Simple pricing
What the price includes
Skip bin prices in East Gippsland are all-inclusive: delivery, collection and the tip fee are built into the quoted price, up to the bin’s weight limit. A 4m³ bin here includes disposal of up to 800kg. You only pay extra if you go over that limit, which is charged by the tonne — so the price you are quoted is almost always the price you pay.
Heavy waste is what catches people out. Soil, brick, concrete and tile reach the weight limit long before they fill the bin, so for heavy loads a smaller bin is usually the right call, not a bigger one.

Choose the right size
What size skip bin do you need?
Cubic metres mean very little until you translate them. The rule of thumb that works: one cubic metre is roughly one box-trailer load, or about four wheelie bins.

Mixed general waste at $297/tonne rewards sorting, but with most outlying transfer stations open only a few hours on a few days a week and the nearest facility often an hour's drive, skip hire is compelling for holiday-house turnarounds and any job in the hinterland. The permit can only be applied for by a contractor, which structurally favours providers.
