Skip Hire and How To Do It Cheaper

Skip Bin Hire is one of the common services in Melbourne, Australia, used both by residential and commercial customers.  However since nobody wants to spend a lot of money on getting rid of their rubbish, one of the most frequently asked questions is how to make skip hire cheaper?
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
Need A Skip Now operates its own waste transfer station, where bins are taken and all the waste is properly separated, recycled and processed, which allows this bin supplier to offer discounted prices on Bricks bins, Soil Bins, Concrete Bins and Metal Bins.  For an immediate skip bin hire quote either jump on their website or call their friendly customer service team on 1300 605 624 to get access to bin hire specials in Melbourne.
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.
We hope that you find this article helpful and it will assist you in your quest to reduce your skip hire and waste disposal costs. Please don't hesitate to contact us for further questions or recommendations.

Skip Bin Hire for Soil or Dirt in Melbourne Australia

As most of the Melbournians - be it a Builder / Renovator / Concreter or a Swimming Pool Company - we are all looking for ways to minimise our cost of waste or rubbish removal from our building projects.

One of the commonly disposed of waste types in Melbourne during such projects is soil or dirt.  There are various types of dirt, depending on the project, such as:
  • Dirt with some green waste and stones - as part of the landscaping project, would call for a Mixed Heavy type of Bin Hire
  • Dirt from the excavation of Driveway - would be a mixture of Concrete and Soil - and would also be suitable for a reduced priced Skip Bin for Concrete and Soil recyclable Waste
  • Dirt from deep excavation - such as digging for a swimming pool - will qualify for a 100% soil bin, which is a discounted price from the mixed heavy waste types.
Dirt - especially wet dirt after some rains - will be very dense and very heavy, hence - when choosing a bin hire company - be sure to enquire whether there is an additional charge at the end of hire for extra weight.

Aim to find an all-inclusive up-front price for bin hire for Dirt / Soil, regardless of the weight, so that there are no hidden surprises on the pickup of the bin.

Generally, bins for Soil / Dirt would be offered from 2 cubic meters up to 6 or 8 cubic meters.  Only a few companies in Melbourne would have powerful enough trucks to lift up to 10 or 12 cubic meters bin of soil.

One has to be careful when loading the bin - as there is a significant difference of how much you can fit into a bin if manually filling it with wheelbarrows or loading it with a bob cat or an excavator.  The danger of loading it with an excavator  and compacting the soil in the bin can result in seriously overloading the bin (weight wise) and making it too heavy for the truck to lift.  Prior to hiring a bin - enquire what is the maximum weight the truck is able to lift, thus it will help you to estimate whether you can compact the soil or not.






As soil is a recyclable material in Australia - you should always expect to pay LESS for Soil / Dirt than you would pay for a Mixed Heavy Builders Waste, which is normally a combination of: Soil / bricks / Concrete / Clay and sometimes even General Waste.

Companies, which have their own waste transfer station - would be most suited to provide best prices for Skip Bin Hire for Soil, as they have processes to screen and clean this soil and then take it to a soil processing facility, thus diverting it from landfill.

For any Skip Bin Hire questions in Melbourne, Australia - please don't hesitate to post your comments and we'll endevour to answer them promptly.

We wish you in finding the best Bin Hire Company to assist you with your Waste Management and in particular Soil Disposal.
