Not sure which bin size your Canberra business needs? 240L, 660L, and 1100L bins compared with pricing, dimensions, and recommendations by business type.
Choosing the right bin size is the single most important decision in commercial waste management. Too small and it overflows. Too large and you are paying for empty space.
Count your bags. For one week, count how many standard garbage bags your business fills. That tells you exactly which size you need.
| Bags per week | Bin size | Cost/week | |---------------|----------|-----------| | 1-5 | 240L | $39 exc GST | | 6-15 | 660L | $53 exc GST | | 16-25 | 1100L | $59 exc GST | | 25+ | Multiple 1100L | From $118 exc GST |
Government offices and departments: Many Canberra government offices need to comply with the ACT Government's waste reduction targets. Separating cardboard and recyclables into a dedicated bin reduces landfill costs and helps meet targets.
Parliamentary Triangle businesses: Access can be restricted around Parliament House and national institutions. Let us know if your premises has unusual access requirements and we will schedule accordingly.
If you start with a 240L and outgrow it, switching to a 660L takes one phone call. No fees. No hassle.
