A Day in the Life of a 1300ClearOut Rubbish Removal Hero
Ever wondered what it’s like to be a real-life junk removal superhero? At 1300ClearOut, every day brings a new adventure, a new pile of weird and wonderful stuff to haul away, and a whole lot of customer smiles. So grab your gloves and steel-cap boots—we’re diving into a day in the life of one of our team members.
Spoiler alert: it’s more exciting than you’d think!
6:00 AM – Rise, Shine, and Caffeine
The day starts early. Our hero, let’s call him Dave, is up with the kookaburras. By 6:30 AM, he’s in his uniform—hi-vis shirt, sturdy boots, and the all-important wide-brim hat to keep the Queensland sun at bay. A quick coffee (okay, maybe two), and he’s out the door.
7:15 AM – Meet at the Yard
Dave and the crew arrive at 1300ClearOut HQ, located conveniently to service Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, and beyond. The trucks are already lined up, freshly fuelled, and ready to roll.
The team huddles up for a quick briefing: today’s jobs range from a deceased estate clean-up in Logan, a garage cleanout in Ipswich, and a commercial office strip-out in central Brisbane. It’s a mixed bag—just the way they like it.

8:00 AM – First Stop: Estate Clean-Up in Logan
The first job of the day is a deceased estate. These jobs are always handled with care and sensitivity. The crew understands this isn’t just about junk—it’s about memories, family history, and respect.
Dave and his partner load up old furniture, donate usable items to local charities, and sweep up before they leave. The grateful customer gives them a heartfelt thank you, and maybe a Tim Tam or two for the road. Not bad for a morning’s work.

10:30 AM – Garage Cleanout in Ipswich
Next up is a classic: the overstuffed garage. You know the one—home to broken lawnmowers, mystery boxes from 2004, and possibly a bicycle that’s turned into a spider condominium.
Dave and the team expertly sort what’s recyclable, what can be donated, and what needs to go. No skips, no mess, and no effort from the homeowner. One hour later, that garage is transformed.

1:00 PM – Lunch and Laughs
Lunchtime means meat pies, Gatorade, and some good banter. The team takes a break at a local park and swaps stories about the most bizarre things they’ve ever removed. (Top contenders: a collection of antique mannequin heads and a bathtub full of marbles.)
2:00 PM – Commercial Strip-Out in Brisbane
The final job is a commercial strip-out. It’s a large office space that’s getting a full revamp, and 1300ClearOut is there to remove desks, cubicle walls, carpets, and even a dodgy-looking office fridge.
This one’s a full-team effort. They work efficiently, loading the truck with recyclable materials and keeping safety front of mind. The project manager on-site is impressed—so much so, he says, “You guys saved us two days of work!”

4:30 PM – Back to Base
With the trucks full and the customers happy, the crew heads back to base. The waste is sorted—recyclables, donations, landfill—and responsibly disposed of. At 1300ClearOut, eco-friendly junk removal isn’t just a buzzword; it’s part of the mission.

5:30 PM – Clock Off, Feet Up
After a big day, Dave clocks off, heads home, and soaks his sore feet. It’s hard work, but it’s worth it. The team made a difference to three different people today—and that’s something to be proud of.
Plus, there’s a rumour someone found a vintage record player in that Ipswich garage and is now the proud owner of a mint-condition Bee Gees vinyl.
Why Our Team Loves the Job
Working at 1300ClearOut isn’t just about lifting heavy things (though there’s plenty of that). It’s about:
- Helping people declutter and move forward
- Seeing instant results from your hard work
- Never having the same day twice
- Getting outside and staying active
- Having a few good laughs along the way
And let’s be honest—there’s something very satisfying about turning chaos into clean space.
