Skip bin hire is a practical way to manage large amounts of rubbish from home clean-ups, renovations, garden projects and construction work. Instead of making repeated trips to a waste facility, you can have a suitable skip bin delivered to your property, load the permitted waste and arrange collection when your project is finished.

OnTime Skip Bins Hire provides skip bins from 2m³ to 12m³, with options for residential, commercial, renovation, green waste and construction projects across Melbourne.

What Is Skip Bin Hire?

Skip bin hire allows you to rent a waste container for a specific period. The bin is delivered to an agreed location, you fill it with permitted materials, and the provider collects it for appropriate waste processing and disposal.

It can be useful when a normal household bin is not large enough for the amount of rubbish generated by your project.

Whether you’re decluttering your home, replacing a bathroom, clearing your garden or managing construction waste, choosing the right skip bin can make rubbish removal more convenient.

What Can You Put in a Skip Bin?

The type of waste accepted depends on the waste category and booking requirements.

OnTime Skip Bins lists several acceptable waste types, including:

• Furniture and household items
• Timber
• Clothes
• Office materials
• Suitable electrical goods
• Plaster
• Carpet
• Steel
• Concrete
• Bricks and tiles
• Trees and branches
• Soil
• Mulch
• Rocks and pebbles

These materials can come from household clean-ups, renovations, landscaping and construction projects.

However, not every type of rubbish can go into a skip bin.

What Cannot Go in a Skip Bin?

Certain hazardous and restricted materials require specialist handling and should not be placed in a standard skip bin.

OnTime’s terms list prohibited materials including:

• Asbestos
• Chemicals
• Poisons
• Batteries
• Paint
• Food and biological waste
• Medical waste
• Liquids
• Radioactive waste
• Gas bottles
• Spray cans
• Flammable substances

If you’re unsure whether a particular material is permitted, check with the skip bin provider before loading it.

Choosing the Right Skip Bin Size

Selecting the right size can help you avoid running out of space or paying for more capacity than you need.

OnTime Skip Bins currently offers sizes from 2m³ to 12m³.

2m³ Skip Bin

Suitable for small household clean-ups, garden waste and minor DIY projects.

3m³ Skip Bin

A practical option for garage clean-outs, small renovations and lighter building waste.

4m³ Skip Bin

Suitable for bathroom renovations, landscaping and general clean-ups.

6m³ Skip Bin

A popular option for home renovations, roofing work and medium-sized waste volumes.

8m³–12m³ Skip Bins

Larger bins can be suitable for major renovations, commercial clean-ups, construction, demolition and higher-volume waste removal.

If you’re unsure which size you need, provide details about your project and the amount and type of waste you expect to remove.

How Much Does Skip Bin Hire Cost?

There isn’t one fixed skip bin hire price for every project. The cost can depend on several factors, including:

• Bin size
• Type of waste
• Delivery location
• Hire period
• Weight and disposal requirements

OnTime’s standard hire period is up to three days, while longer hire may be available depending on your requirements.

For an accurate quote, provide your suburb, preferred bin size, waste type and delivery date.

Can You Get Same-Day Skip Bin Delivery?

If you need a bin quickly, same-day delivery may be available subject to availability. Booking early can help, but availability depends on factors such as your suburb, required bin and delivery schedule.

This can be useful for unexpected clean-ups, urgent renovation waste or projects that need to move quickly.

Do You Need a Permit?

If a skip bin is placed on a road, street or nature strip, a council permit may be required. Requirements can vary between councils.

Where possible, placing the bin entirely on private property can avoid some of the issues associated with roadside placement. Check the relevant council requirements before arranging delivery.
