Waste type specification

Specification of your waste type is very important as there are certain types which must not be placed in a skip bin. Also, depending on the type of waste, the price of the skip bin hire service in Canberra will be determined. It is essential that you properly identify your waste type as you can end up paying additional charges by placing any other waste in a hired bin.

Please find below a guide what is allowed for each type of skip bin hire.
