The size you need comes down to the job, not the pile. The table shows what each bin swallows and what it costs in Perth.
| Bin size | Typical job & waste type | From (incl. GST) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 m³ | A spare room cleared, or the back verge tidied up. | From $343.69 |
| 2 m³ | A bathroom strip-out, a garage clear-out, or about eight wheelbarrow loads. Best for heavy waste: soil, sand, brick, concrete. | From $356.93 |
| 3 m³ | A solid garden tidy, or a single room taken back to the floor. | From $432.83 |
| 4 m³ | A small renovation, a deck demo, or a big whole-house declutter. General or heavy waste, check the heavy-waste cap. | From $496.83 |
| 6 m³ | A kitchen or full-room renovation, or a whole-garden overhaul. | From $691.49 |
| 8 m³ | A full home clear-out or a build, minus the heavy rubble. Light, bulky waste: furniture, timber, packaging. | From $865.27 |
Too little for a skip? Perth skip bags start at $199.00 for 1 m³, with delivery and collection covered.
Each figure covers a skip bin without a gate, general waste, seven days, incl. GST. Gated bins and heavy waste are quoted separately. Sand and limestone spoil is far denser than a household clear-out, and because WA charges by the tonne, that gap shows in the price. Enter a postcode for your address.

Here's the short version. On your own land, no permit. On the verge, footpath or road, yes. Greater Perth is carved into about 30 councils, so the exact rule follows your suburb. The City of Perth calls it an Obstruction Permit and asks for around five business days plus public-liability cover. If you're stuck, your supplier handles these every week and can point you the right way.
The metro's waste is split across three regional networks, and the tip fees plus WA's per-tonne levy are baked into what you pay.
On Marmion Avenue, run by the Mindarie councils. Takes household asbestos free on set days.
One of WA's largest sites, run by the Eastern Metropolitan councils.
The southern recovery centre plus Cockburn's Henderson park.
Big blocks, backyard pools and a building boom give Perth its own mix of skip jobs.
Current Perth prices for each bin size sit in the table on this page, read live from the booking system. Weight is the real lever on price. WA charges a landfill levy on every tonne, so a bin of wet sand or broken brick costs more than the same bin of light household clutter. Put your postcode in and you'll see the live figure for your street, not a rough guess.
Only if it sits on public land. Keep the bin on your own driveway or block and there's no permit. Put it on the verge, footpath or road and you'll need council approval. Greater Perth is carved into about 30 councils, so the rule follows your suburb. In the City of Perth it's an Obstruction Permit that takes about five business days, so plan ahead. Your supplier can tell you what your council wants.
It comes down to which side of the river you're on. Loads from the north head to Tamala Park on Marmion Avenue, run by the Mindarie councils. The eastern suburbs and hills feed Red Hill, one of the state's biggest sites. Down south it's the Canning Vale recovery centre and Henderson in Cockburn. Suppliers build those tip fees and the WA levy into the price, which is why a heavy load lands higher.
Yes, but heavy material goes in the smaller bins, not the big ones. Most of Perth sits on the sandy Swan Coastal Plain, and sand gets heavy the moment it's wet, so a 2m³ or 3m³ heavy-waste bin is the right call for soil, pavers or rubble. Tell your supplier what you're loading and they'll match the bin to the weight.
Asbestos is the big one. In WA you can only remove up to 10 square metres of bonded asbestos yourself, double-wrapped in thick plastic and labelled, then dropped at a licensed site. Tamala Park takes household asbestos free on set days. Gas bottles, paint, chemicals, batteries and e-waste stay out of the skip too and go to a hazardous-waste drop-off.
Same-day drop-off happens across a lot of Perth if you book early and the truck can reach the spot. Access counts for more here than people expect. Narrow beach-suburb streets and steep hills blocks can decide where a bin actually sits, so mention tight access when you book. Enter your postcode to see today's options near you.
No. Tipaload is the marketplace, not the truck. We line up local Perth suppliers side by side so you can weigh price, size and availability for your postcode, then book the one that fits. The bin arrives from a local operator, not from us.
