Garden and green waste bins for every Melbourne property

A weekend in the garden fills up faster than any kerbside bin. Universe Bins delivers green waste skips across Melbourne for lawn clippings, prunings, hedge trimmings and branches — so the pile on the driveway is gone instead of sitting there until next weekend.

Keep the load to green waste only and it does not go to landfill at all. Clean garden waste is processed into mulch and compost, which is better for the environment and usually cheaper for you than a mixed general waste load. Tell us your suburb, what you are clearing and when you need it, and we will send you a free quote.

Garden clean-ups of every size

From a weekend lawn tidy to a full landscaping strip-out, there is a bin to suit.

  • Lawn and garden clean-ups

    Grass clippings, leaves, weeds and the general overgrowth that builds up over a season — cleared in one go.

  • Tree lopping and pruning

    Branches, prunings and tree offcuts after a lop or a trim. Cut them down to fit and they will sit flat in the bin.

  • Landscaping and makeovers

    Old shrubs, hedges, bark and mulch pulled out when a garden is being redesigned from scratch.

  • A bin for any size job

    Our skips run from 2m³ to 12m³. Green waste is bulky, so tell us what you are clearing and we will size it properly.

Garden & Green Waste FAQs

The questions Melbourne gardeners ask us most often.

Anything that grew in the garden: grass clippings, leaves, weeds, hedge and shrub trimmings, small branches, prunings, bark, mulch, palm fronds and tree offcuts. Keep the load to green waste only and it can be recycled rather than sent to landfill.

Keep out soil, rocks, turf, bricks, concrete, pots, plastic plant bags, timber that has been treated or painted, general household rubbish, chemicals and garden sprays. If you have dirt or turf to clear, ask us about a soil removal bin instead.

Green waste is bulky and does not compact much, so allow more room than you would expect. A 2m³ or 3m³ bin suits a lawn tidy or a few hedges; 4m³ to 6m³ covers most garden clean-ups; 8m³ up to 12m³ suits tree lopping, a full landscaping strip-out or a large block. See the full range of skip bin sizes.

Branches, prunings and tree offcuts are fine. Cut long branches down so they sit inside the bin and lie flat — nothing should stick out over the rim. Large stumps and root balls often carry soil with them, so let us know beforehand and we will confirm whether they can be included.

We deliver garden and green waste skip bins right across metropolitan Melbourne. See the full list of suburbs we cover, or call us if yours is not listed.
