Check the guide on the SKIP BIN SIZES page, look at the photo to estimate if your waste will fit. If that doesn’t help, just ask us, we can estimate what you will need by speaking to you over the phone.
So long as the bin is ordered before 12 noon, we can generally have a bin delivered to you on the same day.
Our standard hire period is 10 days.

So long as you avoid the “What is not permitted in the bin” items, the list is endless, but here are a few examples:
General Waste
Most household clean up waste, cardboard, renovation waste, clothes, books, toys, old furniture, carpet, white goods, boxes, etc.
Green Waste
Garden prunings, grass clippings, bark, wood, palm leaves, etc.
Solid Waste

We can collect the bin sooner if required. Call us and we can tailor our service to suit your needs.
Within the Brisbane City Council area we can, so long as it does not obstruct access or cover any pits (Telstra, Energex etc).
Please note: Skip bins can not be placed on the nature strip in the Gold Coast district.
