There is unfortunately no short cuts here and rubbish does take a lot to get rid of, as someone needs to deliver you a bin, pick this bin up, take it either to the tip to dispose of the waste or take it to waste transfer station, where waste is separated and recycled first and then will be taken further to recycling centres or the tip.
When the skip hire seems unusually cheap - look out and question the skip hire supplier about his procedures related to rubbish disposal as when the bin hire is too cheap - there could be a possibility of illegal dumping by a supplier, in which case if discovered or reported to EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) in Victoria, then the onus is not only on the operator but on a consumer who hired the bin originally.
There are however legitimate ways of saving cost on skip bin hire, one of the most common ones is by separating the waste on your project and finding a bin supplier, who actually rewards you for hiring a bin for a single type of waste.
While many skip hire suppliers won't be able to offer this option, a Melbourne based company - Need A Skip Now is one such supplier, who offers consumers not only skip bin prices for Mixed Waste and General Waste, but also deeply discount prices for the following waste types:
- 100% Bricks only skip bin - suitable for bin sizes from 2 cubic meters to 12 cubic meters
- 100% Soil only skip bin - suitable for bin sizes from 2 cubic meters to 12 cubic meters
- 100% Concrete only skip bin - suitable for bin sizes from 2 cubic meters to 12 cubic meters
- 100% Metal Only Skip Bin - suitable for bins from 8 cubic meters to 31 cubic meters
- Concrete / Bricks / Soil and Metal Bins - suitable for bin sizes from 2 cubic meters to 12 cubic meters
If you are a builder and have various types of waste and have space on your building site to have a couple of bins for various waste types then definitely going for single waste type bin will save you skip hire cost. If you are working on a project, which doesn't allow space for multiple bins, you might consider a single bin at a time but concentrating on one waste type. For instance - it is best to hire a separate bin for soil and not mix soil with anything else, as it then becomes what EPA calls a contaminated soil, which might then attract extra cost.
