Disposal
Tipping and disposal of accepted general waste is included — there is no separate gate fee to pay on collection.
GST
Every figure on this page is GST inclusive. What you see is what you pay.
7 days hire
The standard hire is 7 days from delivery. Need it longer? Extra days are quoted up front before you book.
Bins of 10m³ and larger, and heavy waste such as concrete, brick and soil, are priced separately — enter your postcode and pick the waste type for a firm figure before you book.

Do you need a permit in Darwin?
If the bin needs to sit on a road, footpath or nature strip, that is council land and the City of Darwin requires approval before delivery day. The current charges are set out on our City of Darwin permit page, and every council we have audited is on what a skip bin permit costs by council. Councils change their fees, so confirm the current charge on the council's own page before you book. A bin kept entirely on your own driveway or property does not need a permit.

What size skip do I need?
A 2m³ suits a small clean-out of roughly two trailer loads; a 4m³ a bathroom strip-out or small renovation; a 6m³ a full house clear-out; an 8m³ a larger renovation or a whole-property clear. If you are between two sizes, the larger bin is almost always cheaper than hiring a second one.
