Asbestos Skip Bins
Bris-Skips is EPA Approved to transport Asbestos waste materials. Being regulated waste all Asbestos needs to be contained in specially lined bins.
We put a plastic liner in the bin for you at the time of delivery. All you need to do is cover the bin with the plastic provided when you are finished and tape it.
PLEASE NOTE: Use of bins for Asbestos needs to be specified when ordering.
Skip Bin Length of Hire
The standard hire term for a skip bin is 7 days. However, you can have your bin removed at anytime within 7 days. An extra charge may apply if you want it for more than 7 days.
Bin Placement
Skip Bins need to placed behind the property line. Our trucks need access (e.g. the driveway) that is 3m wide by 3.8m high to be able to get in to the site and unload the bin.
Sometimes it is not possible to get the bin behind the property line. In these situations the driver will be able to help you find a spot for the bin at the time of delivery.
