Residential Rubbish Skip Bin Hire: Top Tips to Help You Choose the Right Bin
Do you need help working out what size and type of bin will be right for your project? There are a few things to consider when choosing your bin.
- What type of rubbish will you be throwing away?
A mixture of household items including food and liquid or 100% clean fill? The type of rubbish you are disposing of is the first key to deciding on the right bin for you.
- How much will you be throwing away?
We recommend thinking about the size of the biggest items you will be throwing away. People often find more rubbish than they originally thought, so opting for a size up can be a good way to go. In saying this, you can hire another bin for your fill.
- Where will you store the bin?
If you have plenty of space, you will not be restricted to certain sizes.
However, if you have a narrow driveway and can only store the bin there, you will need to ensure the bin you hire will fit in between fences and gates.
What is Clean Fill?
Clean fill is mostly found on construction sites. It includes materials such as non-contaminated concrete, bricks, rocks, tiles or asphalt(*1,2). If you choose to use a clean fill bin, it cannot be mixed with general waste, hazardous materials, chemicals, and the like.
Council Approval for Storing Skip Bins in Public Places
If you plan on leaving your bin on the footpath, you may be required to acquire a local council permit. In the city of Sydney, this is called the ‘Approval to Place a Skip Bin in a Public Place’(*3).
