FAQs

What skip bins are suitable for landscapers and gardeners?

Jim’s Skip Bins provides a range of skip bins designed to suit landscaping and gardening work. Depending on your project, this can include green waste skip bins, soil and dirt skip bins, and construction and building waste skip bins. Our team can help you choose the right option based on the waste you generate.

What types of waste do landscapers and gardeners typically produce?

Landscaping and gardening projects often produce green waste such as grass clippings, branches and plants, as well as soil and dirt from excavation work. Some projects may also generate construction waste like bricks, concrete, timber or rubble when removing or installing hard landscaping features.

Can I mix green waste, soil and construction waste in one skip bin?

No, waste types cannot be mixed in the same skip bin. Each skip bin is assigned to a specific waste type to ensure it can be disposed of correctly. For example, soil, bricks or rubble cannot be placed in a green waste skip bin.

What can go in a green waste skip bin?

Green waste skip bins are suitable for organic materials such as lawn clippings, plants, flowers, branches, sticks and tree offcuts. Putrescible waste such as dead animals, faeces or anything that may rot or attract pests must not be placed in the bin.

What can go in a soil and dirt skip bin?

Soil and dirt skip bins are designed specifically for soil and dirt only. Organic materials such as plants, roots and branches are not accepted in this waste type and will require a separate green waste skip bin.

What construction waste can landscapers dispose of?

Construction and building waste skip bins can be used for materials such as bricks, concrete, timber, metal, steel and rubble generated during landscaping projects. Items such as wet paint, asbestos and e-waste cannot be placed in this skip type.

What skip bin size do landscapers usually need?

The skip bin size you need will depend on the scale of your landscaping project and the type of waste being removed. Smaller bins are ideal for garden clean ups, while larger bins suit major landscaping work or property clear outs. If you are unsure, we often recommend sizing up to avoid overfilling.
