Melbourne Commercial Bin Hire Pricing & Coverage

Bin bay space is tight in Melbourne's CBD and inner suburbs. Here's how pricing works, what to expect for common bin sizes, and how to keep costs predictable across the west, north, and bayside corridors.

Price guidance (typical ranges)

  • 240L rear-lift general: $17-$28 per lift
  • 660L rear-lift general: $32-$52 per lift
  • 1100L rear-lift general: $52-$78 per lift
  • 1.5m^3 front-lift general: $65-$105 per lift
  • 3.0m^3 front-lift general: $105-$160 per lift
  • Cardboard/commingled: typically 15-30% lower than general when kept clean.

Common Melbourne scenarios

  • CBD/southbank laneways: 240L/360L, 4-6x weekly to avoid overflows; lockable lids to stop passers-by dumping.
  • Richmond/Collingwood warehouses: 660L/1100L rear-lift 2-3x weekly; add cardboard bin to cut general waste costs.
  • Western logistics hubs (Sunshine, Derrimut): 3.0m^3 front-lift, 2x weekly; baler for cardboard if volumes justify.
  • Bayside hospitality: 360L-660L general + 240L organics 3x weekly; trade waste (grease trap) aligned to council/utility rules.

Avoiding extra fees

  • Keep bin areas clear-blocked access is the #1 cause of return fees.
  • Flatten cardboard and keep liquids out of commingled to avoid contamination charges.
  • Right-size after two weeks of data: if bins average <60% full, drop one pickup; if >80% full, add a pickup before upsizing.

Coverage map

We service CBD, Southbank, Docklands, inner north (Fitzroy, Collingwood, Brunswick), inner west (Footscray, Yarraville), south-east (St Kilda to Moorabbin), and western industrial corridors (Sunshine, Derrimut, Truganina).
