Wheelie Bin Service for Small Business

Rear-lift bins that fit tight sites: how to choose 240L vs 360L vs 660L, set pickup days, and avoid overflow fees.

Wheelie Bin Service for Small Business

Small sites need bins that fit doorways, laneways, and basements. Here is a simple way to choose rear-lift bins and pickup days without overpaying.

Pick the right size

  • 240L: Small offices or cafes with light waste; good for daily or 3-4x weekly.
  • 360L: Busier offices, small retailers; handles coffee cups and lunch waste.
  • 660L: Shared tenancies or higher volume; still fits most bin rooms.
  • 1100L: Only if you have space and a lift that fits; check clearances first.

Frequency rules of thumb

  • Under 60% full for two weeks: drop a pickup.
  • Over 80% full twice: add a pickup before upsizing.
  • Summer: consider one extra organics/general pickup to control odour.

Avoid common fees

  • Keep lids closed to stop rain adding weight.
  • Label bins with examples of what is allowed; keep liquids out of commingled.
  • Clear access on collection days; blocked access is the top cause of return charges.

Need a right-sized rear-lift plan? Contact us with photos of your bin room and current pickups. We will propose sizes, days, and a contamination policy in plain English.
