Liquid or oily waste?

Never put liquids in a Skip-It bin. Pump-It assesses them for vacuum-tanker collection.

Waste questions

Before loading.

What if my item is not on either list?

Send a photo or description before loading. The team will confirm whether it can go in the bin.

Can I mix waste types?

Describe mixed loads before booking; the team must confirm them. Concrete and dirt can go in 2, 3 or 4 m³ bins, never larger bins. Bricks go in the nominated 3 m³ bin.

Why no liquids?

Liquids need a vacuum tanker, not a skip. Call Pump-It on 1800 088 890.
