Dear Customers and Fellow Melbournians

We are just over a week away from Melbourne's favourite long weekend - Melbourne Cup Day 2018!!!!

Coincidentally it has also been of the Melbournians favourite weekends to hire a Skip Bin and complete their renovation, landscaping, garage clean out or organise an infamous Spring Cleaning Day.

We would like to pass on a few tips on hiring a skip over the long weekend, plus extend our Special Spring Racing Carnival Long Weekend Hire deal, where you can hire a bin from Friday to the following Wednesday at no additional charges.  Just mention our Spring Racing Carnival Special when calling our friendly customer service team on 1300 605 624.

One of the most frequently asked questions is: how far in advance should I book a skip bin?  While our standard answer would be - at least 24 hours prior to the day of hire, when it comes to Melbourne Long Weekends - we strongly recommend to hire a week in advance, for a simple reason that bin stock usually sells out and if you are after a particular size or type of bin, to ensure that it's available, there is no such thing as booking too early :-).  So in a nutshell - the time to book your skip bin for the long weekend is NOW.

Here's a simple guide to the Skip Bin Sizes, Prices and bins' best purpose for your convenience (please note: prices are for Clayton South for mixed builders / renovation waste, for your specific suburb and waste type please call us on 1300 605 624 or jump onto our website):
