In Aalst (9300), Sparkling Services fills the gap when the municipal bulky waste collection is not enough: more volume, little time, or items that need carrying from upstairs or dismantling. Collection from your home, sorting and recycling through suitable channels (recycling parks, sorting centres), and it can all happen while you are away.
Junk removal in Aalst: our approach
In Aalst, the intercommunale ILvA runs the recycling parks and waste collection, with its own sorting and volume rules for bulky waste. In practice, you often have to load the car yourself or wait for a collection and put items out in front of the door. Our service is for people who would rather have a crew handle everything: an old lounge suite in a house in the centre, the appliances from a flat near the station or garden furniture in Hofstade. We carry, load and sort on site, and anything still in good condition goes to social-economy organisations. The rest follows appropriate recycling channels.
End of building work, a move or new furniture delivered in Aalst: you can group several items into one collection to keep the travel cost down. We also collect from a cellar, a loft or a garden. If you are not there, a key or an agreed access is enough, and you receive a photo once everything has gone.
Junk removal in Aalst: loading and truck access
ILvA, the intercommunal for the Aalst area and the Dender valley, accepts households' bulky waste at its recycling parks and offers a collection on its own terms. Those options assume a car, a trailer or patience. Our service is for anyone who wants a hassle-free removal: a worn mattress, a broken washing machine, a sideboard too heavy to shift, a batch of chairs after a move. We estimate the volume from photos or a visit, quote a fixed amount and book a time slot. Large pieces are taken apart on site and strapped into the truck, with walls and door frames left unmarked. On carnival parade days, we stay out of the town centre. Anything still usable goes to social-economy organisations, depending on what they accept; everything else goes to appropriate recycling channels, never to an ILvA park.
Junk removal in Aalst: the centre, the Dender and Erembodegem
In the centre, many houses have a shop on the ground floor and a home upstairs, with a separate door and a steep staircase. The junk often comes from the attic, used as a storeroom for years; we agree the timing with the shopkeeper if access is shared, and the shop can usually stay open.
Around the station and along the Dender, workers' houses with no garage entrance mean everything leaves through the front door; the parking ban is then requested from the City a few days ahead, giving the address and duration.
In Erembodegem, Hofstade or Baardegem, detached houses with sheds and garden stores yield a different kind of item: tools, wood, outdoor furniture, old bikes. Herdersem, Gijzegem and Nieuwerkerken are usually easy to load. During the carnival days the centre is avoided, but a pick-up in an outlying village remains possible.
Does the whole house need clearing rather than a few bulky items? See our house clearance Aalst page.
