FlexiBin Overview

FlexiBins are a great choice for smaller spaces or when you have less waste than a skip bin requires. Purchase a FlexiBin from a local retailer, and we'll collect it once you’ve scheduled a pick-up.

Service Guidelines

  • Bin placement and access

    • Do not place your FlexiBin within 4 metres of trees or powerlines. 
    • Do not place your FlexiBin more than 4 metres from the kerb or driveway. 
    • Driveways must be at least 4 metres wide and 9 metres high clearance.  
    • Do not overfill your FlexiBin.  
    • Collections are only available within 15km of selected retail stores.

  • Heavy materials
