Scrap metal pickup in Tea Tree Gully, and what comes out of it

Tea Tree Gully is the longest trip on our north-east run at about fifteen minutes, up where the suburbs meet the hills face.

Tea Tree Gully was one of the seven early villages of the district, alongside Houghton, Hope Valley, Highbury, Modbury, Golden Grove and Inglewood. Serious development did not arrive until the 1950s, residential building exploded through the 1960s, and the council area is now at the end of its large-scale residential land release rather than the start of it.

An area that has stopped expanding starts renovating instead, and that is what we see here. Tea Tree Gully work is mostly replacement rather than demolition: hot water systems, split systems going in where a ducted unit came out, roofing on the older houses, and sheds being cleared out after decades. The blocks back on to the hills face so access can be tight and steep, which is worth mentioning when you call so we bring the right vehicle.

A lot of Tea Tree Gully blocks sit on the hills face, which means steep driveways, tight turning circles and occasionally no turning circle at all. This is the one suburb where telling us about access before we leave the yard genuinely changes which vehicle arrives. Sheds up here have often not been emptied in decades, so allow more time than you think you need.

It is up North East Road and then east, and because it is the far end of the run we normally book Tea Tree Gully pickups for a set day rather than same-day.

Frequently asked questions - Tea Tree Gully

Is Tea Tree Gully too far for a free pickup?

No. It is about fifteen minutes from Holden Hill, the furthest suburb on this run, and it is still free. We will usually give you a day rather than a same-morning slot.

My driveway is steep and narrow. Is that a problem?

Tell us when you call and it is not. A lot of Tea Tree Gully blocks sit on the hills face with tight access, and we would rather bring the right vehicle than turn up in the wrong one.

Is there still much demolition work in Tea Tree Gully?

Less than you would think. The council area is at the end of its big residential land release rather than the start, so the work up here is replacement rather than demolition. Hot water systems, split systems going in where ducted came out, roofing on the older houses, and sheds nobody has emptied in thirty years.

Can you get a truck up my Tea Tree Gully driveway?

Sometimes, which is why we ask first. On the hills face the driveways get steep and the turning circles get tight, and a truck that cannot turn around is worse than no truck. Describe the driveway when you call and we will bring whatever fits, including a ute and trailer if that is what it takes.

Is there a minimum load for Tea Tree Gully?

No minimum, but be realistic about the trip. Fifteen minutes each way for a single tap is not worth either of our time, so if it is small hold it until you have a pile or until we are already booked in up your way. A shed clear-out is always worth the run.
