Why are there weight limits on bins?

We have weight limits on the bins as we get charged by the landfills by the weight of the bin. The weight limits for each size are on the Our Bins page. You are better to go up a size bin if you are not sure the weight allowance is enough for your rubbish. If your bin is over the weight allowance for the size bin you have hired, you will receive an invoice for this charge. We appreciate payment within 7 days.
