Skip Bin Permit Requirements in Whittlesea
Whittlesea requires a permit before a skip bin is placed on Council land, including nature strips, laneways and footpaths. Building site bin permits are lodged through Council's Customer Portal, and Council allows seven working days for processing.

For building sites of 300 square metres or more, Whittlesea no longer issues permits for bins outside the site, so the bin must stay within the site boundary. Smaller building sites can still apply, and each bin kept for the build needs its own permit.
Private property: A bin on private property does not need a Whittlesea permit.
Public land: Building site bins on Council land must be solid-walled with a lockable lid, marked with the company's name and phone number, and fitted with reflective tape. Bins that don't comply are impounded and an infringement is issued.
Skip Bin Hire Duration and Conditions
Builders' bins on Council land must be removed before the permit expires, or within 7 days of building work finishing. For home clean-ups on private land, the hire period is up to you. Always check with Whittlesea 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.
