Bundoora mixes established family homes with newer estates and student rentals around La Trobe University. We drop bins for house clean-outs, end-of-lease clean-ups and renovations, and most homes have a driveway that fits a bin. Need the bin on the street? We lodge the Banyule permit for you when you book.
Bundoora is in the City of Banyule, so Banyule's rules apply when a bin goes on the road or nature strip. Banyule requires a permit for a skip bin on public land, which includes streets, footpaths, nature strips and public laneways, whether managed by Council or VicRoads. If the bin will close or restrict public access, a courtesy letter must go to every home and business within 150 metres at least 7 days before placement. Council responds to applications within 5 working days.

Private property: A bin on your driveway or elsewhere on private land does not need a Banyule permit.
Road or nature strip: A bin on the road, footpath, nature strip or a public laneway needs a permit before delivery. Banyule impounds bins that restrict public access without approval, and fines can apply. We lodge the permit for you when you book.

Around Banyule, the jobs we see most often are:
Most Banyule customers keep a bin for a few days to a week. Allow extra lead time if your bin needs a courtesy letter, because neighbours must get at least 7 days' notice.
Bins need level, firm ground and enough room for the truck to reach the drop spot. Fill no higher than the rim so the bin can be covered and carried safely. Asbestos, chemicals, paint, gas bottles and batteries cannot go in a skip bin; call us if you are unsure about an item. Not sure which size you need? Compare all our bin sizes.
