Christchurch Skip Hire

Affordable Skip Bins From 2m³ to 7m³

I am Pete from Christchurch Skip Hire (also known as Pete’s Skips). We’re a locally owned, family‑run skip bin service providing General Waste, Green Waste and Hardfill skips across Christchurch.

Our trucks are smaller than standard gantry skip trucks, so we can deliver bins into tight driveways and spots others can’t.

General Waste

Household junk, furniture, appliances, plastics, toys, clothing, cardboard and packaging. Christchurch charges by the kilo and general rubbish goes to landfill, so fees are higher. Don’t mix soil or hardfill into general – it hikes the price.

Green Waste

Grass clippings, leaves, hedge trimmings, small branches. No soil, no flax, no palm fronds, no rubbish. Green waste is mulched into compost. Contamination = charged as general waste.

Hardfill

Concrete, bricks, tiles, clean soil. Cheaper to dump because it’s reused for roading. If contaminated with rubbish/green waste, it’s charged at general rates. Example: 2m³ hardfill skip (~2000kg) ≈ $295 clean; contaminated ≈ $600+.

Cheapest Rubbish Disposal

Skip hire is about rubbish removal and we’re only too happy to give you free advice with all your skip requirements in the Christchurch area. We are one of the very few locally owned skips still run by a family, unlike most who have been bought out by multinationals over time. You can count on us for solutions when it comes to getting rid of any junk or major rubbish jobs, because our local knowledge from years running this business means that whatever you need done will be completed quickly so you won’t end up having pay more than what was originally quoted!

Why Christchurch Skip Bins Costs More

About 70% of skip hire cost is dump fees, charged by the kilo. Christchurch has some of the highest rates in NZ plus landfill levies. Hardfill is cheaper as it’s recycled; general rubbish goes to landfill. High fees aim to reduce waste, but lead to illegal dumping.

How To Save Money

  • Pick the right size bin.
  • Keep waste types separate.
  • No soil in green bins — even 100kg adds $45 extra.
  • No flax in green bins — jams grinders, toxic mulch.
  • Pack smart (flatten boxes, chop branches).
  • Keep bins on private property.
  • Level load only.
  • Share with neighbours.
