About General Waste Skip Bins

Our General Waste skip bins are your go-to solution for disposing of lightweight, non-hazardous waste from homes or small businesses. Perfect for spring cleans, office declutters, or moving house, these bins handle everyday rubbish like furniture, appliances, and minor garden trimmings—all capped at a 150kg per cubic metre weight limit. Since 2010, HireSkipBins.com has been trusted across Sydney and Melbourne for efficient, eco-friendly waste removal, saving you the hassle of multiple tip runs.

What Can and Can’t Go in a General Waste Skip Bin?

What You CAN Put In

  • Everyday household items like clothing, toys, paper, cardboard, and kitchen utensils
  • Furniture such as sofas, dining tables, chairs, and wardrobes
  • Appliances including refrigerators, microwaves, and washers (no hazardous components)
  • Light office waste like desks, chairs, and paper stationery
  • Minor garden trimmings such as small branches, grass cuttings, and leaves

Handy Hint: Cover your bin with a tarp during rain to keep it light and avoid extra weight charges!

What You CAN’T Put In

  • Dense materials like bricks, concrete blocks, roof tiles, gravel, sand, dirt, or clay
  • Renovation debris such as plasterboard, fibre cement, villaboard, or treated wood (e.g., decking, retaining walls)
  • Large woody waste like palm trunks, tree roots, or stumps
  • Turf, sod, or soil with grass attached
  • Flooring materials like carpet, underlay, vinyl, or rubber (email support@hireskipbins.com for a quote)
  • Tyres or mattresses (extra fees apply—contact us at 1800 931 772)
  • Hazardous items including asbestos, wet paint, chemicals, batteries, oils, food scraps, or anything that rots

Note: These bins aren’t built for heavy waste like concrete or soil—choose Mixed Heavy or Soil / Dirt bins instead. We weigh every bin on pickup; excess weight or contamination incurs charges per our Terms & Conditions. Ask for a weigh docket if needed.
