Shed and Garage Cleanouts Melbourne
Get your garage and shed back
We clear the lot, from tools and old furniture to the shed itself, and sort it for reuse and recycling where suitable.
Garage and Shed Cleanouts
A garage cleanout service that does the lifting for you
Garages and sheds tend to fill up a little at a time, with a broken appliance one year and a stack of moving boxes the next, until the car no longer fits and you can’t find the tools you need.
Red Rabbit clears it in one visit. We carry everything out ourselves, sort what can be donated or recycled, and sweep the floor before we leave, so nothing needs to be dragged to the kerb.
If the shed itself has had its day, we can take that down and remove it as part of the same job.

What We Clear
What we take from sheds and garages
Tools, bikes and sporting gear
Old tools, bikes, golf clubs and gym equipment are loaded and sorted, with metal items recycled where possible.
Boxes and stored belongings
Years of boxes, books and odds and ends are cleared, and anything still useful is donated where suitable.
Old furniture and mattresses
Couches, wardrobes, bed frames and mattresses stored in your garage are carried out, and good pieces are donated where suitable.
Whitegoods and e-waste
Old fridges, freezers, TVs and computers are loaded up and taken to the right recycling stream where possible.
Garden gear and green waste
Pots, hoses, old garden tools and bags of prunings are cleared from your shed, and the green waste goes to recycling.
Timber, metal and building leftovers
Offcuts, old doors, sheet metal and leftover renovation materials are loaded, including the heavy and awkward pieces.
Shed dismantling and removal
An old shed can be emptied, taken down and removed in the same job, with the slab or ground left clear.
Deceased estates and downsizing
When a family home is being cleared, the shed and garage are handled with care alongside the rest of the house.
Shed Removal and Demolition
Shed removal in Melbourne, from clear-out to clean slab
If your shed is rusted, leaning or simply in the way, we can empty it, dismantle it and take every piece away, along with old fences and small structures.
In Northcote, we cleared and removed an unstable shed that formed part of a shared boundary, working with the neighbours and protecting their properties. The job took two and a half days and left the yard ready for new tenants.
Older sheds made from fibro sheeting can contain asbestos, which we don’t handle. Send us a photo first and Denny will let you know what’s involved.

Tell us what's in the garage, and the lifting, loading and sorting is done for you.

Shed demolition and removal in Preston
This old corrugated iron shed sat at the back of a Preston backyard, under a tree at the end of the driveway. Red Rabbit took it down, loaded it onto the truck and took it away, leaving the concrete slab clear.

Denny is an absolutely star!!! I often arrange rubbish removal for my clients and the positive feedback has always been overwhelming. Not only does Denny do a great job at a reasonable price, he is super pleasant to work with and always turns up when he says he will. I cannot recommend him highly enough.Posted on Google![]()

We used Red Rabbit three times in the last six months to help clear out our old family house with its 50 years of “all sorts of stuff”. The initial drawcard and point of difference was their website promise to recycle so much of the goods (to places like St Vinnies or their local womens shelter). Meeting Denny and then watching he and Mikey expertly pack the big truck like Tetris ninjas proved they are absolutely genuine in this claim. More to the point, Denny is a down-to-earth legend of a bloke. He is old school honest as the day is long, a great communicator, and his small business is one that you just want to support. The pricing was extremely fair on all occasions, and it worked out significantly cheaper than hiring a skip (which we had done a couple times before going down this path). If we ever need a big removal project agoin, he will always be our absolute first port of call. These google ratings do not lie. Do yourself a favour!Posted on Google![]()

Denny and Mikey were excellent help and I would highly recommend. Great with communication and co-ordinating a collection, turned up bang on time, smashed through getting the work done and cost was exactly in line with estimate. Made sure everything went smoothly and would not hesitate to recomend to other or use them again. Great job, thank you.Posted on Google![]()

Why Red Rabbit
Why choose Red Rabbit for your shed or garage cleanout?
Red Rabbit is a small, hands-on team led by Denny, clearing sheds and garages across Melbourne.
Nothing to drag to the kerb
Everything is carried out from inside your shed or garage, so nothing has to sit on the nature strip waiting for a pick-up.
The shed can go too
If the shed needs to come down, it can be dismantled and removed in the same job as the clear-out.
No skip bin or permit
Your rubbish goes straight onto the truck, so there's no bin sitting on your driveway and no permit to organise.
Landfill is the last resort
Usable furniture and tools are donated where suitable, and metals, e-waste and green waste are separated for recycling.
You deal with Denny
Denny quotes your job, turns up when he says he will and works on the job with the team.
More than 100 five-star Google reviews
Homeowners, renters, property managers and local businesses have been reviewing Red Rabbit on Google for years.

FAQs
Shed and garage cleanout questions
How much does a garage cleanout cost?
Your price depends on how much there is, how easy it is to get to and what’s in the load. Send us a few photos of the space and your suburb, and you’ll get an obligation-free quote.
Can you remove the shed as well?
Yes. Your old shed can be emptied, dismantled and taken away in the same job, and we can remove old fences and small structures too. Send us a photo and Denny will let you know what’s involved.
Do I need to move everything out first?
No. The team carries everything out from inside your shed or garage, including heavy and awkward items, so you don’t need to move anything to the front.
Is there anything you can't take?
We can’t take hazardous waste such as asbestos, chemicals or fuel. Older sheds made from fibro sheeting can contain asbestos, so if you’re unsure about anything in your shed, send us a photo first.
What happens to tools and furniture that still work?
Where it’s suitable, your usable tools, furniture and household goods are donated, and metals, e-waste and green waste go to recycling, so landfill is the last resort.
How long does a shed or garage cleanout take?
It depends on how much there is and how easy it is to reach. Denny will give you an idea of timing when he quotes, and bigger jobs like taking down a shed on a shared boundary can take a couple of days.
Do I need to be home?
It helps to have someone there at the start to show the team what’s going and what’s staying. Once that’s clear, the team can get on with the job.
Can you clear a shed or garage when a family home is being sold?
Yes. Sheds and garages are often the last part of a house clearance or deceased estate, and we clear them with the same care as the rest of the home.
