• According to a 2024 cost guide, typical rubbish removal services in Australia charge about $80 to $150 per cubic metre (m³), depending on volume, rubbish type and location.

• Another source cites a range of A$80–100/m³ specifically for Brisbane rubbish removal.

• Skip-bin hire (as an alternative to full-service removal) in Brisbane gives a rough comparison: a 3 m³ bin hire starts around A$380, 4 m³ from approx. A$470, and 6 m³ from approx. A$650 (though skip bins generally require the user to load everything).

• More recent data for skip-bins shows for general waste: ~2 m³ bins cost A$150–250 per hire, 4 m³ bins A$250–350, 6 m³ bins A$350–450 per week — though these are for self-load bins.

What This Means for Rubbish Removal Pricing

From those market benchmarks and comparing to skip-bin hire, we can derive a few insights:

• Volume-based pricing (per m³) remains the standard or expectation for “service-level” rubbish removal (i.e. you come, load, remove).

• The low end (~A$50–70/m³) tends to be for simple waste / light junk; higher rates (~A$100–150/m³) apply where labour, heavy items or special disposal is involved.

• Given skip-bin hire costs (plus customer effort to load themselves), full-service rubbish removal — assuming convenience, labour, disposal fees — can justify a per-m³ rate toward the upper-mid of the market (because customers pay for convenience).

• For small loads (e.g. single mattress, single fridge) skip-bins are often overkill — full-service removal should be more competitive for convenience.
