Pick by the job rather than the heap. The table shows what fits and what the Gungahlin price is today.
| Bin size | Typical job & waste type | From (incl. GST) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 m³ | Packaging and offcuts from a new-build move-in. | From $308.34 |
| 2 m³ | A new-turf garden clear, or a small fit-out tidy. Best for heavy loads: soil, brick, tile. | From $321.58 |
| 3 m³ | A landscaping job, or a Franklin or Harrison room reno. | From $358.55 |
| 4 m³ | A new-estate builder's clean-up, or a whole-house declutter in Ngunnawal or Amaroo. | From $433.09 |
| 6 m³ | A display-village or new-build construction job, general or heavy waste. | From $594.65 |
| 8 m³ | A full new-home build site, or a Denman Prospect or Coombs house extension. | From $813.68 |
A small job only? Gungahlin skip bags open from $199.00 for 1 m³, drop-off and pick-up covered.
Each figure is a skip bin with no gate, general waste, a 7-day hire, incl. GST. A gate or a heavy load prices above it. The ACT charges heavy waste by weight, so a load of building rubble costs more than the same bin of light waste. Punch in a postcode for the figure on your street.

Gungahlin runs from an established town centre out through a run of new-build estates still under construction, so it pays to price your exact suburb.

Short answer: on your own block, no. On the verge, footpath or road, yes, and that's one territory process through Access Canberra and Transport Canberra and City Services. The ACT has no local councils, so a brand-new Coombs building site and an older Franklin driveway follow the same rules. On active construction sites, check with your builder about who books the skip before you double up.
Gungahlin loads mostly head to the territory's nearer resource centre, with the levy and gate fees built into your price.
The closest of the territory's two sites, the usual destination for Gungahlin loads.
The southern site, used by some suppliers depending on the job.
On-site facilities for paint, gas bottles, batteries and other problem waste.
Canberra's fastest-growing district shapes what fills a skip here — a lot of it building, not just clearing out.
The table above carries the live figure for Gungahlin and the Molonglo growth corridor. Weight drives the bill more than bin size, so a heavy load of building rubble from a new-estate build in Bonner or Casey costs more than the same bin of light waste. Your postcode pulls the current number.
On your own block, no. On the verge, footpath or road, yes, and it's one territory process through Access Canberra and Transport Canberra and City Services, the same in a brand-new Moncrieff street as an older Franklin one.
Mitchell Resource Management Centre, the closest of the territory's two resource centres, takes most Gungahlin loads. Recoverable material is pulled out before landfill, and clean fill and green waste are handled apart.
Yes, and it's one of the most common Gungahlin jobs. Builders and owner-builders in Forde, Wright, Coombs and Denman Prospect regularly need a skip on site for packaging, offcuts and general construction waste, alongside the household bin for the fit-out.
Asbestos is less common here given how new the suburb is, but paint, gas bottles, chemicals, batteries and tyres are still kept out of every skip and need a separate drop-off.
New-build construction and builders' clean-up waste leads the list, given how fast Gungahlin, Bonner and Amaroo have grown. Landscaping waste for freshly turfed gardens, packaging from house move-ins, and Ngunnawal or Harrison home extensions round it out.
