Lismore has faced extraordinary challenges since the 2022 floods, and waste removal has been a critical part of the city’s recovery. Northern Removals has been supporting Lismore residents by clearing flood-damaged furniture, waterlogged belongings, contaminated materials, and general debris from properties across the city — from South Lismore’s hardest-hit streets to the CBD around Keen Street and The Quad.

Our Tyagarah depot is approximately 45 minutes from Lismore, and we service the city regularly. We handle all types of waste removal — flood debris, household junk, renovation materials, green waste, and commercial waste. Our team approaches every Lismore job with sensitivity, understanding that many residents are dealing with the emotional weight of losing belongings to floodwaters.

Beyond flood recovery, Lismore generates standard waste removal needs. The city’s university community (Southern Cross University) means student share houses need clearing at the end of each academic year. Established suburbs like Girards Hill and East Lismore have older homes where decades of belongings accumulate. And the CBD’s commercial properties require ongoing waste management.

Wilson River runs through the heart of Lismore, and we are experienced with the unique waste challenges this creates — mud-caked furniture, water-damaged appliances, and contaminated soft furnishings that require careful handling and appropriate disposal.

We are committed to Lismore’s recovery and future. Every load is sorted for recycling, salvageable items are offered to community organisations, and we work with council guidelines for the disposal of flood-affected materials. Lismore is rebuilding, and we are proud to play our part.
