A standard Yarra skip bin permit covers a bin in a legal parking bay where access isn't restricted. A bin in a laneway, or anywhere it restricts access, needs a road or footpath occupation permit instead, which matters in Fitzroy, Collingwood and Richmond's many lanes.
Private property: A bin within your property does not need a Yarra permit, though most inner-city homes have no room for one.
Public land: A bin on the road must sit in a legal parking bay, not in a clearway, no stopping area, loading zone or disabled bay, and must follow VicRoads placement guidelines.
Skip Bin Hire Duration and Conditions
Parking is tight in Yarra, so most bins stay for a few days. Tell us your dates when you book so the permit covers them. Always check with Yarra 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.
