It seems a new trend has arrived, not a typical trend like aviator glasses,  leather jackets or Justin Beiber..This trend is not so obvious, is smellier than most and one would have to be desperate…This trend is also been thrashed in New York City..Park Avenue to be exact. Any guesses?Bet you weren’t thinking Skip Bins (for all those who have seen any episode of SATC - you know Park Avenue isn’t exactly full of skip bins). Due to the major heat wave, the apartment dwelling people of New York City are desperate for some refuge from the heat so they are converting the skip bins into pools, quite a clever idea really (as long as the bins are clean of course!)Would Aucklander’s do the same in a heat wave? Or would we not want to be swimming around where last weeks garbage was housed for who knows how long?However, if you are looking for a skip bin for the more conventional purpose of throwing your rubbish away, have a look at bookabin. We have some great rates - customers in postcode 1027, Point England, Panmure, Meadowbank, Mt Wellington, Glen Innes, St Johns and Remuera have been booking a lot of bins….let it continue!
