For everything past what the city takes

Most weeks you don’t need us. HRM collects curbside garbage every two weeks, and a single-unit home is allowed six bags each collection — clear bags, with one black privacy bag permitted, and nothing over 25 kg. For ordinary household waste that’s plenty, and it’s free.

It stops being plenty after a move, a cleanout, a renovation, a tenant leaving, or a fortnight you simply missed. Six bags does not cover a garage that’s been filling since 2019. And plenty of what piles up isn’t bagged garbage at all — broken furniture, an old barbecue, bags that have been sitting out and split open.

That’s where we come in. No bag limit, no two-week wait, and nothing needs to be sorted or bagged before we arrive. We load it, sweep up after ourselves, and you get a firm price before we start.

Why choose us

Halifax’s garbage removal crew

🗓️

No waiting for collection day

Collection runs every two weeks, so a bad week means a fortnight of bags in the garage. We come out same-day or next-day instead, seven days a week across HRM.

🧺

Six bags isn’t a limit here

HRM allows six bags per collection from a single-unit home. Move-outs, cleanouts and renovations blow straight past that. Bring us twenty — it’s priced by truck space, not bag count.

💪

It doesn’t need bagging first

Loose garbage, split bags, an old barbecue and a broken chair on top — you don’t need to sort or re-bag anything before we get there. We load it as it sits.

♻️

Sorted, not just dumped

Anything reusable is donated and recyclables are separated out before the rest goes to the landfill. You get the space back without it all going in a hole.

FAQ

Garbage removal questions

A small load starts at our $135 minimum — or as little as $110 when you book online and add a photo (save up to $25). Beyond that it’s priced by the space it takes in the truck, not by the bag. You get a firm quote before we load anything; HST is additional.
A single-unit home is allowed six bags per collection, and collection runs every two weeks. Buildings of two to six units get four bags per unit. Bags must be clear — one black privacy bag per household is permitted — and none can weigh more than 25 kg. If your situation is unusual, HRM’s What Goes Where tool or a call to 311 will confirm it for your address.
Mostly just the word people use. Junk removal usually means furniture and bulky items; garbage removal usually means bags and loose waste. We do both on the same truck and price them the same way — by the space it takes up. You don’t need to work out which one you’re booking.
For a home, no — we’re a one-off pickup, not a replacement for your municipal collection, and you’re already paying for that through your taxes. For businesses and property managers who need something on a schedule, we do set up recurring pickups — see commercial accounts.
No. Bagged is easier to load, but loose garbage, split bags and mixed piles are all fine — we bring our own equipment and load it as it sits. There’s no need to sort it either; separating what can be recycled or donated is our job, not yours.
No — we don’t do bin or dumpster rental. We show up, load everything ourselves and take it away in one visit, so there’s nothing sitting in your driveway for a week and no permit to arrange. If you genuinely need a container on site for a long project, a bin rental company is the right call.
Often, yes — same-day and next-day pickup across Halifax, Dartmouth, Bedford and the rest of HRM, seven days a week. Call 902-943-8989 or book online for the earliest slot.
Yes, including walk-ups with no elevator — we carry it down, you don’t. Worth checking with your building first, since some have their own bulky-waste arrangement. Clearing a whole unit? See apartment cleanouts.
Not if we can get to it — a driveway, porch, garage or unlocked yard works fine. Leave access instructions when you book and we’ll send the quote and confirmation through.
We can’t take hazardous materials — fuels, solvents, loose chemicals, asbestos or biohazards — and we can’t take bed-bug mattresses. Everything else on a normal clear-out is fair game. See what we don’t take for the full list.
