What can I put in my EnviroBin?

It’s quite simple really, all of your general green waste from your yard including grass clippings, branches, leaves and palm fronds can go into your green waste wheelie bin. To make the most of your EnviroBin, chop up your palm fronds to give you more room for the other bits.

Things that can’t go in your EnviroBin: large logs, dirt/soil, plastic of any kind, bricks, rocks, building material, large tree stumps, car parts, food, perishables, dead animals, bark chips, glass, compost, kitty litter, dog droppings, human excrement – no sanitary napkins, nappies or liners.

Please do not overload the bin, bins over 100kg can not be lifted.

Are there any other charges?

Do you offer green waste bags as well as green waste bins?

In the very beginning, our company started out offering green waste bags and green waste sacks. We soon realised that our customers preferred a wheelie bin green waste solution to the rigid and sometimes unattractive green bags. Green waste wheelie bins are portable – wheel it around while you trim and prune your garden, can be stored out of sight – no more unattractive green bags and green sacks, and conveniently wheeled to the kerbside for your scheduled green waste collection.

I have a big yard, I think I might need more than one EnviroBin, is that ok?

Of course, just let us know and we can arrange an extra green waste wheelie bin to be delivered.

What if I don’t need a collection for the fortnight?

No problem, just let us know prior to 4pm the day before your scheduled collection and we will put a hold on your pick up until your next scheduled collection. It is important to let us know as if notice isn’t received we will attend your house for collection and you will be invoiced. As we are a small business it is not economical for us to attend for non collections.
You can skip a pick up only if you have a 240L wheelie bin. No Skipping for 360L wheelie bins sorry.

Am I locked into a contract for a set time?

No, there are no contract periods, just phone us in advance to advise if you wish to cancel your collections.

I’m moving house, can I take my EnviroBin with me and continue having it collected?

Yes, most definitely. Just let us know in advance and we will change your collections from the date you advise to your new address.

I’m a landlord & would like an EnviroBin set up at my property for my tenants to use, is this ok?

Of course! A green waste wheelie bin is a very convenient solution for your tenants and avoids using unattractive green waste bins and garden sacks that aren’t portable and will detract from your investment Contact EnviroBins to get your service started. Chances are you will also be able to claim it back at tax time!

When do I put my EnviroBin out?

Please refer to the Collection Dates schedule for your area – your bin needs to be out on the kerbside (where you would normally put your general garbage wheelie bin) on the morning of your collection day. Please make sure it is out nice and early as collections can be as early as 6am. Obviously it makes sense to put it out ready the night before your collection.
