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.
