For any project

Which bin do I need?

Whether you're dealing with a large volume of trash, construction debris or green waste, a rental bin saves you trips to the transfer station and keeps your property clean. DIY renovation, yard makeover, garage clean-out or estate clean-out: we've got a bin for it.

We rent two sizes only: 12-yard bins for residential customers and 40-yard bins for commercial customers. We offer flexible rentals for short-term projects (30 days or less) and long-term needs.

Renovating a home built before 1990?

For renovation or demolition projects on homes built before 1990, a clean asbestos permit is required before bin delivery. Please call us at 250-537-2167 for details.

How does bin rental work?

  1. Send a request. Use the form below or call. It's a request, not a booking.
  2. We confirm. We call to confirm the bin and date, then send you a link to add a $500 card deposit and accept the rental agreement.
  3. We drop it off. You fill it, then call us when you want it picked up.
  4. We weigh it. We weigh the bin on our certified scale and charge the final amount to your card on file.

NOT ALLOWED IN BINS

  • Asbestos
  • Liquids
  • Paint
  • Oil, oil filters & antifreeze
  • Chemicals

For asbestos, use our asbestos transport form. Paint and chemicals can go to Island Community Services Recycle Depot, 349 Rainbow Rd (250-537-1200).

Drywall is OK: Drywall is accepted at $0.41/kg if it is date-stamped or comes with a test report, and is not mixed with other garbage. If drywall is mixed with other garbage in a bin, the $400 sorting fee applies.

A $400 sorting fee applies to any bin that contains banned materials.
