Meadow Heights is a residential suburb of family homes on established estates. Renovations, clean-outs and garden waste are common jobs here. If the bin needs to go on the street, we lodge the Hume permit for you.
Meadow Heights is in the City of Hume, so Hume's rules apply when a bin goes on the road or nature strip. In Hume, the skip bin company must apply to Council for permission before a bin is placed on the road or nature strip. A domestic skip bin needs a casual permit for each placement, lodged through Council's eHume portal. Builders' skips on a building site need an Asset Protection Permit, with a siting plan and proof of public liability insurance.

Private property: A bin placed completely within your property, such as on a driveway or front lawn, does not need a Hume permit.
Road or nature strip: A bin on the road or nature strip needs a permit before delivery. For builders' skips on the nature strip, Hume also requires the company's name and phone number on the bin, reflective tape, and a flashing yellow light on the roadside corner. Council can impound a bin placed dangerously or against its policy and charge the costs to its owner. We lodge the permit for you when you book.

Around Hume, the jobs we see most often are:
Most Hume customers keep their bin for between a few days and a week, and longer hire is available for renovations and building sites. If the bin is on the street, the permit covers that placement, so let us know early if you need to extend.
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.
