Licence cleanups before inspections create declutter piles that mix soft goods, packaging and small furniture.
Short term rental licence cleanups
Donate first. Recycle cardboard. Pull stewardship items next.
Host city placement
A driveway or yard placement needs no permit. When the suite is in Vancouver, a bin on the street, boulevard or lane needs a City permit. Host cities outside Vancouver need their own City check before a street drop.
Inspection timing
Schedule the haul so the suite is clear before the inspection window. Keep loads level and restricted items out.
When a bin fits
We bring the bin to you and haul it away when you are finished. You handle the loading. Our 20-yard junk bin is the usual place to start. We also have a 15-yard bin, but it is often sold out, so ask when you book.
Skip batteries, electronics, propane tanks, paint, solvents, pharmaceuticals and asbestos when you load a junk bin. Search Metro Vancouver Recycles or call 604 732 9253 if you are unsure.
Use our disposal bins and what not to put in a bin pages for standing limits. See our Vancouver street permit page when the job is in Vancouver.
FAQ
What should I clear before a rental inspection? Separate reusable furnishings and clean cardboard first. Remove restricted products and arrange pickup before the inspection window.
What size bin should I start with? For most jobs, begin with the 20-yard junk bin. Ask when booking about other sizes. The 15-yard is often sold out.
Do I need a permit on my driveway? No. A driveway or yard needs no permit. Street, boulevard or lane rules depend on your City. Tell us permit dates if a street drop is approved.
Where do I check an item I am unsure about? Search the regional recycling directory or call the Recycling Hotline at 604 732 9253. Do not guess on paint, batteries, electronics or chemicals.
Can asbestos ever go in a Trash King bin? No. Asbestos is never permitted in any Trash King bin. Use a licensed abatement contractor when asbestos is present.
