Garden clean-ups made simple

Whether it's a big weekend in the garden, a storm clean-up or clearing an overgrown block, a green waste skip is the most cost-effective way to get rid of it. Because it's pure greenery, it's recycled into mulch rather than going to landfill — better for the hip pocket and better for Townsville.

Green waste skips come with a generous 4-day hire, fixed pricing and the same fast, friendly local delivery we're known for. Place the bin where you need it, fill it as you go, and we'll take it away.

  • ✓ From $110 (ex GST) for a 2m³
  • ✓ 4-day hire as standard
  • ✓ Recycled into mulch — landfill-free

Green waste skip bins, Townsville-wide

Gardens in North Queensland grow fast — and after a big weekend of pruning, a storm, or cyclone-season preparation, the green waste piles up quickly. A dedicated green waste skip is the cheapest, easiest way to clear it. Because the load is 100% clean organic material, it's sent to local organic sorting and recycling streams to be turned into mulch rather than going to landfill — better for your wallet and better for Townsville. That's why our green waste rates are noticeably lower than mixed general waste hire.

Green waste skip bins Townsville-wide suit lawn clippings, hedge and tree prunings, palm fronds, leaves, weeds, woodchips and soft garden trimmings. To keep the discounted rate, the bin must stay free of soil, rocks, treated or painted timber, stumps, large logs and any household rubbish — those belong in a general waste skip. Loads come with a focused 4-day hire, which is plenty for most weekend projects and stops organic material sitting and breaking down in the tropical heat. Prices start at $110 for a 2m³ — fixed, ex GST, with no hidden extras.

Storm season, palm fronds and tropical clean-ups

Townsville's wet season and the lead-up to cyclone season are the busiest times for green waste. Clearing overhanging branches, thinning palms and tidying the yard before a storm reduces the debris that can become dangerous in high winds — and a skip on the driveway makes the job far quicker than bagging it up. Our small trucks place the bin right where you're working, whether that's a compact courtyard in Hermit Park or an acreage block on the Northern Beaches.

Common questions

How long can I keep the skip bin at my property?

Our standard hire periods are tailored explicitly to the type of waste you are disposing of to keep your costs down. General mixed-waste skip bins come with a flexible 7-day hire period included in your flat rate, allowing you to clean out your garage or renovation site at your own pace. Dedicated green-waste skip bins feature a focused 4-day hire period, which is ideal for weekend garden clean-ups before organic vegetation begins to sit too long in the intense North Queensland tropical heat.

How do I pay for my skip bin?

Payment is required on delivery. Our drivers carry Square card facilities, so you can tap or swipe on the spot when your skip arrives. If it suits you better, we can also take payment over the phone — there is a range of options, but we usually take payment on delivery.

What suburbs across Townsville do you deliver skip bins to?

Green Ant Skips provides prompt, friendly delivery six days a week (Monday to Saturday) right across the entire Townsville region. This includes inner suburbs like North Ward, Hermit Park and South Townsville; high-density residential hubs like Kirwan, Aitkenvale, Annandale and Cranbrook; and the entire Northern Beaches growth corridor (Burdell, Bushland Beach, Deeragun, Jensen and Mount Low). We deliver from Ayr to Ingham, so we also route trucks out to extended regional districts including Kelso, Alligator Creek, Ingham, Ayr, Home Hill and Balgal Beach — extra charges apply on those outlying runs, so give us a call for a quick quote.

Can I put a mixture of garden green waste and general household junk in the same bin?

If you have a combination of green waste and general household junk, you must book a General Waste Skip Bin. Our highly discounted Green Waste rates are strictly reserved for 100% clean organic garden material (like tree branches, lawn clippings and palm fronds) because these loads are channelled directly into local organic sorting and recycling streams. Mixing general household plastics, furniture or building materials into a green skip invalidates the load and incurs standard general waste sorting fees.

What items are strictly prohibited from being placed in your skip bins?

To comply with Queensland environmental protection regulations and local landfill safety policies, we cannot accept hazardous materials. This includes asbestos, tyres, wet chemical paints, gas cylinders, liquid oils, batteries and biological waste. If you are unsure about a specific item on your property cleanup, please call us directly before loading it into your bin.
