Christmas and New Years are approaching fast…so is that beautiful summer we have all been hanging out for! If you want to tidy up or spruce up the place a bit before the invasion of relatives then you better get cracking, the time is almost up!

We have a bin type for all your needs, whether you have been bringing out your green fingers and require a bin for all that garden waste, then a green garden waste bin is for you. Or maybe you have cleaned out your old house, and have found so much stuff you forgot you had and don’t actually need then a general waste bin will suit you. Maybe you have renovated a bit, and have a few bricks and tiles lying about – you will need a cleanfill bin.

Perhaps, you have some clean soil, lumped in a pile in the corner of your garden that is a bit of an eyesore! Just order a clean dirt / soil bin and then the problem is solved!

For a full list of what can and can’t go in any of the bins, simply log into www.bookabin.co.nz and have a look at out FAQ’s page.

Yes, just contact your supplier directly to arrange this.

I currently have surplus compost material, mainly soil and also partly rotted down material in compost bins and in a separate pile I have grass and clippings. Can your Cleanfill bin be used for this type of waste please as I no longer have room to use?
The best bin to use for this waste is a Green Waste skip.

Take a look at the indicative only images on the website (at the Bin Size part of the process) it will give you an idea of the size of the bin so you can see which bin will suit you best.

Wanting to know if bin comes with wheelbarrow access or a door?
As we use a variety of suppliers we can’t always guarantee specific features of a bin. If you require something other than a standard skip, often it is helpful to contact a local supplier directly if the feature is of necessity.

Our local Bin Hire does 4.5cm for $150 including GST. Can you match this price?
The website will match your requirements to the best price available from a supplier in your area, as the cheapest stock books out first, it is best to book ahead of time to secure the sharpest prices.

You can also note a preferred delivery time on your booking form. Generally our suppliers deliver bins before 11am.
