Need it gone in Canberra?
The short answer
Choose what needs to leave: a mattress, furniture, whitegoods, a whole house, clutter, skip-bin waste or green waste. Each guide compares council collection, charity pickup, drop-off, recycling and commercial removal where they apply, including timing, common exclusions and questions to ask before you book.

- Furniture Give it away first: Goodies Junction at both resource management centres takes anything with reuse value.
- Green waste Timber up to 2 metres on a booked bulky waste collection, at no charge.
- A whole house, cleared Nothing here is free, but Goodies Junction, Vinnies and Salvos take what has reuse value.
- A mattress No free route: every option charges a fee; a charity may take a genuinely as-new one.
- A skip bin A booked bulky waste collection, which is free and takes most of what a small skip would.
- Whitegoods & e-waste The Mitchell or Mugga Lane resource management centre, for televisions, computers and metal appliances.
