There are a number of situations in which it might be useful to engage the services of one of your local rubbish removal companies. Here are a couple of examples of situations in which this service can be helpful.

You are clearing out a home that belongs to someone with a hoarding problem

If you have a friend or a relative who suffers from a hoarding problem and they need your help to clear out the unwanted items from their home, then it is definitely a good idea to get in touch with a rubbish removal business in your area.

The reason for this is as follows; if you allow the discarded items you have removed from the property to pile up outside, with the intention of taking them to the landfill at the end of this process, there is a chance that the owner of the house (i.e. the person with the hoarding problem) may be tempted to rifle through these items and sneak some of them back into their home.

This is a very common issue that hoarders encounter when trying to clear out their properties, as this mental illness often creates extremely powerful compulsions to keep possessions, regardless of how unnecessary or damaged those possessions happen to be.

As such, even if the person you are helping tells you that they genuinely want to sort out their home, their compulsive need to hoard may still lead to them trying to secretly keep some of the discarded goods. However, you can minimise the risk of this happening by arranging for a rubbish removal service to collect the rubbish that accumulates at the end of each day of the project.

This will ensure that even if the hoarder does have second thoughts and feel the urge to keep items that they previously agreed to throw away, the rubbish collection service will have taken those items away before he or she gets a chance to sneak them back into the property.

You are performing renovation work on your home and you do not own a car

If you will be performing renovation work on your home and you do not own a car, then it is definitely worth paying a rubbish removals service to pick up the debris that this process will inevitably generate.

The reason for this is as follows; if you don't have a vehicle that you can use to transport this rubbish to a landfill, you won't have any way to remove this refuse from your property (as it will probably be too bulky and hazardous to be placed in your normal household refuse bins).

This could lead to this rubbish being left in a pile in your garden or garage for several weeks until you can either hire a vehicle or arrange for a friend who owns a car to get rid of the rubbish for you. This could be frustrating, as this rubbish will take up valuable storage space on your property.

In this situation, it would be sensible to have the refuse picked up by a rubbish removal business immediately after your renovation project is finished.
