Examples of hazardous waste include:
Asbestos, gas bottles, poisons, chemicals, batteries, tyres, fibreglass, insulation, and radioactive material and substances.
How Do I Dispose of Tyres, Rubber and Asbestos?
Tyres and Rubber:
Special equipment is needed to recycle tyres(*1). As a result, we charge a small additional fee for taking your tyres and rubber.
Asbestos:
Due to the serious health risks of asbestos, it must be disposed of carefully and lawfully(*2). As we are not licensed to dispose of asbestos, unfortunately we cannot accept it in our skip bins.
How Do I Dispose of Tyres, Rubber and Asbestos?
According to NSW law, waste must be classified correctly by those who generated the waste(*3). To make this easier for our customers, we offer a range of bin types.
Types of Rubbish
• General household waste.
• Concrete, bricks, and tiles. We do not have restrictions on the weight of bricks, dirt, or concrete.
• Clay, dirt, and sand.
• Green waste (excluding large tree trunks).
Hazardous waste. See ‘What is NOT Allowed in Your Skip Bins?’ and ‘How Do I Dispose of Tyres, Rubber and Asbestos?’ for more information.
