Ask each businessQuote AQuote BQuote C
BusinessIts name, and who you spoke to.
01What size is the bin, in cubic metres?Ask for the figure rather than a name like small or large, so bins from different businesses line up.
02Which waste can go in it, and which can't?Ask what happens if something on their list ends up in the bin.
03Is there a weight limit?And what the charge is if the load goes over it.
04How full can it be filled?Ask what happens if the load sits above the sides on collection day.
05How many days of hire does the price include?And the charge for each extra day.
06Can it sit on my driveway, or will it go on the road?If it has to go on the street, ask who arranges any permission it needs, and what that adds.
07What does the truck need to reach the spot?A narrow gate, low wires or soft ground can change where the bin can go.
08Is this the full price?Delivery, collection and tipping, all in one figure.
Ask each business the same questions and write the answers side by side. Printed, the sheet fills one page, with a column for each of three quotes.From skipbinsadelaide.com.au, a concept page.

What changes the price

Two quotes for the same clean-up can differ because each business has assumed a different bin size, kind of waste or number of days. Writing their answers in one row makes those assumptions plain.

Say what you are throwing out before you ask for a price. Garden waste, mixed household rubbish, and soil or rubble may each be quoted differently, and a bin booked for one kind may not take another.

Before the bin arrives

Clear the spot where it will sit and make sure a truck can back up to it. If the bin is going on a driveway, ask the business how they protect the surface underneath.

Keep the sheet with the booking and the business's own quote, so you can check the day against both.

Where to check

  • ABN Lookup, Australian Business Register

    Shows whether a business's ABN is active or cancelled, its business type and its GST status, and the Register says the public can use it to check a business before buying.
