Garden waste removal in Ballina
Coastal gardens grow all year, and one good weekend of cutting produces more than any bin cycle can move. We load palm fronds, hedge trimmings, overgrowth and whole-yard cleanups at $100 per cubic metre, keep the green material separate on the truck and put it through the right stream at the tip.
Why keep garden waste separate from general rubbish?
Because the weighbridge treats them very differently. Garden waste and clippings under 300mm cost $8.90 per 100 kilograms at the Ballina tip, while mixed household waste costs $34.60 for the same weight. Keeping your pile green keeps its disposal in the cheap stream, and we sort it that way.
Do you take stumps, logs and heavier timber?
Yes, cut and on the ground. The tip prices stumps and logs over 300mm at $14.60 per 100 kilograms, so flag them in your photos and the fixed quote covers them. We are the removal end, not the tree fellers.
Is the weekly FOGO bin not enough?
For everyday clippings it is good, and Ballina's FOGO service runs weekly. A one-off attack on an overgrown yard is a different scale. When the pile is measured in trailer loads rather than bin loads, one truck visit clears in an hour what bins move in a season.

Garden waste: quick answers
Is garden waste cheaper to get rid of than general rubbish?
Much cheaper, when it stays separate. The Ballina tip charges garden waste under 300mm at $8.90 per 100 kilograms against $34.60 for mixed waste. We keep green loads unmixed on the truck so your quote reflects the cheaper stream.
Do you take palm fronds, hedge trimmings and vines?
All of it, plus lawn clippings, garden-bed clear-outs and overgrowth pulled off fences. Stumps and logs over 300mm are welcome too and are priced honestly, since the tip charges them at $14.60 per 100 kilograms.
My FOGO bin is always full. Is a truck load worth it?
For a one-off cleanup, yes. The weekly FOGO bin handles everyday clippings, but an overgrown yard produces trailer loads, not bin loads. One visit at $100 per cubic metre clears in an hour what the bin would move in a season.
