Types of rubbish we generally find

Who does not want to keep his interiors scrupulously clean? Nowadays there is equally tremendous inclination to keep the neighborhood clean and hygienic. Therefore, contacting the rubbish removal service providers from time to time for removing garbage and junk has become a part of our regular work.

But an amusing thing is that majority of us do not have a clear idea of what is rubbish in actual sense! Some people believe that plastics and papers accumulate together to become rubbish, while others think that vegetable wastes are known as rubbish.

So, before you call a service provider offering rubbish removal Sydney, Durban or the place you stay know about the things which are considered as rubbish.

·         Green rubbish

If you have a garden in your locality, you will see that the maintenance workers accumulate together dry leaves, grass, twigs, discarded soil, etc. after their maintenance work. These wastes are known as green rubbish. A good thing about green rubbish is that it is biodegradable and gets mixed with soil to become manure.

·         Recyclable rubbish

Some wastes do not overburden the landfills as they can be recycled and reused. Waste paper, tissues and cotton are some of the recyclable junk Sydney, London, etc. which are collected and processed for reuse.  Some type of metals, glasses, plastics also fall under this category.

·         Junked furniture

We often discard the old and broken chairs and worn out dining tables and sofa sets from our interiors which cease to be of any further use. These become junks after some time unless and until we make efforts to repair and reuse them or sell them off at discounted prices. Since furniture are mostly made from hardwood, green wood, plywood, steel and wrought iron so they can be processed and made usable again. So, their disposal does not cause any harm to the ecosystem.

·         Household waste

All kinds of rubbish which are generated from homes fall under the category of household waste. This category can include kitchen junks like vegetable wastes, fruit feels, leftover food, discarded mops and wash linens, etc. Household wastes also include things like discarded battery, papers, broken toys, abandoned cooking utensils, etc. Thus, the wastes under this category include both biodegradable as well as non-biodegradable materials.

·         Building waste

If you have witnessed a building demolition act, you must have noticed the wastes the process generates.  The chief building wastes include broken bricks and concrete slabs, pieces of plaster of Paris chunks, asbestos, fibro, etc.  Since building wastes like bricks, concrete and plaster of Paris break down further with time and mix readily with soil so they do not cause health disorders. But asbestos can cause serious contaminations!
