Skip Bin Hire in Subiaco

Subiaco is a split market for skip bin hire. Half the calls are residential renovations in the character homes east of Rokeby Road. The other half are commercial shopfits and office clean-outs along Rokeby, Hay Street and the Station Precinct.

Both jobs need different thinking. Residential drops on a quiet Subi back street are straightforward. Commercial bins on Rokeby Road need council approval and traffic management.

We run both streams daily out of our Malaga depot. Fifteen minutes up Reid Highway and we're in Subiaco.

Rokeby Road sees constant shopfit turnover. Cafes come and go, fashion boutiques refit every couple of years, and the office stock above the shops gets updated on five-year cycles.

Info

Night-time swap-outs on Rokeby Road

The City of Subiaco restricts daytime skip bin placement on Rokeby Road during business hours. For commercial fit-outs we run overnight swap-outs — drop at 6pm, collect at 6am. Zero impact on daytime foot traffic.

  1. 1

    Site visit

    We walk the tenancy with the fit-out contractor.

  2. 2

    Permit lodgement

    City of Subiaco verge permit, 48-72 hours.

  3. 3

    Evening drop

    Bin placed after 6pm on the day of permit start.

  4. 4

    Morning collection

    Before 6am so foot traffic isn't affected.

  5. 5

    Swap-out for multi-day fit-outs

    Back-to-back overnight runs for longer jobs.

Residential renovations — Subi character homes

The character homes east of Rokeby are the other half of Subiaco bin hire. Most were built between 1900 and 1940, with jarrah floors, fireplaces, and original plasterwork.

Renovations here skew toward restoration rather than strip-out. That means smaller bins, longer hire periods, and more careful placement to protect heritage features.

  • Kitchen strip in a 1920s cottage — 3m³ or 4m³
  • Bathroom remodel with tile removal — 4m³
  • Full interior repaint and re-plaster — 3m³ per week
  • Rear addition — 6m³ or 8m³
  • Deceased estate from a long-held family home — staged across 2-3 bins

“Character home renos need a bin that hangs around for the whole job, not one that gets switched out every three days.”

Questions from Subiaco residents

Same-day if you book before 10am on a weekday. Our trucks run out of Malaga from 6am so most inner and northern suburbs get bins on the driveway by 9am. Southern suburbs and Fremantle get their drop before noon.
No. The price we quote over the phone is the final price — bin hire, delivery, tip fees, and GST all included. Flat price, no surprises.
Only with a council permit. On your own driveway or private property you don't need one. If you need the bin on the verge or roadway, we can walk you through the permit process for your local council.
Only with a City of Subiaco traffic management permit, and even then it's discouraged. We strongly recommend an overnight drop and collection instead — it's what every established Rokeby shopfit does. We've run hundreds of these and it's zero impact on the strip.
