- Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions — Skip Bin Sizes Geelong
What size skip bin do I need for a house cleanout in Geelong?
For a small single-room house cleanout, a 3m³ to 4m³ mini skip is usually sufficient. For a medium whole-home cleanout, a 6m³ to 8m³ bin is recommended. For a full property or deceased estate cleanout, a 10m³ mini skip or 10m³ hook bin will handle the volume. Not sure? Call 03 5277 1007 and we’ll advise based on your property size.
What is the difference between a mini skip and a hook bin?
Mini skip bins (3m³–10m³) are delivered on a small truck by tipping the bin off the back — ideal for household and small to medium project waste. Hook bins (10m³–30m³) are delivered by hook-lift truck and built for large construction, commercial and industrial waste. Hook bins are heavier duty and hold far more volume than mini skips.
How much does skip bin hire cost in Geelong?
Mini skip bin hire starts from $340 for a 3m³ bin. Hook bins start from $890 for a 10m³ bin. Scrap metal bins start from $750 for a 10m³ bin, with discounted rates for clean metal-only loads. All pricing is for a standard 7-day hire. Call 03 5277 1007 for an exact price for your suburb and waste type.
Can I mix different types of waste in the same skip bin?
Yes — general waste skip bins accept mixed loads including household rubbish, renovation debris, garden waste and timber in the same bin. Scrap metal bins are for metal-only loads (clean metal loads attract discounted rates). We do not accept soil, asbestos, liquid waste, chemicals or paint in any bin.
