This all depends on the type of rubbish you are going to put in the skip bin. As you are deciding on the type of skip bin you need, focus on the types of waste you’ll be disposing of. Skip bins in New Zealand cater to various waste categories, each with specific requirements:

1. General Waste: Suitable for everyday items like household rubbish, furniture, and non-hazardous materials.
2. Green Waste: Ideal for garden waste, including grass, leaves, branches, and small tree trimmings.
3. Hard Fill: Used for heavy materials like bricks, concrete, tiles, and stones. Perfect for construction or demolition debris.
4. Clean Fill: Strictly for uncontaminated materials such as soil, clay, and gravel.
5. Mixed Waste: Equals General Waste – this means you can mix general with green waste together.

Choosing the correct skip bin ensures efficient waste management and compliance with disposal regulations. Always confirm with us if you are unsure.
