Bookabin Are Very Busy At This Time of the Year

The Bookabin team are so busy at this time of the year, they are not always able to answer individual questions from their customers, but they have an easy to use FAQ page on their website which people find very helpful. For instance, people ask what does General Waste mean?

General Waste is typically anything involved with a general cleanup around the house and section that is neither liquid nor of a hazardous nature, and you should use a Cleanfill / Hardfill skip bin, if you have any of the following: Concrete, clay, rocks, rubble, bricks, asphalt, ceramic tiles. You should use a Green Waste skip bin if you have any grass, leaves, tree trimmings, small branches and other organic materials, and only use a Soil/Dirt skip bin if you have 100% pure soil or dirt, not turf or contaminants. No other waste can be mixed in this bin, and additional charges will apply if other waste is placed in this bin. The website provides a 'skip size page' to assist you with your selection.

Hazardous waste can not be placed in the skip bin, and this includes TVs, monitors, fridges, paints, solvents, liquids or any asbestos. To dispose of any of these materials you need to contact your local council. They will be able to provide you with a contact who can dispose of anything hazardous or not accepted in your skip bin (i.e. food waste).

Skip bins should not be filled any higher than the top of its sides and should be filled in such a manner as to prevent spillage of material from the skip bin either while stationary or in transit.  (Suppliers face prosecution for unsafe or overweight loads).

Most suppliers will be able to deliver a skip bin within 24hrs of ordering. However Bookabin suggest skip bins are booked as far in advance as possible to ensure you are able to get a skip bin that best meets your requirements and price, so for more information on skip bin hire in Auckland, and rubbish skips please visit the website at http://www.bookabin.co.nz .
