The 10m³ Skip Bin at a Glance

A 10m³ builder's skip is the first of the hook-lift bins. Builders use it for fit-outs and construction waste, and it suits big clean-outs where the bin can sit on a wide driveway or the street.

What Fits in a 10m³ Skip Bin

  • Waste from a shop or office fit-out
  • Construction offcuts: timber, plasterboard, packaging and fittings
  • A large house clean-out with plenty of bulky furniture
  • A big landscaping job: branches, old timber fencing and garden waste

When Another Size Is Better

  • A home renovation. A 6m³ to 9m³ is usually enough and easier to place.
  • Heavy waste. Soil, concrete and bricks belong in a small heavy waste bin, not a bin this size.

Heavy Waste and Loading

The walls are about 1.9m high, so most people load it through the door end or from a raised spot. Spread the load evenly so the bin sits level for the truck.

Keep these out of every bin: asbestos, paint, chemicals, gas bottles, batteries and e-waste. Mattresses and tyres can go in as paid extras, added in your quote.

Delivery and Placement

Where it fits

A hook-lift truck delivers this size and needs more room than the smaller Marrel trucks. Many homes put it on the street, which needs a council permit first. Put it on a flat, firm surface, not soft grass or new pavers.

Permits

No permit on your own property. On the street, footpath or nature strip, your council needs to issue one first. Find your council's rules from our Melbourne, Sydney or Brisbane pages.
