What CANT go in a skip bin??

December 9th, 2010 by The BookaBin Australia Bin Hire Team

In the name of safety (environmental and personal!) hazardous waste cannot be placed in a skip bin. This type of waste includes TV’s, monitors, fridges, paints, solvents, liquids or any asbestos. To dispose of any of these materials you need to contact your local council. They will be able to provide you with a contact who can dispose of anything hazardous or not accepted in your skip bin (i.e. food waste). In some areas, disposal of tyres and mattresses in the skip bin can incur additional charges, due to the process involved. If you are unsure about what you have to get rid of, the best thing to do is contact your local council directly and have a chat or use the LIVE CHAT function on the www.bookabin.com.au  website….

Waste Types

September 29th, 2010 by The BookaBin Australia Bin Hire Team

The team at bookabin receive a lot of questions regarding waste types - we dont blame you, it can be surprisingly confusing!

Bookabin offers 4 different waste types:

General waste - which is Suitable for most domestic and commercial waste removal. This bin is hired for people who are doing a household clean out and wish to dispose of furniture etc. Please be aware that green waste can also be disposed of in a general waste bin. Also, if you have a small amount (we say less than 2 wheelbarrows full) of cleanfill, this too can be disposed of in the general waste bin. If you put more than 2 wheelbarrows full, your order could get canceled by the supplier or you caould get charged extra! 

Green Waste - Which is for green garden waste removal only. Suitable for: grass, leaves, small branchs, other organic material 

Cleanfill Waste General “Clean” rubbish removal. Suitable for: concrete, soil, clay, rocks, rubble,  bricks, sand, ashphalt,  ceramic tiles. This and general waste can NOT be mixed together in this bin! 

100% pure soil / dirt - This bin is for clean soil only, it can not have any grass or weeds etc mixed in. If your soil is not clean it can be disposed of in the cleanfill bin.

We hope this makes booking a skip bin easier for you! It is fantastic to see all the orders coming out of postcode 4500 in QLD - Strathpine, Stratpine Centre, Warner, Brendale, Bray Park, Brendale Bc, Cashmere, Joyner, Brendale Dc, Clear Mountain - Go Queensland!

Only in America

August 16th, 2010 by The BookaBin Australia Bin Hire Team

The team at bookabin likes to research blog ideas…In doing this research we came upon a unique story from Wichita, Kansas.A couple in the midst of putting their own spin on ‘dumpster diving’ were robbed at knife point whilst inside the dumpster!Luckily all the stolen property was recovered.What do you think? Do Aussies hang around skip bins in hope someone jumps in so they can subsequently rob them? Surely not….This stuff only happens in America.If you are looking for a bin for to actually dispose waste in..have a look at bookabin, customers in postcode 4069, Fig Tree Pocket, Pinjarra Hills, Kenmore, Pullenvale, Brookfield, Kenmore East, Kenmore Dc, Upper Brookfield, Kenmore Hills and Chapel Hill Australia have the right idea with a lot of bookings coming through!
