Brunswick and Coburg have narrow streets, lanes and tight parking, so a road placement is common. Further north in Glenroy, Hadfield and Fawkner, blocks are bigger and many bins can go on the driveway.
Private property: A bin kept completely on your property does not need a Merri-bek permit or notification.
Public land: A bin on the road must be covered by the bin company's permit and notified to Council before placement.
Skip Bin Hire Duration and Conditions
Most Merri-bek customers keep a bin for a few days to a week. Tell us your dates when you book so the notification matches. Always check with Merri-bek 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.
