We strive to make waste management as convenient as possible by offering same-day drop-off for skip bins whenever availability allows. However, to avoid disappointment and ensure you get the right bin at the right time, we highly recommend booking 1-2 days in advance. This helps us guarantee that your bin will be delivered on your preferred day and time, especially during busy periods like weekends, public holidays or peak renovation seasons.

Planning ahead also gives you peace of mind, ensuring that your project stays on schedule without delays. Whether you're clearing out your garage or managing a construction site, we’ll work with you to find the best delivery window.

Our skip bins are designed to handle a wide range of waste, but some items are restricted for safety, environmental and legal reasons. 

Here's a breakdown of what is and isn’t allowed:

What You Can Put in a Skip Bin

• General Household Waste – Furniture, appliances, clothes, toys and other non-hazardous items
• Building & Renovation Materials – Timber, metal, tiles, concrete and bricks
• Green Waste – Grass clippings, leaves, branches and other garden debris
• Furniture & Appliances – Old couches, tables, fridges, washing machines and similar items
• Clothes & Textiles – Old garments, bedding and fabrics

What You Can’t Put in a Skip Bin

• Asbestos – Requires a special asbestos bin; call us to arrange
• Hazardous Waste – Chemicals, solvents and toxic substances
• Gas Bottles & Fire Extinguishers – Must be disposed of separately through designated services
• Tyres – Cannot be accepted due to disposal regulations
• Batteries & E-Waste – Must be recycled through specialised facilities

If you're unsure about any item, call us on 0437 426 935. We’ll advise you on proper disposal methods or arrange alternative solutions where possible. This ensures your waste is managed safely and in compliance with environmental regulations.

When you hire a skip bin, two weeks are included in the initial cost, giving you plenty of time to complete your cleanout, renovation or construction project. If you need the bin for longer, you can easily extend the hire period at a rate of $25 per additional week. This flexible option ensures you won’t feel rushed, allowing you to complete your work at your own pace.

We understand that some projects take longer than expected, so if you anticipate needing the bin beyond the two-week period, just let us know in advance so we can arrange an extension. This helps us ensure the bin is available for you without interruption. Whether you’re clearing out your home or managing waste from a construction site, our affordable weekly extension keeps your project on track without unnecessary stress.

If you have any questions about hire periods or need to extend your rental, contact us—we’re happy to help!

We offer three skip bin sizes to cater to a variety of waste disposal needs, ensuring you only pay for the space you need. Whether you’re doing a small household cleanout, tackling a garden project or managing a larger renovation or construction job, we have the right size for you.

• 2m³ – Ideal for small cleanups, such as garage decluttering, yard waste or minor renovation debris.
• 4m³ – Perfect for mid-sized projects, like kitchen or bathroom renovations, spring cleaning or clearing out larger household items.
• 8m³ – Best suited for big jobs, including construction site waste, full home cleanouts or large-scale renovations.

Not sure which size is right? Check out our Skip Size Guide for a detailed breakdown of what each bin can hold, helping you estimate your needs. Call us on 0437 426 935 if you need advice—we’re happy to help you choose the right bin for your project.

To ensure safe transport and compliance with legal regulations, the waste must not exceed the "Do Not Fill Above Rim" line marked on the skip bin. Overfilling can create hazards during transportation, increasing the risk of materials falling out, causing accidents or leading to fines during transit.

Keeping the load level ensures the bin can be securely covered and safely transported without endangering drivers, pedestrians or other road users. If the bin is overfilled, we may not be able to collect it until the excess is removed, causing unnecessary delays.

For peace of mind, evenly distribute your waste within the bin and keep bulky or heavy items below the rim. If you’re unsure how much space you need, call us on 0437 426 935, and we’ll help you select the right bin size to avoid overfilling issues.

We offer convenient payment options to make the process as smooth as possible. You can pay using EFTPOS upon delivery or pick-up of the skip bin, ensuring a hassle-free transaction. Alternatively, we can issue an invoice, which must be paid before the bin is collected to avoid any delays in service.

For builders and tradespeople, we also provide the option to set up a 30-day account, making it easier to manage ongoing projects without worrying about immediate payments. This account option is ideal for contractors managing multiple jobs or those with long-term projects. If you're interested in setting up an account, contact us directly, and we’ll walk you through the process.

No matter your payment preference, we aim to provide flexible and reliable service that fits your needs and keeps your project running smoothly.
