

Special Approval

There are laws surrounding the disposal of asbestos due to how touchy its disposal is. Therefore, the government gives few waste management facilities the approval to dispose of asbestos. The ones that are allowed to dispose of asbestos are approved of because they have all the special equipment and handle it very well.

Handling asbestos improperly can attract heavy fines when you’re caught. Professional asbestos disposal is a must in Adelaide to prevent heavy fines and remain on the good size of the law.

Recycling  

You may not know this, but asbestos can be recycled. However, it can only be recycled when it’s disposed of in a proper manner. Professionals know where they take asbestos to after picking it up. When asbestos is getting recycled, it becomes non-hazardous and is used to make materials such as concrete, glass, ceramic etc.

Handling asbestos disposal yourself means you’re ruining the chances of a dangerous substance becoming useful. Protect the Adelaide environment by recycling asbestos.

Metro waste ensures that all asbestos waste we dispose of is recycled and repurposed to become more useful to society.

Protection of Environment

Substances that are disposed of improperly might cause significant pollution. Not properly disposing of asbestos can have negative consequences on the land, water, and air. You are the only one at risk of getting sick, though, if the asbestos is solely in your property.

However once the substances leave your space, you put most of the people in your immediate environment in danger. The last thing you want to do is potentially harm your neighbours because you don’t want to get professional assistance.

Professionals know how they’ll wrap up the asbestos materials to ensure that even the smallest speck of asbestos doesn’t get out.

Proper Cleanup

If you clean up the asbestos site yourself, there’s a high possibility you won’t clean it well. Stray asbestos can still be left behind, and that can expose anyone who lives in that area to diseases.

Professionals know how they’ll clean up a site to ensure that all traces of asbestos are removed. 

Planning a renovation or construction project? Then you’ll probably be dealing with a lot of asbestos! Contact Metro Waste to handle your waste for you!

We Can Help You Safely Dispose of Asbestos!
April 21, 2020

Is your home several decades old? If so, you might have been exposed to asbestos.

Asbestos was a popular construction material, used all the way through the 70s. It’s most frequent application was in residential roofing, acting as an insulator. It was also used in cement sheets and a variety of pipes. Later on, this material fell out of use to favour other products. The reason? A concerning discovery on its hazardous effects over the human body.

The Dangers of Asbestos

Asbestos causes many adverse health effects through the inhalation of its fibres. The higher the number of fibres you breathe in, the greater the risk you’re exposed to. 

Since fibres enter your body through the respiratory system, the material mainly affects this system. Asbestos has been linked to asbestosis, a disease that causes inflammation and scar tissue to form in the lungs. This might eventually cause respiratory failure.

Asbestos has also been linked to other conditions, including mesothelioma and lung cancer. In fact, asbestos is so harmful that inhaling it leads to a higher risk for lung cancer than smoking.

Due to the proven link between asbestos and a variety of diseases, its use has now been banned in many countries. However, older properties, built before the ban, still contain asbestos. Removing these materials promptly and securely is critical for lung disease prevention.

If you need to dispose of asbestos in your Adelaide property, make sure you hire a professional asbestos rubbish dump service .

What Is the Safest Way to Dispose of Asbestos?

Run of the mill rubbish dump Adelaide solutions won’t cut it when it comes to asbestos. Careless disposal of asbestos can actually result in more harm than good. As asbestos-containing materials are thrown out, bound asbestos fibres are released into the air. This exposes those living in the property and handling the asbestos removal to asbestos fibre inhalation.

The safest way to handle asbestos disposal is through a professional asbestos removal service . A specialised asbestos removal team will be able to provide the equipment and experience necessary to handle such hazardous material. Best practices will guarantee the safety of you and everyone you care about.

Why Proper Disposal of Asbestos Is Vital!
September 2, 2018

Is your property old? If your property was built before the ’80s, you should watch out for asbestos. Previously, the use of asbestos was prevalent in residential roofing. Before people were aware of the material’s potential to cause deadly illness, it was quite a popular material because of its low price. However, due to the harm it can cause, roofers no longer work with asbestos.

Do you have an asbestos problem? If so, don’t wait any longer to schedule an asbestos removal service for your Adelaide property. Neglecting to do so might even put your life in danger.

Is Asbestos Dangerous For You?

Exposure to asbestos is a real threat to your health. When asbestos is present in your house or other property, asbestos fibres can enter your respiratory tract. Airborne fibres can also be ingested. These deadly fibres can make their way into your lungs or digestive tract.

Once asbestos fibres have made their way into your body, they can cause real havoc. In fact, they are the main culprits for three severe diseases:

  • Asbestosis
  • Lung Cancer
  • Mesothelioma
     

This is why scheduling a prompt asbestos removal service for your Adelaide property is so important. By doing so, you are protecting yourself, your family/friends and in the case of businesses, clients and employees.

How Can You Get Rid Of Asbestos Fast?

The best way to tackle an asbestos problem is with the help of an Adelaide asbestos removal professional.

This is because asbestos fibres become friable and can enter your system if you handle your old roofing tiles on your own. On the other hand, an asbestos removal professional is trained to manage these materials and has access to all the necessary equipment.

Additionally, because this material is a well-known hazard, there are many regulations that professionals have to abide by during its removal.

How Metro Waste Reduces Landfill!
September 2, 2018

At Metro Waste, taking care of the environment is not only an important task. It is what we devote our daily operations to. It is the very essence of what we stand for.

By managing Adelaide’s waste management and rubbish dump services, we play a crucial role in green living. The way we decide to do what we do has a huge potential to impact the environment. By promoting green rubbish dump practices in the Adelaide area, we hold a position to make a real change.

We know that what we do can help our community and the environment. We know that our work makes a real difference. Without our role in proper waste management and processing, Adelaide would be in grave danger.

When inappropriately disposed of, many of the waste products end up tossed at a landfill. Not only is the growth rate of our landfills a concern, but there are also other things to worry about.

Much of the rubbished dumped at Adelaide landfills, could have been recycled if appropriately processed. Even worse, some of the waste products pose a severe danger to the planet. As they decompose under the heat, they can release dangerous toxic by-products into the air and soil. That means that instead of polluting our environment, these waste materials could have a new purpose and use.

How Does Metro Waste Contribute To Reduced Landfills?

For over 3 decades, Metrowaste has helped a large number of Adelaide households and business dump their rubbish responsibly.

Part of what allows us to make such a significant impact on our community is our accessibility. We make green waste disposal easy and convenient for all. How? We run a productive transfer station, fully equipped to receive, sort and process a wide variety of waste.

What Is a Transfer Station?
September 2, 2018

At Metro waste, we offer a wide variety of waste management solutions in the Adelaide area. Through our multiple efforts, we contribute to the responsible disposal of dangerous waste, reducing the size of landfills, and recycling. This keeps our streets clean and our environment healthy!

A lot of what we do at our Adelaide waste management facilities relies on the efficiency of our transfer station. In fact, our transfer station is key to the performance of our daily tasks.

If you want to find out more about how we process your waste and rubbish, understanding how our transfer station works is a great place to start!

What is a Transfer Station?

In short, a transfer station is the most crucial part of any Adelaide waste management facility. It is also the area that most people come in contact with.

Basically, a transfer station is an area designed for the unloading, sorting and proper categorisation of waste products. This allows for each product to be transported and processed correctly. This prevents dangerous waste materials, such as batteries or paint, from getting lost among the regular waste.

With the aid of transfer stations, we can guarantee every product is in its rightful place. This keeps pollution and environmental damage to a minimum.

How Do Transfer Stations Contribute To Adelaide Waste Management?

When you visit Metro Waste’s Thebarton facilities, your waste will be placed in our transfer station. Garbage collected by our skip bin hires is picked up by our team and also dropped off at the transfer station.

From there, your different solid waste products will be sorted by category. After, each type of waste is loaded into designated transport vehicles. These vehicles are used to move like-waste products to designated areas.

Items, like plastic bottles, are transported to recycling facilities. Other wastes that can’t be recycled is taken to other areas where they can safely be disposed of according to regulations.

At Metro Waste, we always aim to process all kinds of waste in the greenest possible way. And our transfer station is one of the most essential tools we use to achieve it.

Some of the uses our Adelaide waste management facility transfer station provides include:

  • Giving Adelaide citizens a location for disposal for a variety of waste products
  • Allowing the complete screening, sorting and categorisation of waste
  • Simplifying the recollection of recyclable waste products
  • Contributed to the organisation of transportation and processing of waste
  • Reduces the amount of garbage that is dumped at our landfills

  • General Waste
  • Green Waste (vegetation and soil)
  • Building Waste (including bricks and concrete)

Don`t Let Asbestos Put Your Family At Risk We Offer Professional Asbestos Disposal!
September 2, 2018

Many years ago, asbestos was used in the production of thousands of items. It was cheap, durable and fire-resistant. That is why asbestos was used in the production of many building materials and consumer goods, such as ironing board covers, irons, hairdryers and potholders.

As the health risks associated with asbestos were discovered, its use has declined. However, many Adelaide homeowners still have old asbestos-containing products in their houses. It is not advisable to perform the asbestos removal process yourself. Without the required experience, you can risk exposing you and your family to this dangerous toxin. The most appropriate way is to hire a professional, licensed asbestos removal and disposal services. In Adelaide, Metro Waste is one of the few companies that provide specialised asbestos disposal services.

How Toxic Is Asbestos?

Any damage done to asbestos-containing products can cause the release of small toxic fibres. These asbestos fibres cannot be seen with the naked eye. That is why you could inhale or ingest these fibres without even knowing it. Once they enter the body, these asbestos fibres can become lodged in the linings of the organs for an extended period.

Years later, they can cause serious health issues in organs, such as the heart, lungs or abdomen. Diseases like asbestosis, pleural thickening, mesothelioma, and lung cancer have been associated with all forms of asbestos.

Asbestos Removal

It is highly advisable to have a certified asbestos removal professional inspect your Adelaide home. Once all asbestos-containing products are identified, appropriate action should be taken. Only someone with sound knowledge and experience should perform the asbestos removal task.

At Metro Waste Adelaide , our disposal services do not include asbestos removal. However, we can easily refer you to our fantastic network of asbestos removal professionals in Adelaide. They are all highly qualified to effectively undertake the asbestos removal task.

If you chose to do it yourself, we could provide you with the required equipment, including plastic, tape, full-body suits, masks and gloves. We will also give you essential professional advice to ensure the asbestos removal is done safely and effectively. Additionally, we can also provide you with mini-bins for this type of waste.

Asbestos Disposal

At Metro Waste Adelaide, we are licensed to accept all unwanted and hazardous materials containing asbestos. We take the asbestos removal and disposal process very seriously. That is why we always make sure safe practices and procedures are followed at all times.

Once the asbestos is safely removed from your Adelaide house, we will help you get rid of it. Our team will dispose of the product safely and effectively. Before delivering the asbestos to our facility, they will make sure it is wrapped airtight in 200-micron plastic (Fortocon), secured with duct tape in manageable sized parcels. All of these products can be easily bought from any large hardware store in Adelaide.

Put the safety of you and your family first, call us now!

Spare Tyre Laying Around? We Can Help You Get Rid Of It!
September 2, 2018

Old spare tires? Once your car tyres get all worn out, there’s nothing more they can provide than visual clutter. Unless you’re using your tyres for some kind of DIY project, they have no business in you’re home.

There’s nothing that can make your home look more like a junkyard than having old dusty tyres lying around! As if that weren’t enough, old tyres can quickly become a health hazard. Rainwater can pool inside old tyres and become stagnant. Bacteria, fungi and disease-carrying mosquitoes are instantly attracted to this type of environment.

Don’t let your home become an ugly, dangerous environment!

Unless you like the messy wasteland look, getting rid of your spare tyres should be a priority. The best way to do so is recycling. Rather than letting your tyres be dumped in a landfill, do the right thing. By recycling, you are reducing environmental damage and giving your waste new use and purpose. With the service of an Adelaide tyre disposal facility, recycling your tyres doesn’t have to be complicated.
