Tips for successful use of skips
Have the waste ready (within your property line) to go into the skip for quick and easy disposal.
- Do not fill above the top rail. Skips may not be collected.
- Book the skip early so you don’t miss out on the dates you want and/or when family/friends can assist.
- Make your allocation go further, consider using the lounge collection as your bulk allocation, then purchase a bulk hard waste skip for the City’s special rate.
- Wait times for skip bins may increase at peak booking times (school holidays, end of financial year and Easter).
Mattress, white goods and lounge suite collection
All mattresses, white goods and lounge suites must be on the verge by 7.00am on collection day.
Assistance
The on-request service allows residents to book skip bins for a time when family, friends, and neighbours are able to assist. However, the City understands that there may be exceptional circumstances where residents have a genuine need for additional assistance to get items from the verge into the skip bin. If this situation occurs you are encouraged to speak with the City’s Waste team on 9400 4000 to discuss available options.
