Need to get rid of leaves, branches, or grass clippings? Our Green Waste Bins make garden clean-ups in Melbourne easy and eco-friendly. Quick Bin Hire provides dedicated green waste skip bins so you can dispose of your yard debris without mixing it with general rubbish. Whether you’re pruning the backyard or clearing out storm debris, our team will drop off a skip bin for all your organic waste and have it taken away in no time.

Using a green waste bin is not only convenient – it’s also great for the environment. We ensure your garden waste is recycled into compost or mulch whenever possible, rather than ending up in landfill. Keep your yard tidy and help Melbourne stay green by using our specialized bins for organic waste.

What Can Go in a Green Waste Bin?

• Garden vegetation: Grass clippings, leaves, weeds, flowers, and plant prunings.

• Tree cuttings: Small branches, twigs, hedge trimmings, and palm fronds – ideally cut larger limbs down (under ~15cm diameter) to fit in the bin.

• Organic yard debris: Untreated wood from the garden (fallen branches or logs under 15cm thick) and other organic plant matter.

What Not to Put in a Green Waste Bin

• General waste or plastic: No household garbage, plastic bags, or any non-organic materials.

• Soil, rocks, or bricks: Dirt and stones are not allowed (a little soil on roots is okay, but for lots of dirt you’ll need a soil bin).

• Treated or painted timber: Only raw wood is accepted – no treated/chemically-treated wood or painted timber.

• Food scraps: This bin is for garden waste only – no kitchen food waste (check your council’s compost program for those).

Green Waste Bin FAQs

Q: Can I put soil or dirt in a green waste skip?
A: It’s best to keep soil out of your green waste bin. A small amount of dirt clinging to plant roots is fine, but if you have piles of soil or clay, you’ll need a separate Soil/Dirt Bin. Soil is heavy and needs different disposal.

Q: What happens to the green waste after collection?
A: We take it to a Melbourne recycling facility that turns your green waste into mulch or compost. Your garden offcuts get reused instead of going to landfill.
