What happens if I cancel my skip bin order?

If you cancel your order before the permit has been submitted to Yarra Ranges Shire Council, you are eligible for a full refund.

What happens if I obtain a permit but WM Waste’s hire period is 4 days?

The council permit does not always align with the standard hire period of 4 days. Should you require the skip bin for a longer duration to match the length of your permit, additional hire fees apply at a rate of $20-$30 per extra day.
