Prunings, old sheds, fences and pool-dig spoil. Pick the bin by the load, then put it where the work is.
Acreage country, mostly. Tallebudgera tracks its creek inland, with Burleigh Heads, Palm Beach and Elanora standing between it and the surf. From the 1890s this was dairy land, and when the dairies wound down the farms were carved into the large blocks that line the valley today. The 2021 Census counted 94 per cent of dwellings as detached houses, and two thirds of homes run to four bedrooms or more. Find your bearings by Coplick Family Sports Park, which sits on Tallebudgera Connection Road beside the state school; St Andrew's Lutheran College, out on Tallebudgera Creek Road; or the old post office on Trees Road, now heritage listed.
Out along Trees Road, Guineas Creek Road and Tallebudgera Connection Road, the jobs follow the land:
Green waste has its own bin type and costs less than general waste: a 9 m³ Green Waste bin is $695, against $1,050 for general. After a big prune or a storm, choose that 9 m³, or step up to a 15 m³ Green Waste hook bin if the property can take it. A shed or garage clear-out sits around 4 m³ to 6 m³. Spoil is limited by weight: dirt to a 4 m³ bin, concrete to a 6 m³. Larger digs get divided across bins when you call.
Framing timber, steel posts and roofing iron from a shed are all General Builders material. Cladding is the risk: older sheds were often sheeted with products that may contain asbestos, and no Tiger bin can carry it. Have a sample tested before the first sheet comes off. Batteries, tyres, chemicals, gas bottles, liquids and wet paint are refused as well.
A bigger block lets you drop the bin right beside the shed or garden you are clearing, which cuts wheelbarrow trips. Ground under it must be firm and close to level, with a clear path for the truck. Drives that are long, unsealed or soggy after rain are worth a phone call to 1800 462 674 before you book.
Anywhere inside your boundary: no permit. Council land is different. Parking a bin on the roadway, verge or footpath is allowed only once the City of Gold Coast has granted you a permit; applying is your job, as is meeting its conditions. Tiger Skips does not apply on anyone's behalf.
Shed and garage clear-outs, or one small bathroom.
Kitchen and bathroom strip-outs. The biggest bin that takes soil.
Whole-room renovations and big clear-outs. The top size for concrete.
Often not, but check first. The truck has to travel on a firm track to a level, solid patch for the bin, and an unsealed drive can lose its bearing after heavy rain. Ring 1800 462 674 with a description of the drive and talk the spot through before you book.
A Green Waste bin keeps the cost down: the 9 m³ is $695, and the 15 m³ hook bin is $1,050 where there is space. Tree trunks wider than 25 cm are not accepted. Keep general rubbish out, or the $150 contamination fee for green waste applies.
Yes, as long as the City of Gold Coast has granted you its permit; you apply and you meet its conditions. Most Tallebudgera blocks have room inside the fence line, and there nothing needs approving.
The earliest is 36 hours from booking, so an order placed in the morning, before 12, can reach you the next day. AM or PM is treated as a preference.
Postcode 4228 is in place. Pick the waste type and a date.
