Our trucks are heavy and if required to drive across your grass may damage it or your in-ground watering system. If you have any concerns about the placement of the bins please let us know when placing your order and we can work with you to prevent any damage.
The client is solely responsible for the legality of the skip bin being placed at the agreed location as per our terms. This includes but is not limited to: private property, government property, public places including reserves, driveways, laneways and roadways. The skip bin must not create a hazard for pedestrians or road users. We cannot place a skip bin on a footpath or where it may interrupt traffic. If you are unsure about the placement of your bin, please let us know at the time of booking.
