Concrete is one of the heaviest materials we collect, and it behaves differently to general renovation waste — here’s what actually matters if you’re clearing it from a Sunshine West job.
Weight, not the bin looking full
Concrete hits a bin’s weight limit long before it looks full. A 4m³ bin loaded with pure concrete can reach its weight allowance with the bin barely a third full visually — know the allowance for your size before loading, not after.
Mixed loads still work
If your job is concrete alongside general demolition waste — tiles, timber, brick — it can all go in the same bin. Just be aware the concrete content will drive the weight far more than the volume does.
Sizing a concrete-heavy job in Sunshine West
For a genuinely concrete-heavy job, it’s often cheaper to book two smaller bins than one large bin that hits its weight limit early. Describe the job when you call and we’ll size it honestly.
