Areas We Deliver Skip Bins To
We service all of Auckland’s North Shore from our Devonport base, with particularly fast delivery times to nearby suburbs. Our local knowledge means we understand the narrow streets, steep driveways, and access challenges that come with North Shore properties. We require a minimum 2.5 metres driveway width for our truck, but our experienced drivers know how to work with challenging Auckland sections.
For neighbouring areas, check out our services in Mairangi Bay and Rothesay Bay where we provide the same reliable service.
“The beauty of being locally based is that we understand North Shore properties. We know which streets have parking restrictions, where the overhead lines are low, and how to navigate those tricky Murrays Bay driveways,” shares our founder who has personally delivered to thousands of local homes over the years.
Common Questions
How long can I keep the skip bin?
Our standard hire period is 3+ days, giving you plenty of time to complete your project without rushing. If you need it longer, just give us a call and we’ll arrange an extension that works for your timeline.
What happens if I exceed the weight limit?
We charge $20.00 including GST per 100kgs over the limit. Our team will let you know before collection if there are any excess weight charges, so there are no surprises on your bill.
Do you really hand-sort everything?
Absolutely. Every skip that comes back to our Devonport facility gets hand-sorted by our team. This intensive process is why we achieve 78% waste diversion from landfill, compared to most waste companies who send everything straight to landfill.
Can I mix different types of waste in one skip?
Yes, you can mix general waste types in our skips. However, hazardous materials like paint, chemicals, or asbestos cannot be accepted. Our hand-sorting process means we can separate mixed loads effectively, though pure loads help us recycle more efficiently.
Managing waste during home projects doesn’t have to be complicated. With our local knowledge, environmental focus, and reliable service, we take the stress out of waste disposal so you can focus on what matters most, getting your project completed on time and on budget. The difference between a smooth renovation and a stressful one often comes down to having the right support team, and we’re here to be part of your success story.
