Rules differ between councils. Link directly to the current official source for each covered area.
Place your skip on your own property (driveway or off-street) wherever possible. If it must go on the berm or road, that's the road corridor managed by Tasman District Council or Nelson City Council — you may need council approval (often a Corridor Access Request) for public access and safety. Skips can't be placed on footpaths, and you must keep clear of fire hydrants and utility covers (water, gas, telecommunications). Rules vary by council, so check with Tasman District Council or Nelson City Council; we'll help position the bin correctly at delivery.

For DIY drop-offs, the Richmond Resource Recovery Centre (14 Fittal Street) takes general and building waste, and four further Resource Recovery Centres at Māriri, Tākaka, Collingwood and Murchison receive waste, recyclables, cleanfill, green waste and some hazardous materials. Check accepted items and hours first — a hired skip is simpler for larger loads.

Green waste is not taken at the Richmond centre — it goes to Greenwaste to Zero (18 Cargill Place) — while the Māriri, Tākaka, Collingwood and Murchison centres do accept green waste and cleanfill. A green-waste-only skip is often the easiest option. Hardfill and heavy loads (concrete, brick, tile, soil) are charged by weight, so tell us if your load is heavy.

If the bin fits on your property — a driveway or off-street area — no permit is needed. If it has to go on the berm or road, that's Tasman District Council's road corridor and you may need council approval for public safety. Skips can't sit on footpaths, and we keep clear of fire hydrants and utility covers. We'll advise on placement at delivery.
General household clean-ups, renovation waste, timber, furniture and garden waste are fine. Heavy loads — concrete, brick, tile and soil (hardfill) — are charged by weight, so let us know. We can't take hazardous items: asbestos, chemicals, paint, gas bottles, batteries or liquids. Ask us first if you're unsure.
Standard hire covers several days, which suits most home and garden projects. Need longer? Call us on 0800 449 197 and we'll arrange an extension.
Yes — green-waste-only skips (branches, prunings, leaves and grass) are available and priced for lighter garden loads. the Tasman Resource Recovery Centres (green waste via Greenwaste to Zero) also accepts green waste if you'd rather drop it off yourself.
