Many streets in Northcote, Thornbury and Fairfield are narrow, with limited parking and front gardens rather than driveways. A road permit is often needed, so booking at least 4 days ahead matters here.
Private property: A bin that fits completely on your property does not need a Darebin permit.
Public land: A bin on the road needs a permit, lodged at least 4 days before delivery, and must be placed under Victoria's Code of Practice for waste bins on roadsides.
Skip Bin Hire Duration and Conditions
Most Darebin customers keep a bin for a few days to a week. Book at least 4 days ahead if the bin needs to sit on the street. Always check with Darebin Council to ensure no special events or road closures impact approved bin placement locations.
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.
