Disposing of rubbish from your residential or commercial property is never as easy as generating it. If you need professional assistance, like so many other property owners do, you can always turn to skip bin rental companies. Usually, these companies will supply you with a rental skip bin for you to put in your waste and then pick it up on an agreed date when you are done with your rubbish removal. But collection is often based upon the fulfilment of certain pre-agreed conditions included in the terms of service. Here's a look at what most skip bin rental service providers in Australia usually require of bin users.
Know what's allowable
Knowing what should and shouldn't go into your bin will save you the disappointment of a failed collection. There are different bin types for virtually every sort of waste, be it general waste, green waste or any other waste type. If all waste items were to be allowed to go into a single bin, the waste hauled away would be contaminated. This would make it difficult to recycle the reusable materials and everything would have to end up in the landfill, where it could lead to environmental pollution. All this can be avoided by hiring the right bin for every waste type, and using each bin for the intended purpose only.
Never, ever overfill your bin
Many skip bins come with a lid you can close once you are done throwing your rubbish inside. If the lid can't fully close with the rubbish placed inside, it is an indication you ordered a bin size that is too small for your requirement or maybe your waste volumes increased during your rubbish removal. Whatever the case, your bin rental service will not take away any overfilled bin. But they will be happy to provide you with an extra or larger waste container to cater for your new requirements.
Avoid changing the bin's position
The company you have asked to deliver your rental skip bin will place the bin at any location you want provided it is convenient for retrieval. If, on the day of pickup, the company finds that you have moved the bin from the initial position, and that the new position is difficult to access, they may refuse to pick it up until the bin is moved back to its original position or moved to another convenient collection point.

We have the worst possums in the world in my street. They are always trying to get into our garbage bin, but once they are in they don't eat much at all: They just drag rubbish around the yard looking for fruit scraps. It attracts flies and looks (and smells) terrible. I have tried nearly everything you can think of to try and discourage them, but the only thing that works is having air tight garbage bins that they can't lift the lids on. This blog has some tips on the best types of garbage bins for keeping possums and other wildlife out of your rubbish.
