Signs You Need A Skip Bin

Skip bins are a popular choice for Sydney businesses when it comes to waste removal. Skip bins are affordable and can handle large quantities of rubbish; you can even arrange for the skip bin to be regularly emptied to save you from worrying and to save you time. So how do you know that your business needs a skip bin? Here are a few key signs that a business needs to look at getting in touch with a local skip bin company:
  1. Cardboard Overflow: Cardboard boxes are great. They can be reused to transfer your company’s product from one place to another, they can be used in keeping storage areas neat and tidy, or they can be flattened and recycled. However, there are only so many cardboard boxes one business can handle before you can’t move for cardboard boxes. Many skip bin companies offer a recycling service that will take your cardboard boxes away and get them on their way to a new life as a different or similar product.
  2. Spoilt Food: Any business that deals with commercial amounts of food knows that not all the food will get eaten. Disposing of food properly and quickly is the best way to keep your business free of vermin and to keep its good reputation intact. By hiring a skip bin and organising a regular removal, your business can do all that.
  3. Leftover Material: This is a situation similar to having more cardboard boxes than you know what to do with, but it applies to industries like construction. Though much of the materials can now be reused or recycled, things like broken concrete can only end up in landfill. To stop your construction site becoming a dangerous dump, hire a skip bin before the work begins so there is always somewhere to put rubbish and the site can stay tidy.

If you can see that one or more these examples are an issue for you and your business, hire a skip bin right away. To hire a skip bin in Sydney, call Bingo Group on 1300 424 646, or go online to www.bingogroup.com.au.

Environmentally Friendly Rubbish Removal

They say that there is nothing sure in life but death and taxes. I'd add another to that list: rubbish. Nothing ever starts out that way in this world, but that's how everything ends up. When an object lacks usefulness that is when it becomes true rubbish. This absence of usefulness can happen to natural things like soil or rock, but is far more likely to happen to man-made things like TVs, fridges and plastic wrap.  


Maybe we could add a little sub-point to that list and say that after rubbish comes the certainty that at some point in your life, sometimes several, you'll need a skip (even if you don't hire the skip and you just sneak your rubbish into your neighbour's skip under cover of darkness like some sort of suburban ninja). We make an awful lot of rubbish as a society, whether we're moving, working, or even simply eating. But there are ways to wipe rubbish from that list of certainties. We can convert rubbish into recycling instead. At least that would make the list of certainties a third less depressing.

Responsible suppliers of skips and bins, like Sydney-based Bingo Group, want to make this change. They're the largest supplier of skips and front-load bins in Sydney and with 4000 different sized bins, you could forgive them for saying it is all too tough. But Bingo Group is partners with Planet Ark; they have two huge cycling locations meaning that 89% of the rubbish that they remove gets recycled and used for commercial purposes. 

And in being environmentally friendly, Bingo Group haven't gone the way like some other businesses and neglected the customer. With a fleet of 80 trucks, Bingo Group offers same day delivery with their skips and bins and they let the customer have use of the bin for up to a fortnight - that means plenty of time to decide whether something really has an absence of usefulness or if you've just succumbed to a cleaning frenzy brought on by overexposure to dust and cleaning chemicals.

Bingo Group service businesses by providing regular waste removal for commercial places like restaurants. It makes sense from both the viewpoints of the customer and the proprietor: no one wants to eat at the place you can smell before you see (and not in that nice, delicious way).

So make a difference to the list of certainties where you can - choose Bingo Group when you need a skip or bin. Visit Bingo Group at www.bingogroup.com.au or call on 1300 424 646.

Some Quick Small Business Recycling Tips

Every business, no matter what the size is, produces considerable amounts of waste, making it necessary to start a recycling plan. It’s primarily good for the environment. However, with a carefully laid out recycling plan, the business’ employee morale can be improved, and company loyalty among them can be increased.
You may think that getting into a recycling program is a daunting task, but with careful planning which involves your staff, it’s actually quite an easy and enjoyable endeavour.
Creating a plan
When planning for a recycling program, think of a strategy that should involve all your staff as well as your janitorial service provider. What are their responsibilities? Should each staff have their own bins for recyclables in their offices? Or should the janitor collect the recyclables on a regular basis? Should you also hire skip bins to have them on standby for a week or two for your recycling needs? Call recycling companies to learn about their rates and for the right size of bins for your needs.
Place recycling bins on workstations
One of the best ways to inspire employee participation is to put small recycling bins on every office and workstation. This will allow them to form the habit of regularly throwing whatever can be recycled into the bin, and not into the trash.
You can also set up larger recycling bins on hallways as well as on the bathrooms to make it convenient for each staff to place recyclables where they should no matter where they are in the office. Larger bins will also make it easier for staff to dispose of larger recyclables such as printers and copier cartridges.
Don’t forget to segregate. Be sure to put a label on bins for recycling and bins for trash to help employees remember where stuff should be dropped.
Educate and inform
Create a plan in writing and have it sent or emailed to each employee. Create a detail which should include the goals and each of the employee’s part or responsibilities.
If necessary, hold a training session to ensure that each of the employees know where the recycling bins are and how to properly dispose of their stuff. The company’s recycling program should also be thoroughly explained during new employee orientation.
To keep them on track, regularly send email reminders to heads of departments to be cascaded to each employee.
Monitoring and tracking
Track the progress of the recycling program to make sure you see the areas that need improvements. This way, you will be able to see who’s falling behind and who’s doing an excellent job at keeping up with the program. You can also implement rewards for those who are on track to boost employee morale.

5 Things to Look for When Hiring Skip Bins

The challenge for many builders, industrial businesses and homeowners is finding the right waste management company that has enough skip bins and other waste disposal equipment to sufficiently and safely take care of their rubbish.

It is indeed worrying to find wastes pile up significantly that it has become difficult and expensive to get rid of them. However, with the right set of skip bins from the right waste management company, consider your waste management problems solved.

Below are five things to look for when hiring skip bins.

Substantial number of bins
Wastes can pile up fast. That’s why you need a waste management company that has a huge number of bins of all sizes and types. They should be able to take care of your wastes right away, or on the very day that you need them.

Sufficient number of trucks in their fleet
It is important that your wastes are hauled right away. That’s why, look for a company that has a sufficient number of trucks in their fleet that are of various types and sizes. This ensures that whatever type of rubbish you need to be towed away, the company can easily take care of it.

How long can you use the bins?
It’s reassuring to have bins that you can use for as long as you need. Proper waste management shouldn’t be rushed, especially when disposing industrial wastes. That’s why, look for companies that allow you to use their bins for extended periods.

Ability to take care of any types of waste
The skip bins provider should have a wide range of bins that should be able to accommodate different types of wastes including:

  • Food
  • Paper products
  • Construction rubbish
  • Furniture
  • Plumbing wastes
  • Toxic materials
  • Electronic/electrical wastes

Toxic or hazardous wastes must be taken care of properly. Ask the waste management company for experience in handling such wastes.

Waste management with the environment in mind
An ideal skip bins provider should offer more than just waste management. Ask the company what they do with the wastes after they’ve hauled them away from your place.

Some waste management companies have recycling facilities where they turn about 80 to 90 percent of the rubbish they collect into useful consumer products such as road fill, dirt and gravel.
