How We Manage Waste & Recycling
At Melville Bin Hire, we help homeowners and businesses responsibly manage unwanted materials using skip bins that are delivered and collected with reliable service. From general household clutter to renovation debris and garden waste, we make clean-ups straightforward by providing the right bin for your job and ensuring waste is taken to appropriate facilities.
We encourage recycling wherever possible to reduce landfill burden, minimise greenhouse gases, and make better use of usable materials. With our skip bins, recyclable items are sorted and transported to recycling centres to be processed into new materials, turning waste into useful raw resources.
What We Handle
Household de-cluttering and general waste removal
Garden and green waste
Renovation and demolition materials (bricks, concrete, wood, metals)

E-Waste (Electronic Waste)
Electronic appliances like computers, TVs, fridges, and microwaves should be recycled responsibly. When you book your skip bin, inform Melville Bin Hire that you’ll be disposing of e-waste. Items are then separated and taken to accredited e-waste recyclers in Perth to ensure they are processed safely and in an environmentally friendly way.
Renovation & Construction Waste
During renovations, large amounts of materials such as bricks, concrete, metals and plasterboard can often be recycled rather than landfilled.
- Plasterboard: When free from nails, screws or contaminants, it can be recycled into new plasterboard or reused as gypsum in agriculture.
- Construction debris: Many materials from demolition can be processed into road base or reused in building products.
- Asbestos: Must be handled separately — Melville Bin Hire offers specialist bins and disposal kits for safe removal.
Household Recycling
As part of responsible waste practices:
- Use your council’s yellow-topped recycling bin for approved recyclables.
- Exclude items like soft plastics, disposable cups, oven-proof glass, metal hangers, and mirrors these do not qualify for recycling under most council programs.
Following these guidelines helps keep recyclable streams clean and effective.
