Areas We Deliver Skip Bins To
From our Devonport base, we deliver skip bins across the North Shore and inner Auckland suburbs. Ponsonby residents love our fast service, but we also serve neighbouring areas like Herne Bay and of course our home base in Devonport.
We deliver Monday to Saturday across all the areas listed on our main skip bins service page. Just remember, we need at least 2.5 metres of driveway width for our truck to access your property safely.
“The best part of my job is seeing materials that would have gone to landfill become useful again. When we hand-sort every skip, we find amazing things that just needed someone to care enough to separate them properly.”
Common Questions
How long can I keep the skip bin?
You can keep your skip for a minimum of 3 days, and we’re flexible about longer periods if you need more time for your project. Just give us a call to arrange an extension.
What happens if I put too much weight in the skip?
We charge $20 including GST per 100kg over the weight limit. It’s better to choose a larger skip if you’re dealing with heavy materials like concrete or soil.
Do you really hand-sort everything?
Yes, absolutely. We hand-sort every skip that comes back to our Devonport facility. It’s more work for us, but it means we divert 78% of waste from landfill instead of just dumping everything like most companies do.
Can you deliver on weekends?
We deliver Monday to Saturday, but not on Sundays. If you need same-day delivery, just call us before 12pm and we’ll get your skip to you that day.
Why are you cheaper than some companies but more expensive than others?
We’re a charity that actually processes waste responsibly rather than just dumping it. The hand-sorting and proper recycling costs more than landfill dumping, but the environmental benefits are worth it. You’re also supporting local community projects with your hire.
