Maryborough Scrap Bins
Overflowing wheelie bins and endless tip runs? No thanks. Maryborough Recycling offers residential scrap bins that make metal clean-ups quick, easy and efficient. Based in Maryborough, we provide practical bin hire for locals clearing out old appliances, roofing, fencing, and other metal items.
Whether you're cleaning out a rental, renovating the bathroom or tackling a shed full of scrap, we’ve got the right bin for the job. Our scrap bins come in multiple sizes, so you’re not paying for more than you need—or left short when the metal piles up.
Depending on your location, bins may be delivered and collected—or you can load up and bring the scrap to us. You focus on the job at hand—we’ll help you manage the metal. Simple. Get in touch with us on (07) 4121 3458 to book a scrap bin today.
Scrap Bins for Home Clean-Ups
You don’t need a construction site to need a scrap bin. Sometimes it’s just a shed clean-out, a pile of metal offcuts, or finally clearing out old appliances and roofing iron. That’s where we come in.
We help homeowners and renters across the region manage scrap without the mess or confusion. Our team will walk you through bin sizes, help you choose the best fit, and arrange drop-off depending on your location. Got questions about what’s allowed? Just ask—we’re here to help.
Our scrap bins are designed for clean metal only—things like sheeting, tools, piping and steel. No sorting needed once you know what’s in, and no hidden fees—just one less thing to worry about when you’re mid-project. A good clean-out feels great. We’ll help make sure it’s done right, from the first load to the last.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size scrap bin do I need for a house clean-up?
The right scrap bin size depends on how much metal you’re clearing. For small jobs like old appliances, broken tools or metal shelves, a 2m³ to 4m³ bin is usually enough.
Larger projects—like shed clean-outs, roof replacements or full renovations—may need a 6m³ or 8m³ bin to handle bulky items like steel frames, fencing, or offcuts. Bins over 10m³ are best for high-volume metal loads.
Always allow extra space—bins must not be overfilled. If you’re unsure, ask your provider to recommend the right size based on your scrap.
What can I put in a residential scrap bin?
Residential scrap bins are for metal only. You can dispose of items like old appliances, roofing iron, fencing, tools, piping, metal offcuts and other clean scrap from around the home or shed.
You can’t put in general rubbish, green waste, timber, furniture, gas bottles, solar panels, tyres (unless on rims), fridges without a degas certificate, or hazardous materials like paint, asbestos or batteries (except lead acid batteries, which must be delivered separately).
Always check the list of accepted materials before loading your bin to avoid contamination or delays.
Do I need a permit to place a scrap bin on my driveway or street?
You don’t need a permit to place a scrap bin on private property like your driveway or front yard. But if the bin needs to go on the street, footpath or nature strip, your local council may require a permit.
Permit rules and fees vary by area, and it’s your responsibility to check before placing a bin on public land. In some cases, your bin provider may help with the application—others may require you to organise it.
Getting approval in advance helps avoid fines or the bin being removed without notice.
