The Sneaky Rubbish of Moving Home
We don't know how much rubbish we've accumulated until the packing starts. Crammed drawers of rubbish, unwanted kitchen gadgets, boxes in the garage that have never been used, old furniture, non-functioning electric appliances - it all comes flooding out when you're preparing to move. And while some of it can be donated, recycled, or sold, a surprising amount is consigned to the bin. This sort of waste isn't solely found at the end of a move - it occurs all along the process. You may start getting rid of items while you're packing, discover more in cleaning up, and see even more once the furniture is gone and the empty rooms reveal to you how much you don't have a use for.
Many homeowners try to manage this with their regular council bins, but these fill up fast - especially if you're working to a tight deadline. Others attempt endless trips to the tip or transfer station, which requires sorting, loading, driving, and waiting in queues, often multiple times across several days. Skip bin hire, however, puts all that waste in one easy-to-manage spot. It sits on your ground, ready to deal with everything from load-up day one to final clean-up. With Bin Corp's flexible hire durations, you can hire your bin for the exact duration you need, from an end-of-week clean to a week-or-more relocation.
Pre-Move Decluttering: Out With the Old
Decluttering is amongst the first things you must undertake in a successful house move. It makes packing quicker, helps you feel more in charge, and means you won't be paying to shift items you don't want or need. The earlier you start, the higher your chances of success - and having a skip bin on site means you can dispose of rubbish along the way. Decluttering often means more than a few musty old clothes. You can decide to dispose of a broken bookshelf, damaged outdoor furniture, rusty barbecue, or old electronics in your cupboard. These ones will not be suitable for donation, and trying to fit them into a small household bin just does not pay off.
This is where a skip bin really comes into its own. From small apartments to big family houses, there is a size of skip bin available to accommodate all types of household waste. Forget sorting loads or making several trips to the tip - simply fill the bin and leave the rest to Bin Corp. Not only does this lighten your load for moving day, but it's also incredibly satisfying. Letting go of junk you've been holding onto for years can feel like a fresh start, making your new home feel truly new.
During the Move: Stay Organised and Stress-Free
Moving day is complicated with a multitude of moving components - removalists to coordinate, heavy lifting to do, last-minute packing and ensuring nothing's left behind. The last thing you want is piles of junk, broken boxes, or litter strewn everywhere hindering. Having a skip bin on site for the duration of the move ensures everything is contained. When you remove furniture and clear out the rooms, you'll likely be left with extra rubbish: damaged furniture that is no longer wanted, destroyed blinds, ruined carpet, or pointless cardboard boxes which won't get recycled. Instead of letting it ruin the room, you can simply tip it into the bin immediately.
If you're doing a DIY move, even better. You'll have a clean, open space to work in without worrying about rubbish interfering with access or blocking doorways. And if you've hired removalists, a clear environment helps them do their job more efficiently - and more safely. At Bin Corp, we understand that timing is of the essence when it comes to moving. That's why we offer quick, reliable delivery and collection, with same-day delivery and flexible scheduling available all across Melbourne. Our team will arrange a time to deliver your bin at a time and place convenient for you - front yard, driveway, or even nature strip (with council permission).
Post-Move Clean-Up: Leaving the Property Tidy
Once your belongings and furniture are out and the property is empty, the final clean-up is in progress. When renting, this is necessary - a soiled property could lose part of your bond. When selling, leaving the property tidy is a show of respect for the new owners and prevents last-minute settlement delays. Typically, it's then that the last bits of rubbish are apparent. Miscellaneous nails, pieces of wood, carpet offcuts, broken blinds, bathroom grime, paint cans, miscellaneous rubbish left behind on the way, and so on. And after days or even weeks of boxing and moving, it's not something most people will be particularly excited to do. With a skip bin on site, there is nothing to fret about. You can throw all your rubbish straight into the bin - no bag, sort, or carry required. You can tidy up quickly and efficiently, without making more mess along the way.
Bin Corp will even come to collect at short notice, so when the job's done, we'll take the bin away and leave the site clean and ready for inspection or handover.
