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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Whether this is your first time hiring a skip bin or if you’ve hired a skip bin before, at Cheapa Skip bins we go above and beyond to provide hassle-free skip bin hire in Gold Coast, making it easy for anyone to book an affordable skip bin.

We’ve answered some commonly asked questions below. To learn more, get in touch with us today, and our team will be happy to assist!

What is the green waste recycling process?

Green waste recycling is a sustainable way to turn garden and organic waste into valuable resources while reducing landfill impact:

Collection: Garden waste is gathered from homes, businesses, or community green spaces, ensuring it’s safely and efficiently transported to recycling facilities.
Sorting: Organic waste is carefully sorted to separate suitable materials like grass clippings, leaves, and branches from any non-organic or contaminated items.
Processing: The sorted green waste undergoes controlled composting, transforming it into nutrient-rich compost and mulch that can improve soil health and support plant growth.
Recycling & Reuse: The finished compost and mulch are returned to gardens, parks, and landscaping projects, completing a circular process that benefits both the environment and the community.

This approach ensures that green waste is handled responsibly, helping reduce landfill, promote sustainable gardening practices, and contribute to a healthier, more sustainable ecosystem.

Do I need a council permit for a green waste skip bin?

If your skip bin is placed on private property, you do not need a council permit. You can position it in your driveway, backyard, or other suitable private areas without any additional approvals.

However, if you need to place the skip on a public road, footpath, or nature strip, a council permit may be required. Requirements can vary depending on your location and local council regulations. We can provide guidance to help you understand whether a permit is needed for your specific situation.

How long can I keep the green waste skip bin?

Our standard hire period is 7 days, which suits most garden cleanups. If your project requires more time, extended hire periods are available, simply discuss your needs when booking!

What happens if I put non-green waste in the skip?

Only organic garden waste is allowed in our green waste skips. If restricted or non-green items are added, the load may become contaminated, requiring extra sorting. Additional charges may apply, so please ensure only approved green waste goes into your bin.

Can you deliver on weekends?

Yes! We offer weekend delivery across most of our service areas. Weekend slots are popular, so we recommend booking in advance to secure your preferred delivery time.

How quickly can you deliver a green waste skip bin?

We provide same-day delivery in many areas, subject to availability. For guaranteed timing, booking at least 24 hours in advance is recommended.

What is the weight limit for green waste skip bins?

Each skip size has a specific weight limit. Green waste can be heavy, especially when wet, so our team will guide you on the maximum weight to avoid extra charges.

What types of waste can you remove?

We handle a variety of waste types, including:

General & Household Waste: Furniture, boxes, mattresses, fridges, and garden clippings.
Commercial & Construction Waste: Timber, gyprock, tiles, metal, and plastic from renovations.
Garden / Green Waste: Palm fronds, grass clippings, tree branches, and tree trunks smaller than 400mm in diameter.
Mixed Heavy Waste: Landscaping materials, turf, dirt, bricks, and concrete.
Soil & Clean Fill: Garden beds, pool dig-outs, small gravel rocks.
Concrete & Bricks: Driveways, brick pavers, roof tiles, and sand-based construction debris.

What items cannot be disposed of in a green waste skip?

Our green waste service is for organic garden waste only. Items that cannot be included are:

Tyres
Paint tins
Flammables (gas bottles, petrol cans)
Oil-contaminated motor parts
Asbestos (requires licensed professionals)

While we don’t handle hazardous materials ourselves, we can advise you on safe and responsible disposal options. This ensures that any restricted or hazardous waste is managed correctly, keeping you and the environment safe.

Where can you place the skip bin?

Skips can be placed in your desired location on private property, provided it is practical. They can also be placed on a nature strip, as long as they do not obstruct pedestrian walkways or traffic.
