General Waste
Light domestic waste such as broken furniture, office clutter, pallets, white goods and general household junk is permitted in a general waste skip bin.
A General Waste skip can also include a small amount of green waste and light building waste such as plastic, timber and metals.
3m3 to 6m3 skip bins are commonly used for small and medium sized junk removal, decluttering and backyard clean ups where the waste is light but bulky.
For medium or larger projects, 8m3 to 15m3 bins are recommended.
Not Permitted: Any Regulated or hazardous waste such as paint, liquids, asbestos, food, chemicals, batteries, tyres, gas bottles, fire extinguishers.
