Junk Removal on Hisingen

Preparing for your junk removal on Hisingen

You don't really need to do much at all – our young workers handle the heavy work. But if you want to speed things up and keep the cost down, there are a few simple things you can do:

Clear a path (about 1 metre wide) from the entrance to the items that need to go. If you live in a villa in Torslanda, Björlanda, Kärra or Tuve, it helps if we can reverse onto the driveway – let us know if a gate or garage door needs opening. If you live in an apartment at Lindholmen, Eriksberg, Backa or Biskopsgården, check whether there is a loading zone, courtyard or visitor parking near the entrance we can use.

Gather the items in one place if possible, for example in the hallway, garage or storage unit. You don't need to disassemble furniture – we include that in our service if needed. We cannot take hazardous waste such as paint, batteries and chemicals, but as a Gothenburg resident you can drop those off for free at the Bulycke or Tagene recycling centre.

Districts and areas we cover on Hisingen

We perform junk removal across the whole of Hisingen – from the new waterfront quarters to the 'miljonprogram' and the villa areas. Whether you live in a new apartment at Lindholmen, a townhouse in Kärra, a villa in Torslanda or a house in Brämaregården, we can be on site, often the same day.

In Lundby – with Lindholmen, Eriksberg, Sannegården, Kvillebäcken, Brämaregården and Wieselgrensplatsen – we are highly experienced with apartment pickups via elevator and stairwell, both in the newly built quarters on the old shipyard sites and in the older landshövdingehus housing. In Västra Hisingen we meet Biskopsgården and Länsmansgården as well as the growing villa areas of Torslanda, Amhult and Björlanda near the sea.

We are just as quick in Norra Hisingen: Backa and Backaplan, Kärra, Skogome, Tuve, Säve and Brunnsbo. Thanks to the proximity of Lundbyleden, Hisingsleden and the island's bridges and tunnels, we always plan the route in advance so you don't have to wait. No extra charges for any district.

Recycling and environmental responsibility on Hisingen

An important part of our junk removal on Hisingen is that everything is handled in an environmentally responsible way. We sort the materials and drive them to approved recycling centres. In Gothenburg, waste is handled by Kretslopp och vatten, and Hisingen has the big advantage that two of the city's stations are on the island:

Bulycke recycling centre in Västra Hisingen – rebuilt with a strong focus on reuse, where Human Bridge, Stadsmissionen and Emmaus Björkå receive items for reuse, in addition to sorted bulky waste, e-waste and hazardous waste. Tagene recycling centre in Norra Hisingen – for jobs in the northern parts. Because both are on Hisingen, the waste doesn't have to be driven across the river, which keeps travel time – and therefore the cost – down.

Items that can be reused are donated to organisations like Stadsmissionen and Emmaus. This way, your junk removal contributes to a circular economy – items get a new life instead of ending up in landfill.

If the items are transported to a charity shop or organisation for reuse, you may be eligible for the Swedish RUT tax deduction on the labour cost. Standard junk removal where everything goes to a recycling station does not qualify. The deduction is handled directly on the invoice.
