“The challenge with renovation waste is that it’s mixed, often heavy, and needs to be handled properly. We see everything from asbestos sheeting that needs special disposal to perfectly good timber that can be reused. Our experience since 1977 has taught us how to handle each type of material responsibly,” explains our operations manager.
Common Questions
Can I put renovation waste and garden waste in the same skip bin?
Yes, you can mix different types of waste in our skip bins. We hand-sort everything at our Devonport facility, so we can separate materials for recycling regardless of how they arrive. This makes your renovation much easier as you don’t need to worry about sorting on site.
What happens if my skip bin gets too heavy during my renovation?
We apply excess weight charges of $20 including GST per 100kgs over the limit. Materials like concrete, tiles, and bricks are particularly heavy, so consider spreading these across multiple smaller bins if you’re doing extensive floor or wall work. We’re happy to advise on the best approach for your specific project.
Do you offer extended hire periods for large renovation projects?
Absolutely! Our skip bins come with a minimum 3-day hire period, but we can extend this for weeks or even months depending on your renovation timeline. Many of our Browns Bay customers prefer this approach as it means waste can be disposed of progressively rather than creating a massive cleanup at the end.
Will the skip bin damage my Browns Bay property’s driveway?
Our experienced drivers take care when delivering and collecting skip bins. We can place protective boards under the skip if you’re concerned about your driveway surface, though this isn’t usually necessary on standard concrete or asphalt driveways. Just let us know about any specific concerns when booking.
