It is a very busy one for bookabin as it is the perfect weekend for hiring a bin. The weekend is a long one, so for all of those who are not going away before winter really hits then how about having a cleanout, tidy up the garden and/or dispose of all the rubbish left over from the renovation. bookabin.co.nz has 4 different bin types: general waste bin, cleanfill bin, green garden waste bin and a clean soil and dirt bin. Have a look at the FAQ page for more details on what can and can not be disposed of in each bin type.

Quite frequently, we receive questions via our Live Chat regarding which bin should be hired.  Here is a breakdown to help clarify:

General Waste - typically anything involved with a “general cleanup around the house and section” that is neither liquid nor of a hazardous nature

Cleanfill / Hardfill - suitable if you have any of the following: concrete, soil, sand, clay, rocks, rubble, bricks, sand, asphalt or ceramic tiles

Green Waste - suitable for grass, leaves, tree trimmings, small branches and/or other organic materials

Soil / Dirt - only suitable if you have 100% pure soil / dirt (no turf or contaminants). Please note that no other waste can be mixed in this bin.  Additional charges will apply if other waste is placed in this bin

If you are looking for a skip bin then hop online to www.bookabin.co.nz. You will find on the website a frequently answered questions (FAQ) page, which is hugely helpful to answer some of the many questions such as:

Will they be able to get up my drive?
Most suppliers will have smaller trucks for tricky locations. Your drive needs to be 3 metres wide for a normal truck with a 9 cubic metre skip bin (standard size). Once ordered you should contact your supplier and discuss the location of the skip bin if you think that access may be difficult.

Do you service business/commercial customers?
You will be able to order a skip bin from the site using a credit card. However we do not offer charge accounts.

Can I get a skip delivered on Sunday?
You can order a skip bin for Sunday delivery using bookabin.co.nz, however the choice of suppliers will be limited. If possible request the skip bin to be delivered on the Friday or Saturday prior.

How much notice do I need to give when ordering my skip?
Most suppliers will be able to deliver a skip bin within 24hrs of ordering, however, we suggest skip bins are booked as far in advance as possible to ensure you are able to get a skip bin that best meets your requirements and price.
