Deceased estate

Deceased estate skip bin

Written by the Local Skip Bin Hire team · Updated 12 July 2026

Clearing a deceased estate is a sensitive job, and a 6m³ to 8m³ skip bin handles the volume of a full household clear-out — furniture, household goods and general waste. Book by postcode with delivery, pickup, GST and accepted waste removal included, and take the time you need.

What waste does a deceased estate produce?

An estate clear-out is general household waste across a whole home. A larger general-waste bin suits the volume; take care to set aside anything of value, sentiment or legal importance before clearing.

What goes in the skip

  • Furniture and household goods
  • General clutter and paper
  • Kitchenware and non-gas appliances
  • Mattresses and carpet (surcharge)
  • Garden and shed waste

What size skip do you need?

A full estate clear-out usually suits a 6m³–8m³ skip; a large home may need more than one bin or an extended hire. See the skip sizes guide or the 6m³ skip page for details.

Important — what's never accepted

Set aside documents, valuables and items of sentimental or legal importance before clearing. Paints, chemicals and gas bottles are never accepted — use your council's hazardous-waste service. Hazardous items such as asbestos, chemicals, paints, gas bottles and batteries are never accepted in any skip bin — if prohibited items are found after collection, contamination and disposal fees will be charged and the load may be rejected. See the waste categories guide.
