Skips Bins Insights and Statistics
Many interesting skip bins facts help us understand the capacity and weight of skip bins.
How Much Can They Hold?
Our range of skips can hold a maximum of 10 cubic meters of waste, which is as much as 40 standard wheelie bins.
Our Skip Bins Are Heavy
One of our small skips weighs approximately 250kg when it’s empty, and our 10 cubic metre bins weigh a little over 1 ton. We ensure they’re made to last through the harsh Australian weather.
The Evolution of the Skip Bin
The concept of the skip has been in use for centuries, but up until the 1960s, people were using wagons to dispose of their waste. As machinery grew to dominate the waste-disposal industry, we unlocked the ability to both lift and transport skips more effectively. Since then, the use of skips has become an integral method of efficiently helping businesses and individuals dispose of their rubbish more cost-effectively and sustainably.
