Burleigh Heads skip bins

Tiger Skips is operated by BOSH Bins from 1/14 Fremantle Street, inside this suburb. Burleigh Heads begins at the national park on the headland and follows Tallebudgera Creek inland to West Burleigh. By the beach, heritage-listed Norfolk pines line The Esplanade and Goodwin Terrace. The right bin depends on which part of that you are working in.

• Units and apartments. Census figures from 2021 put flats and apartments at close to half of local dwellings, and separate houses at roughly 39 per cent. A unit refurbishment seldom needs more than a 3 m³ or a 4 m³.
• Older houses, Koala Park included. That creekside pocket was developed in the 1960s. Working through one of these houses room by room usually means a 6 m³, about 24 wheelie bins, or a 9 m³ at about 36.
• Shops on James Street and Connor Street. Fit-out waste from a café or shop refit goes in a General Builders bin, sized to what is being stripped.
• West Burleigh workshops. The small industrial area around Township Drive is where the 15 m³ hook bin fits best: roughly 60 wheelie bins of commercial or demolition waste.

Shared car parks

The car park under a unit block belongs to every owner in it. Before booking, find out from the body corporate or the building manager which spot the skip may use and for how many days; standard hire is 14. A smaller bin leaves residents space to park.

Room for a bigger bin

A house driveway keeps the bin inside the boundary. A workshop with its own hardstand or loading area is the natural place for a 9 m³ or the hook bin. Weight sets the ceiling either way: dirt is accepted in bins up to 4 m³, concrete in bins up to 6 m³. Over those limits, ring 1800 462 674 to divide the load between bins.

Kerbside placement

Private land needs no permit. Out on the street, the footpath or the verge, the City of Gold Coast wants one; you lodge it and the responsibility is yours. Permit applications are not something Tiger Skips handles.
