Whether you have an overflow of household rubbish that won’t fit in your bin, or a pile of junk that has been sitting in your yard for months, an excess of rubbish on your property is not just an eyesore; it can be dangerous!

With so many rubbish collection services in Wellington, there is no excuse for allowing trash and junk to build up on your property. To drive this message home, we’ll provide you with various reasons why overflowing rubbish can be hazardous.

Risk Of Injury

If you have sharp, broken or rusty objects lying around in your garden, this is an obvious hazard. Tripping and falling over these types of objects can result in unnecessary injury. Rusty and sharp junk in your garden are especially hazardous to children who like to run and play in the garden.

Air Pollution

Overflowing rubbish may cause air pollution that may negatively affect those with underlying respiratory issues. In fact, certain types of rubbish can even cause respiratory issues and other types of illness. You may not connect the fact that your illness directly results from the excess trash on your property.

Attracts Stray Animals

Rubbish may attract stray animals such as cats, dogs and rats. These animals may cause damage to your property, interfere with your pets, and even be dangerous or rabid. This is why it is so important to get any excess rubbish off your property as quickly as possible.

Breeding Ground For Bacteria

Trash in trash bags creates a warm environment that is ideal for the breeding of bacteria and insects. This is certainly not something that you want anywhere near your home!

Leaking Of Toxic Substances

Certain types of trash (such as broken fridges and freezers) can leak toxic substances. Not only is this a health hazard to you and your family, but it can really damage the quality of your soil and have a negative effect on the health of your plants.
