Green Waste

Whether you are a passionate green-thumb or have removed old trees from your garden, disposing of the mess is important. Aside from the aesthetic appeal, disposing of green waste will keep your garden and home from unwanted pests and debris, ensuring you can maintain kerbside appeal and style.

What is green waste?

As the name suggest, green waste is any rubbish that is biodegradable and is composed of:

Grass Cutting

Grass
Cutting

Flower Trimmings

Flower
Trimmings

Leaves, Tree Branches, and stumps

Leaves, tree
branches & stumps

Green waste has long been associated with compost. As these materials are biodegradable and they don’t have any negative impact on the environment. In fact, these materials do more good for your garden than any store-bought soil or fertiliser, saving you time and money on your garden. Not only that, but you are reducing your carbon footprint by using fewer chemicals in your garden.

Disposable Materials

Disposing of green waste in our skips needs to be done according to certain specifications. If you hire a skip for green waste, anything from grass and tree clippings to bark and branches are allowed; however, if you need a skip for clay and dirt, only clay and dirt can be disposed of.

It also is important to know that tree trunks/stumps larger than 150mm in diameter are not permitted in our standard Green Waste skips. Simply speak to one of our experts if you have large trunks and stumps and we will find the perfect bin for you.

Dispose of green waste properly

Disposing of green waste in a safe manner is important to ensuring that no mess is left behind. Although it is biodegradable, you don’t want any material to spill out from the bin as it can become a safety issue. Never fill the bin beyond the height of the skip, as our driver won’t be able to load it onto the truck.

If you are planning on cleaning up your garden, be sure you have the right bin to dispose of the waste. With our bins, you can easily dispose of those old tree clippings and plants in a safe and compact manner. For further enquiries, contact us online or call Matt’s Skip Bins today on (02) 4708 2927.

Finding the perfect Green Waste Skip Bin

After choosing the type of bin that you’ll need for your clean-up, you’ll need to choose the right bin size. But what is the right bin size? The right green waste skip bin for you will be determined by the size of the clean-up, with larger clean-ups requiring larger bins.

At Matt’s Skip Bins, we have a range of skip bin sizes designed for every job, from the small 2m2 skip bin, designed for spring cleaning and tree pruning, to our massive 10m2 skip bin, designed for large-scale landscaping and other large projects. If you need a hand finding the right skip bin, click below to find the right bin size for your project.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What size bin do I need?

    Every job is different, but as a rough guide, one standard car trailer is around 1 cubic metre. If your rubbish is already sitting in a pile, a rough calculation to measure a cubic metre is the length of the pile x the width x the height = the cubic capacity. Check out our Skip Bin Size page for more information.

    What can I put in the bin?

    Each waste type is different. See our Waste Types page to make sure you select the correct waste type for your needs. There are a few items that we do not accept in any waste type such as food, liquid, asbestos (we do provide Asbestos-only bins), chemicals, oils, paints, fire extinguishers and gas bottles. There are a couple of items that we do accept but they incur an extra fee, including spring mattresses and tyres.

    How high can I fill the bin?

    Bins may only be filled to the rim, in order for our drivers to safely cover and transport the bin.

    Where can my bin be placed?

    Your skip bin may be placed on your property (usually on the grass or the driveway). If you require the bin to be placed on council land, you will need to obtain a permit from your local council before ordering the skip bin.

    How long can I keep my bin?

    Our standard hire for general household clean up bins is 5 days and our standard hire for building waste bins is 14 days. However, we are aware that things don’t always go to plan. If you require the bin longer or finish with it sooner, please contact us before the scheduled pick up date so we can accommodate your needs. We are always happy to be flexible as long as you provide enough notice.

    How much notice do I need to give for delivery or collection of my bin?

    Wherever possible we can provide same day service, but it is best to give at least a day’s notice to be safe. However, if you require a skip bin by a certain time you are best to give 2 days’ notice (For example, if you need to start using your bin at 7am on a Wednesday morning, it’s best to call on a Monday so the we can have the bin delivered on the Tuesday, ready for use first thing Wednesday morning). To find out more, visit our Book a Bin page.

    Can I specify an exact delivery time?

    You may request a preferred time and our allocator will always try to accommodate your needs but, in our industry, it’s very difficult to book an exact time as workloads vary by the hour! To be safe, always book your bin for delivery on the day before you intend to start using it.

    What if I need to cancel my bin?

    Please see our Terms and Conditions page.

    How do I pay for my bin?

    We accept Visa, Mastercard and American Express over the phone. You can pay using PayPal or Credit Card via our website. Regular trade customers are welcome to apply for an account.
