Guidelines

We want to see that you get great value from the use of our bins. To ensure that this happens we suggest spending a small amount of time packing bins properly. Simply throwing items in, leads to excess ‘air’ holes and ‘spaces’ in the bin. Cutting tree waste and branches into smaller sizes, breaking down furniture along with good packing will eliminate air holes and spaces, ensuring you get great value from the bin.

In addition to this we suggest

That item’s are not placed above the top of the bin. Take note of the loading signs stencilled on the bin (they are for safety reasons).
Ensure items are not protruding from the parameters of the bin, which may affect our ability to lift the bin back onto the truck safely.

For SAFETY reasons please take note of the following

For SAFETY reasons please take note of the following
Do not place regulated waste items into the bin i.e. asbestos, tyres, liquids etc.
Do not move or relocate bins once we have placed them on the ground as we may not be able to retrieve the bin safely.
Access – for safety reasons we require minimum of one metre of clearance from both sides of our vehicles. Whilst we will attempt to place a bin in a location under your instruction if access is limited and damage occurs to your property we cannot be held responsible. We assure you of our care and attention when we enter your property.
If you are placing heavy items such as dirt, concrete or bricks in the bin please be aware that some bins have weight restrictions. A bin is considered full (or overfull) when it can no longer be lifted or carried safely or legally. If you are unsure please contact our office or click here to read more.

As hard as we try to manage how people use our bins we are constantly amazed. Here’s a few pictures (of what not to do).
