In discussing this with a number of skip bin businesses around Australia and from our own experience, the 4m Melbourne skip is the most popular, with the 6m Melbourne bin following it. The 3m skip is the third most popular bin, followed by the 8m skip bin.
For residential applications, the only time we find a very big Melbourne skip bin is required is when a house is being vacated, or significant – almost total clearing of a house is required. Likewise for commercial applications in Melbourne skips bigger than 6 cubic metres are only required for big office strip outs or for clearing out shops in major shopfitting exercises.
Skip Bin Melbourne Requirements
3 cubic metre skip bin
The 3m bin is used generally for small residential tidy ups, or partial office clean ups. It is generally used after a small residential job has been completed (such as the installation of a new kitchen) and the left over material needs to be disposed of. For small garage declutters the 3m Melbourne skip is generally sufficient, but we often recommend the 4m skip bin, as it costs only slightly more, and allows some room for miscalculation.
4 cubic metre skip bin
The 4m Melbourne skip bin is our most common size. This skip bin is ideal for most house declutters, full garage clean outs, back garden tidy ups, commercial office clean outs, and residential spring cleaning. For building applications this skip is also ideal for kitchen replacements and bathroom refreshing. In the US 4 cubic metres is 6 cubic yards, and even in our Los Angeles Dumpster business the four metre (6 yard) dumpster rental bin is the most frequently used. So whether it is called a skip bin or a dumpster, the same sizes seem to apply across the world.
6 cubic metre Melbourne skip hire bin
The 6m skip is generally used for significant house moves where years of accumulated junk needs to be disposed of. The 6m Melbourne skip is also deployed for thorough house clear outs, and can accommodate large quantities of furniture and household junk.
