Rear-Lift Bin Hire Guide

Rear-lift bins fit tight spaces and shared bin rooms. Here is how to choose sizes and lift frequency without overpaying.

Sizes and best fit

• 240L: Small offices, cafes with light prep waste; daily or 3-4x weekly.
• 360L: Busy offices, small retailers; good for mixed staff waste.
• 660L: Shared tenancies or moderate hospitality; still fits most bin rooms.
• 1100L: Higher volume sites; check lifts and door clearances before choosing.

Lift frequency

• Aim for 60-80% full at pickup.
• Under 60% for two weeks: drop a lift.
• Over 80% twice: add a lift before upsizing.

Avoid common issues

• Keep lids closed to stop rain adding weight.
• Place commingled away from sinks to reduce liquid contamination.
• Clear access on collection days; blocked access often incurs return fees.
