Bin Loading Tips

Get the most out of your skip bin

  • When loading old refrigerators, dryers or other large home appliances, utilise the most of these by placing waste in them to maximise space in the skip bin
  • By breaking up your waste into small pieces if possible, you can get more! Things like old furniture can usually be broken up quite easily.
  • Try to leave as little air in the bin by stacking carefully, if you just throw stuff in without trying to leave space between rubbish the bin will not take as much waste as it could.
  • Select the correct size bin, just measure or estimate your waste pile and try our bin size calculator

Vegetation Loading Tips

  • Maximising your cubic metres with loading your vegetation into the skip bin, the smaller it is shortened or cut down to more manageable pieces you will ideally have more space in the skip bin

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL SKIP BIN HIRERS

  • It is illegal to transport a waste container loaded beyond its dimensional limits. That means you cannot fill the skip bin above the "water line" which is the top rim of the skip bin. Large fines are applicable, as well as demerit points against drivers licence if a truck is pulled up by the police or Department of Transport and Main Roads.
  • Whilst tarpaulins are used to prevent material escaping during transit they have no structural integrity (legal or actual) thus they are not strong enough to prevent heavier debris from dislodging.
