(Bulk Waste Skips – FAQ)

Can I mix concrete, bricks or soil with my rubbish?
No, if you have any concrete, soil or stones to be disposed of, please advise us and we will give you a bulk handling bag to put these items in.

How long can I have my skip for?
Skip hire is for 3 to 5 days but can be longer by prior arrangement – charges apply. Please remember we do not deliver or collect on weekends or public holidays, but these days will be included in the hire period.

How and When Do I Pay?
We accept cash payment on delivery or internet payment prior to delivery, but please remember all bins must be paid for on or before delivery.
NO PAYMENT, NO SKIP.

What if nobody is at home when I want the skip delivered?
Please make sure we have detailed instructions or we could arrange a visit prior to delivery to discuss placement.

How high can I fill the skip?
Level to the top. Overloaded skips are at risk of having items fall off the truck during transport. If your skip is overloaded we may remove items to make it safe for transport. Think safety

Is there a weight limit?
Yes. It is unusual for the maximum weight to be exceeded, but it can happen if concrete and soil is put into a large general rubbish skip or if the skip contains a large amount of Gib board.

The maximum weight limit for our 7.5 cubic meter skip is 1000kg and we reserve the right to charge $3 for each 10 kgs over the limit.

Is there a minimum driveway access width?
Yes, we need 3 meters to get our truck in your drive and when the skip is unloaded it will be off the side of the truck. It is also important to note that there are no power lines in the area of the skip as we use a crane to unload the skip.

Can I move the skip?
NO! Any damage done to the bin or property by a skip being moved will be the responsibility of the hirer.
