What waste types do Cheapa Skips accept?

Cheapa Skips accepts general household waste (furniture, mattresses, appliances, lawn clippings), commercial and construction waste (tiles, timber, gyprock, metal), green waste (palm fronds, branches, tree trunks up to 400mm diameter), mixed heavy waste (landscaping, turf, glass, dirt, bricks, concrete), soil and clean fill, and concrete and bricks. Hazardous items such as tyres, paint tins, gas bottles, and asbestos are not accepted.

What skip bin sizes does Cheapa Skips offer?

Cheapa Skips offers a full range of Marrel skip bin sizes: 2-3m³ (bathroom renos, small cleanups), 4m³ (moving house), 5m³ (medium general waste), 6m³ (construction sites), 8m³ (bulky items), 10m³ (heavy materials), 12m³ (large industrial jobs), and 15m³ (very large or heavy waste). The right size depends on your waste type, as bulky items take more space than green or general waste.

What items cannot be placed in a Cheapa Skips skip bin?

Restricted and hazardous items that cannot be disposed of in a Cheapa Skips bin include tyres, paint tins, flammable materials (gas bottles, petrol cans), motor parts with oil or grease, and asbestos. Placing restricted items in a skip bin contaminates the load and you will be responsible for the additional cost of separating those materials. Asbestos removal must be handled by licensed professionals.

Where can a skip bin be placed on my property?

Cheapa Skips bins can be placed in your preferred location where practically accessible. They can also be placed on the nature strip (verge), provided the skip does not obstruct pedestrian walkways. The bin should be positioned so it is easy for you to fill and easy for our truck to collect.

Does Cheapa Skips sort or recycle waste?

Yes. Cheapa Skips sorts recyclable materials from general rubbish wherever possible at their sorting facilities, helping to reduce landfill impact and ensure responsible disposal.

CONSTRUCTION WASTE TYPES

What Counts as Construction Waste?

Managing building waste? With Cheapa Skips’ construction skip bin hire, you can easily dispose of heavy, bulky materials safely, stay compliant, and keep your site clean and efficient.

What You Can Put in Your Skip Bin

Most standard construction materials from renovations or demolitions can go in the same bin, no need to separate on site:

Bricks, concrete & rubble
Tiles & terracotta
Plasterboard & drywall (gyprock)
Metal & steel offcuts
Flooring materials
Plastic sheeting & packaging
Dry paint tins (empty or dried)
New insulation (non-asbestos)

What Not to Toss in Your Bin

Some items require specialist handling or licensed disposal. Placing them in your construction skip can cause fines, hazards, or rejected loads:

Asbestos & old insulation
Wet paint, chemicals & liquid waste
Food waste & general household rubbish
E-waste (batteries, monitors, appliances)
Gas bottles & tyres
Rocks, gravel & heavy soil (unless pre-approved – weight restrictions apply)

What construction materials are prohibited in skip bins?

You cannot place the following in a standard construction skip:

Asbestos & old insulation
Wet paint, chemicals & liquid waste
Food waste & general household rubbish
E-waste (batteries, monitors, appliances)
Gas bottles & tyres
Rocks, gravel & heavy soil (unless pre-approved)

If you’re unsure about a material, our team can advise the safest disposal solution.

Can I mix different types of construction waste in one bin?

Yes! Most construction materials like timber, bricks, concrete, plasterboard, metal, and tiles can be mixed in the same bin. Avoid mixing in green waste, soil, or household rubbish, as this may incur surcharges or be rejected at disposal facilities.

Do I need a council permit for a skip bin in Brisbane?

Private property (driveway, yard, within site boundary): No permit needed.
Public roads, footpaths, or nature strips: A council permit is required.

Cheapa Skips can help with council approvals to ensure your bin is placed legally.

How does using a skip bin help with waste disposal compliance?

Hiring a licenced skip bin operator like Cheapa Skips ensures your construction waste is handled in line with Queensland regulations. This:

Protects you from fines for illegal dumping or non-compliant handling
Ensures recyclable materials are properly diverted from landfill
Keeps your project safe and environmentally responsible

Do I need a special bin for asbestos?

Yes. Asbestos cannot be placed in a standard construction skip bin. It must be removed and disposed of by a licensed asbestos professional. If you suspect your renovation involves asbestos-containing materials (common in pre-1990 homes), contact a licensed removalist before booking your skip. If you’re unsure, give us a call and we can point you in the right direction.
