Skip Bin Material Classifier

Household Rubbish

Everyday non-recyclable domestic waste. Must be dry and non-putrescible. Any household rubbish mixed with construction waste becomes construction waste.

Household Clutter

Household clutter from decluttering, garage clean-outs, or seasonal clean-ups. Proper sorting ensures safe transport and compliant disposal. No construction waste.

General Waste

The most versatile skip bin option for household cleanouts, renovations, and decluttering. Accepts a wide range of non-hazardous materials. No heavy construction materials.

Construction Waste

Construction and demolition waste. Properly sorting helps reduce landfill and promotes recycling. MUST NOT contain asbestos. Any household clutter, litter & scrap or general waste mixed with construction waste becomes construction waste.

Green Waste (No Soil)

Plant-based garden waste. Properly disposing of green waste helps reduce landfill and allows organic materials to be composted and recycled. No soil or dirt.

Green Waste (With Soil)

Plant-based garden waste such as grass, leaves, and small branches with soil attached. For garden waste where soil separation is not practical.

Mix of Bricks & Concrete

Heavy masonry materials from demolition and construction projects. Weight restrictions apply due to dense materials. Keeping heavy waste separate helps ensure proper recycling and reduces disposal costs.

Steel & Scrap Metal

Steel is one of the most recyclable materials. Proper separation supports sustainable recycling. Ideal for construction sites, demolition projects, workshops, and scrap clean-ups. Must contain predominantly steel or metal.

Asbestos

Regulated hazardous material requiring strict handling and disposal. All asbestos must be double-wrapped in 200-micron plastic and clearly labelled per EPA regulations. Anything mixed with asbestos should be considered as asbestos.

Dirt & Soil

Clean fill from landscaping, excavation, and construction projects. Only clean, uncontaminated soil is permitted. Mixed loads may be rejected or reclassified at additional cost.

Copper Wire

Highly valuable and recyclable copper materials. Proper separation ensures maximum recycling recovery. Ideal for electricians, construction sites, and scrap clean-ups. Bins must predominantly contain copper.

Litter & Scrap

Dry, non-putrescible litter and lightweight scrap from public clean-ups, light commercial sites, and small projects. All materials must be dry. No construction waste.

Bricks

Brick-based construction materials from demolition and building projects. Keeping brick waste separate ensures proper recycling and reduces disposal costs. Brick bins are for bricks only.

Concrete

Concrete materials from demolition and construction projects, including reinforced and non-reinforced concrete. Weight restrictions apply due to the dense nature of concrete. Keeping concrete waste separate ensures proper recycling and reduces disposal costs.

Construction Waste with Soil (Mixed Heavy)

Mixed heavy construction waste combined with soil from excavation, demolition, or site cleanup projects. Due to the heavy nature of these materials, weight limits apply.
