Same-day skip bins, on wheels.

In most cases, yes. The skip stands 1.7 to 1.8m high and 2.1m wide, and is 4.1m long including the drawbar. Allow about 2.4m width and 1.9m height clearance. Tell us your car park's height clearance when you book and we'll confirm before we come.

Up to 48 hours. Same day is our signature service: dropped off in the morning and gone by 5pm. Keeping it up to 48 hours is $80 more. We keep hires short so every skip stays available for same-day jobs, and each extra day after 48 hours is $150.

If a car fits, the skip usually fits. It's 2.1m wide and 4.1m long including the drawbar, and sits on its own wheels, so it won't scratch or crack your driveway. Tell us about tight gates, slopes or overhanging trees when you book.

Please don't. It's a registered trailer and only our team should tow or reposition it. If it needs to move, call us and we'll do it.

We drop the skip off in the morning and collect it the same day, gone by 5pm. Need more than one load? Book daily swaps and we'll bring an empty skip each time we collect a full one.

With skip hire we drop the skip off and you fill it. With rubbish removal our team comes with the skip and loads it for you, at a fixed price quoted from your photos.

Every booking starts as a full skip with a 1,000kg allowance, so you can fill it without worrying about weight. For a lighter job, choose a smaller load, such as a ½ load (500kg), and pay less. Over a lighter allowance it's $80 per 100kg ($50 for green waste and recycling), based on the tip's weighbridge docket. 1,000kg is the most any skip can carry.

You pay in full when you book, and there's no card surcharge. Your card is kept on file for any adjustment. If one applies, we text you the photos and weighbridge docket first, and charge it after 24 hours unless you dispute it.

Yes. Builders, trades, strata and building managers, property managers and other businesses can open a commercial account. Accounts are set up within 24 hours, and you get work order booking, one monthly invoice on 14-day terms, 10% off daily swaps and 5% off at 8 or more jobs a month. Email sydney@portableskips.com.au or call 0400 589 144 to apply.

Yes. Email your work order to sydney@portableskips.com.au with the site address, date, waste type and billing details. Accounts get one monthly invoice on 14-day terms.

Green waste and recycling are the cheapest. Green waste is for garden material only, and recycling is for cardboard, paper and clean packaging. General or household waste suits light rubbish, furniture and appliances. Mixed waste is the most flexible: household and builders waste, timber, metals, bricks and green waste together. Construction and heavy waste is for building, renovation and demolition waste. Choose clean if it's one material only, such as bricks, concrete or soil, which is cheaper and includes up to 1,000kg. Not sure? Call us and we'll help you pick.

No liquids, and no hazardous waste such as asbestos, chemicals, paint or gas bottles. Food waste can only go in a general waste skip, the lid must close once loaded, and the load can't be over 1,000kg. Mattresses and tyres are accepted for an extra charge. If you're unsure about an item, call us before you load it.

Yes. Book a construction and heavy skip and choose clean brick or concrete, or clean soil. Both include up to 1,000kg. Keep it to one material. Soil and concrete are very heavy, so the skip is only filled to about a quarter of its depth to stay under 1,000kg. We'll show you the fill line when we drop it off.

The longest hire is 48 hours, and each extra day after that is $150. Cancellations are free more than 24 hours before drop-off, $75 within 24 hours and $150 after the skip has left.

Yes. We're fully insured, including public liability, and our drivers are licensed, trained and in uniform. Our trailers are registered and checked before every job. Strata and building managers can ask us for a certificate of currency for their records or site inductions.

Usually not on your own property, in a strata car park, or for a same-day hire. A skip that stays on a public road or verge may need council approval, depending on your council. Check with your council before booking a multi-day hire on the street.

No, as long as we have clear, safe access and you've told us exactly where the skip should go. We text you a photo once it's placed. For strata buildings, let us know the building manager's contact and any access codes.

You choose a drop-off window when you book, from 7am to 10am through to 3pm to 6pm, and we text you when we're on our way. Same-day hires are dropped off in a morning window and collected by 5pm. Need an exact time, an early start before 7am or a Saturday? It's $60.

Yes. Every skip has a lockable lid, so neighbours and passers-by can't fill it with their rubbish. Keep it locked when you're not loading it.

Yes. Send us a written quote from another skip company in our area. If it's for the same size skip, waste type, weight allowance and hire period, we'll beat the total by 5%. It applies to same-day and 48-hour hires, and excludes promotional and online-only prices.

Where we can, we separate it at our own facilities first. Then each load goes to a reputable, licensed waste or resource recovery facility that suits the waste type. Cardboard is recycled, green waste is turned into mulch, and clean bricks and concrete are crushed for reuse. Our sustainability policy is available on request.

Sydney-wide, including the Sydney CBD, Inner City, Eastern Suburbs, Inner West, St George, the Sutherland Shire and Canterbury, plus more. We'll go anywhere to help our customers, so if you're not sure, reach out and call us. Our teams are based in Rosebery and Gymea Bay.

No hidden ones. The price you see includes delivery, collection, the sweep-up and a weight allowance. You only pay more if you change the hire, go over the weight allowance, or load waste that doesn't match the type you booked. For example, if you book household waste and load it with bricks or concrete, it's re-rated to the correct waste type. See the full list under Prices & fees.
