How skip bin rubbish removal works

One delivery, one collection. Rubbish removal Townsville households have relied on for over 15 years comes down to a bin on site for the whole job, so nothing is loaded twice and nothing waits in a pile for the next tip run.

  1. 1

    We drop the bin

    Book online or by phone and we deliver Monday to Saturday, often the same day. Small trucks place the skip close to the job.

  2. 2

    You fill it

    Every skip has a walk-in door, so bulky and heavy items go in on foot. Seven days for general waste, four for green waste.

  3. 3

    We take it away

    Call when it is full or let the hire run its course. We collect the bin and the tip run is ours, not yours.

Rubbish removal Townsville-wide, on your schedule

A skip bin turns rubbish removal Townsville-wide into one job instead of a string of trailer runs. Rather than loading up, queuing at the transfer station and paying a gate fee each trip, you have a bin on site from the first day to the last. Fill it over a weekend or across a week-long renovation, then call us when it is full. Every skip has a walk-in door, so a lounge suite, a fridge or a stack of plasterboard goes in on foot rather than over the side. Our trucks are compact enough for tight driveways in Kirwan and Aitkenvale and for acreage tracks on the Northern Beaches, and we place the bin where the work is happening.

Skip bin or a rubbish removal truck?

Townsville has two ways to handle waste removal. A rubbish removal crew turns up, loads their truck for you and leaves within the hour, and you pay for the labour and the volume they take. A skip is a fixed hire price for a set number of days, and the loading is yours. If you can carry things to the driveway and want the price settled before the bin arrives, a skip suits. If you need the lifting done for you, a crew is the better fit, and we will tell you so when you call.

Waste removal for clean-outs, renovations and storm season

Mixed loads go in a general waste skip on a 7-day hire: a rental clear-out in Annandale, a bathroom or kitchen renovation, a shop refit, or the shed that has not been opened since the last wet season. Clean garden material goes in a green waste skip on a 4-day hire and is recycled into mulch, which is why the rate is lower. Mixing household rubbish into a green skip reclassifies the load as general waste, so keep the two apart if you have both. Each size carries a weight allowance for dense loads like soil, brick and concrete; our team explains the limits at delivery, and there is a dedicated concrete and tiles skip for heavy single-material loads. Mattresses are accepted but attract a charge on top of the hire, so mention them when you book. Anything on the banned list above goes to Townsville City Council's waste and recycling drop-off points instead.

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.

Are there any items that cost extra to put in a skip bin?

Yes — mattresses attract an additional charge for each one, because they cannot go into general landfill with the rest of a mixed load and have to be separated and processed on their own. We are happy to take them, we just need to know they are going in. Let us know when you book, or mention it to the driver on delivery, and we will confirm the cost up front rather than surprising you on the invoice. If you have anything else unusual — a fridge, a large appliance, or a load that is mostly soil, brick or concrete — give us a call on 0439 413 125 and we will tell you exactly where you stand before the bin arrives.

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.
