Choosing the right skip bin size for your needs
Skip bin sizes
Selecting the appropriate skip bin size is crucial for the success of any waste disposal project in Melbourne, be it a small home renovation or a large commercial construction. Our range starts from compact 2.5M3 bins, suitable for minor projects such as garden clean-ups or small household decluttering tasks, up to 25M3 bins designed for substantial industrial waste needs. This guide aims to help you make an informed decision, ensuring you choose a bin that not only accommodates all your waste but also optimises disposal costs by avoiding under or overestimation of your waste volume.
Skip bin types
Small skip bins for minor projects
Our small skip bins, available in 2.5M3 and 3M3 sizes, are perfect for short-term projects that generate a modest amount of waste. The 2.5M3 bin, with dimensions approximately 2.4m at the top, 1.8m at the bottom, 1.4m in length, and 0.9m in height, is ideal for small garden clean-ups or minor home renovations. The slightly larger 3M3 bin provides extra space for projects with a bit more waste, measuring around 2.2m at the top, 1.8m at the bottom, 1.4m in width, and 1.4m in height, making it suitable for room clear-outs or smaller construction debris.
Need help disposing of your waste?
Medium skip bins for residential and commercial use
For larger undertakings that require more substantial waste management solutions, our medium-sized skip bins, including the 4M3 and 6M3 options, offer the perfect balance between size and functionality. The 4M3 bin is approximately 2.5m long, 1.5m wide, and 1.1m high, catering well to medium-sized renovations or office cleanouts. The 6M3 bin, further details of which are provided upon inquiry, can handle even more considerable amounts of waste, ideal for bigger residential renovations or commercial waste disposal tasks. These bins provide ample space for disposing of larger items and are frequently chosen for their versatility and capacity.
Large skip bins for major projects
For significant construction projects, extensive commercial renovations, and large-scale cleanups, our large skip bins are the ideal choice. Offering 8M3, 10M3, and 12M3 options, these bins are designed to accommodate the substantial waste volumes generated by major projects. For example, our 8M3 bin, with dimensions of approximately 4.0m long, 2.5m wide, and between 0.8m to 0.95m high, is suitable for sizable construction debris and large quantities of commercial waste. The 10M3 and 12M3 bins provide even greater capacity, ensuring that even the largest projects can manage their waste efficiently and effectively.
Extra-large skip bins for industrial waste
DC Waste Management's extra-large skip bins, including sizes of 14M3, 16M3, 20M3, and 25M3, cater to the needs of industrial sites and major construction projects requiring extensive waste management solutions. These bins are specifically designed for the disposal of vast amounts of industrial waste, large construction sites, and major commercial projects. For instance, our 20M3 bin, measuring approximately 5m long, 2.5m wide, and between 1.8m to 2.2m high, is capable of handling a wide range of industrial waste types, from bulky items to high volumes of debris, ensuring that your project remains clean and compliant with waste management regulations.
Approximate dimensions and usage guidelines
It's important to note that the dimensions provided for our recycling, waste, and skip bins are approximates and should be used as a guide only.

Our team is available to provide guidance and recommendations based on your specific waste disposal needs, ensuring you receive a bin that best suits your project's requirements. This approach helps maximise efficiency in waste management and supports our commitment to environmental sustainability by encouraging appropriate waste sorting and recycling wherever possible.

Understanding the logistics of skip bin placement is crucial, especially when bins need to be placed on public property such as roads or nature strips. DC Waste Management simplifies this process by obtaining the necessary permits on behalf of our clients. The cost and requirements for permits vary depending on the local council, but our team manages all aspects of this process, providing clients with a hassle-free experience and ensuring all placements comply with local regulations.
