Quick answer

What items can Bin and Gone remove?

Bin and Gone can review most ordinary household junk, furniture, appliances and non-hazardous cleanout materials that the crew can handle and transport safely. Share photos of bulky, heavy or unusual items before booking. Chemicals, hazardous materials and cinder blocks are not accepted; uncertain materials must be identified and approved before the job is confirmed.

  • Specific project details still need confirmation.
  • Price, timing and handling details are confirmed for your project.
  • Official local rules should be checked when they affect the choice.

Help the team assess safely

Name the material.
Show the access.

A useful estimate request separates ordinary items from anything heavy, sharp, liquid, chemical or difficult to identify. Never mix hazardous substances into an ordinary junk load.

  • List large furniture and appliances separately
  • Mention stairs, elevators, tight turns and long carries
  • Photograph labels on unusual containers without opening them
  • Use Durham's official facilities guidance for household hazardous waste

Project questions

Questions people ask

Start with the quick answer, then check the project detail that can change the right choice.

Check my items
Can you remove a couch, mattress or other furniture from inside?

In-home and curbside pickup are both available for agreed items. Share the item's location, stairs, tight doorways and any especially heavy construction before booking. The team will review whether it can be handled safely, confirm what preparation is needed and include the access requirements in the project scope.

Can Bin and Gone remove old refrigerators or other appliances?

Appliance removal is reviewed case by case. Send the appliance type, location, condition and access details, including stairs or narrow openings. Do not disconnect utilities or move a heavy appliance unless it is safe for you to do so. The team will confirm handling requirements and acceptance before booking.

Where should Clarington residents take paint or household chemicals?

Bin and Gone does not accept chemicals or household hazardous waste. Durham Region says household hazardous waste should not go in regular garbage and can be dropped off at designated facilities. Its official page lists the Clarington Household Special Waste Depot and current preparation rules, limits, locations and hours.
