Common questions

What size skip bin do most homes need?

A 4m3 bin suits a typical garage clean-out or small renovation. It is the most commonly hired size in Australia and usually the best value per cubic metre.

Can I put soil or concrete in a normal skip?

Not in a general waste bin. Heavy materials need a dedicated heavy-waste bin priced by weight, otherwise you risk an overweight surcharge.

Do I need a permit for a skip bin?

Only if the bin goes on council land such as the street or verge. On your own driveway no permit is needed.
