Service 01 · Clutter Collection · Free

Free clutter collection, done properly

How it works. You book online, we confirm on WhatsApp with the next available slot, and on the day we rock up with the bakkie and trailer. You point — we load. No awkward conversations, no surprise fees.

What we take. Furniture (that fits on a bakkie or small trailer), kitchenware, books, toys, décor, sports gear and tools — almost anything still useful to someone else. Sleeper couch, piano or full house clear-out? Message first and we'll bring a bigger trailer or point you in the right direction.

What we don't take. Municipal refuse, builder's rubble, hazardous chemicals and paint. Dead fridges, broken microwaves and garage clear-outs belong on the Junk service. Cuttings and prunings belong on the Garden Waste service — both covered below.

What happens next. We sort everything at our base. Useful items go to local charities or onward sale that funds them. Nothing usable goes to waste.

Why free? Because the value sits in the stuff itself. Onward sales fund the local charities we support — and three brothers learning how to run a real business along the way.

Service 02 · For the tech drawer

Old phones, laptops & tablets — safely handled

E-waste is the fastest-growing waste stream in the world, and it's piling up in South African homes too — that drawer of dead phones, tangled chargers and that laptop from 2014 you keep meaning to deal with. We come and collect it all, for free.

Old devices contain heavy metals and other materials that really shouldn't end up in a landfill — and the storage inside them needs proper wiping before they go anywhere. That's the bit most people get stuck on, and it's exactly what we sort out for you.

What we accept

  • Phones
  • Laptops
  • Tablets
  • Monitors
  • Hard drives
  • Cables & chargers

How collection works. E-waste piggy-backs on a normal Clutter Collection booking — no separate visit needed. Just mention it when you book, or pop it on the trailer on the day.

Data security. Every device with storage is securely wiped before it goes anywhere. Want the drive physically destroyed instead? Just ask — we'll do it in front of you.

Refurb-first. Devices we can revive get a second life with someone who needs one. The rest go to a certified e-waste recycler.

What we don't take. Big white goods (fridges, washing machines, dishwashers) and old CRT TVs need a specialist — mention them when you book and we'll point you at the right people.

Service 03 · Got something valuable?

We sell it. You earn.

Some things are too good to donate but you just don't have the time (or patience) to sell them. That's where we come in. Send us a photo, we tell you what we think we can fetch, and if you're happy — we handle the rest.

When it sells, we split the proceeds with you. Easy money, no Marketplace messages, no time-wasters at your gate.

Step 1

Step 2

List & sell

Step 3

Split the proceeds

What's a good fit. Working electronics, brand-name homeware, tools, bikes, collectibles, and quality furniture in good nick. Basically: things people actively search for second-hand.

What isn't. Very low-value items — those are usually better donated through our standard collection so they help a charity directly.

How the split works. We agree on a guide price up front, you decide if you're happy, and once it sells the proceeds are split — simple as that.

Straight talk. If we don't think we can sell it, we'll tell you straight — no point wasting anyone's time.

Services 04 & 05 · Junk & Garden Waste · Priced per load

Junk removal & garden waste collection across the Helderberg

Two paid services, quoted per load — because a broken chair and a whole-garage clear-out aren't the same job. Send a 15-second video through the booking form and we'll WhatsApp you a fair quote, usually within a few hours. No paid site visit, no back-and-forth.

1

Record

On your phone: open the booking form, tap Record video, walk a slow lap around the pile. 15 seconds is plenty.

2

Add your address and hit send. No account, no back-and-forth, no site visit needed.

We reply on WhatsApp

Usually within a few hours: a fair quote, an honest yes or no, and the next available slot.

Junk removal

Junk, not refuse — priced per load, quoted from your video.

Broken furniture, dead appliances, old electronics, garage and shed clear-outs, the mystery pile behind the pool pump. If it fits on a bakkie or trailer, we'll load it.

  • Broken or unwanted furniture
  • Old appliances (small & mid-size)
  • Garage, shed & attic clear-outs
  • Sorted, resold, donated or recycled — never dumped

We're not the municipal refuse truck — for household black-bag waste and builder's rubble, your normal collection service or the local drop-off is the right call.

Greenwaste collection

Garden day sorted — priced per load, quoted from your video.

  • Cuttings, prunings & lawn clippings
  • Palm fronds & small branches
  • Post-gardener clean-ups
  • Composted, not dumped
