GREEN WASTE COLLECTION

Responsible & Efficient: Hardfill Waste Disposal

Hardfill includes concrete, bricks, paving stones, and cement from residential projects. Rather than sending this material to a landfill, much of it is crushed and repurposed as a compacted base for road construction, reducing waste and supporting sustainability efforts.

 

To ensure correct processing, hardfill must not be mixed with green waste or household rubbish. We also accept clean soil, but it must be separated. If mixed with other materials, additional post-processing fees may apply.

 

What Hardfill Skips Cannot Accept:

  • Concrete with metal reinforcing mesh
  • Concrete attached to particleboard
  • Roofing tiles, floor tiles, or any material with attached tiles

Skips & Gantry Bins for Every Cleanup

RESIDENTIAL WASTE REMOVAL – SKIPS & GANTRY BINS FOR EVERY CLEANUP

Big clean-ups, DIY renovations and garden overhauls require the right waste solution. Our skip and gantry bins are available for short-term and long-term hire, with flexible collection schedules and bin replacement options to suit your needs.

General Waste Bins

From small-scale rubbish removal to larger waste loads, we provide skip bins in 3m³, 4.5m³, and 7.5m³ sizes. These are perfect for clearing out household clutter, garden debris and light construction materials, helping you tidy up efficiently without multiple trips to the dump.

Hardfill Skip Bins

Designed to handle dense and heavy materials, our 3m³ hardfill skips are the best option for getting rid of concrete, bricks, sand and soil. Whether you’re pulling up a driveway, landscaping, or working on a home renovation, these bins keep disposal simple and compliant with waste management guidelines.

Green Waste Bins

Our 3m³ to 7.5m³ green waste bins provide a dedicated space for green waste collection. This includes tree prunings, hedge trimmings, lawn clippings and other organic waste. For smooth processing, branches must be under 100mm in diameter and no non-compostable materials should be mixed in.

Sustainable Green Waste Removal

Green waste skips are specifically designed for organic garden materials. Keeping this waste separate ensures it can be turned into nutrient-rich compost rather than taking up space in a landfill.

Acceptable Green Waste:

  • Tree branches (up to 100mm diameter)
  • Lawn clippings, hedge trimmings, rose prunings
  • Fresh garden waste such as leaves and shrubs

What Cannot Be Included in Green Waste Bins:

  • Mixed loads containing general waste or hardfill
  • Tree stumps and thick branches over 100mm in diameter
  • Bamboo, cabbage tree leaves, toi toi, palm fronds
  • Gorse, broom in seed, oxalis
  • Soil-heavy roots, compost heaps or animal manure

If these materials are mixed in, they must be disposed of as general waste.

Separating Waste: Recycling

If your waste includes recyclable materials, we recommend hiring a skip specifically for this purpose. Proper sorting helps keep valuable materials out of landfills and ensures they are repurposed efficiently.

Recyclable Items:

  • Plastic bottles & bags
  • Glass bottles
  • Cardboard & packaging
  • Newspapers, magazines, and papers
  • Aluminium & steel cans

Recyclable waste should be free from contamination and separated from general rubbish to maintain quality and usability.

What Goes in Your Red Bin: General Waste

For any waste that does not fit into green waste, hardfill or recycling categories, a general waste skip is the best choice. These bins handle household clutter, light construction debris and non-recyclable materials with ease.
