Cleaning up of bushfire-affected areas

Properties damaged by bushfire can be dangerous and can contain risks not normally present on a construction site. The NSW Government’s free clean-up service is available to all insured and uninsured residences and businesses affected by bushfire.

Home owners, businesses and building professionals may decide to undertake clean-up operations themselves. But they should be aware that removing waste from a bushfire-affected property may affect their registration and their eligibility to use the government’s clean-up service.

Links are provided in this resource to further safety information made available by WorkSafe NSW and to a clean-up registration page on the Service NSW website.
