Skip Hire Frequently Asked Questions – Skip Bins Adelaide
How long can I keep the skip bin for?
7 days. If you need it for less, or longer, just ask one of our friendly team. Skip bins can be kept on-site for up to 7 days. Each day after this is charged at $20 per day per skip bin (subject to our discretion / not available in busy periods such as school holidays).
How much are the skip bins?
It depends on the size of the skip bin, and the type of waste in the bin. To find out skip bin hire prices, visit our Skip Bin Prices page.
How do I pay for my mini skip bin?
Payment via card can be made over the phone when booking, or you can pay the driver by cash or card on delivery. You can also request an invoice and pay via bank transfer. We accept Mastercard and Visa. Payment for the skip bin must be made on or before collection. Skip bins that aren’t paid for cannot be collected, and will incur extra charges after they have been kept on site for more than 7 days unless prior arrangements have been made with an advisor.
What can / cannot go in the skip bins?
We have different categories of waste types for the bins. Click on our Waste Types page to find out what can and cannot be put in the bins.
Do the skip bins have doors?
Most of our skip bins do have doors. In fact, most of our 3m, 4m, 6m & 10m skip bins have doors. No 2m bins have doors. All our 10m bins have doors.
What are the sizes of the skip bins?
Each size bin has different dimensions. They are all approx 1.5m wide to fit into driveways. To find out all of the sizes, click on our Skip Bin Sizes page.
Are there any extra charges?
Yes. Gas bottles, tyres (excluding bicycle tyres) and mattresses with springs inside are all charged at $35 extra per item. There is no extra charge for foam mattresses without springs. Overweight skip bins are charged $25 extra per 100 kg over the weight limit of that size bin and waste type.
Can I have the skip bin placed on the road or council property.
Each council has its own rules. Usually, you’ll need a permit to have the skip bin anywhere outside your property. The best practice is to phone your local council and ask what their rules are. If you have council permission to have the skip bin on council property, please advise us when booking, as barrier flags will need to be attached to the skip bin on delivery. For more information, click on our Local Council Permit Guide.
Can I get a skip bin delivered or collected on Sundays or Public Holidays?
