Sydney Commercial Bin Hire Pricing Explained

Sydney businesses often see a wide price range for the same bin sizes. Here's how pricing really works and what you should budget for.

What drives price

  • Bin type and size: Rear-lift (240L-1100L) vs front-lift (1.5m^3-4.5m^3). Larger bins lower per-litre cost.
  • Frequency: More pickups per week reduce per-pickup price but raise monthly total.
  • Access: Basements, tight turns, or time-restricted docks can add fees.
  • Waste stream: Cardboard and commingled are cheaper than general waste; contamination flips that fast.
  • Contamination risk: Regular contamination incurs load rejection or extra processing fees.

Typical Sydney price bands (guidance only)

  • 240L rear-lift general: $18-$30 per lift
  • 660L rear-lift general: $35-$55 per lift
  • 1100L rear-lift general: $55-$85 per lift
  • 1.5m^3 front-lift general: $70-$110 per lift
  • 3.0m^3 front-lift general: $110-$170 per lift
  • 4.5m^3 front-lift general: $150-$220 per lift
  • Cardboard and commingled typically 15-35% less per lift when kept clean.

How to avoid bill shock

  • Flatten cardboard and keep liquids out of commingled to prevent contamination charges.
  • Keep bin areas clear so drivers can service; blocked access often triggers return fees.
  • Right-size: if bins are half full on average, drop a pickup before reducing bin size.
  • Lock bins in mixed-use sites to prevent illegal dumping.
