At JUMBO we are proud to work with construction sites around the Greater Brisbane area, from the Gold Coast in the South, to Ipswich in the West and the Sunshine Coast in the North, to offer specialised clean concrete bins.
We offer this service with our partner business Moreton Bay Recycling. This collaboration makes it uniquely possible for us to offer you reduced rates to recycle your concrete, so long as it is uncontaminated! Read on for all the details.

Why Are Clean Concrete Bins Highly Effective?
Whether it’s a landscaping project, demolition works, civil work or on a construction site, clean concrete bins are a great choice to save you money and minimise your environmental footprint, since they ensure 100% recyclability, eliminating contamination surcharges. That’s what we call a win-win.
At JUMBO we have always offered a concrete and demolition waste solution. However, as the product is so dense and heavy, we’ve been constrained to offering smaller bin sizes. Until recently, our concrete bins on offer included 2m, 3m and 4m sizes.

Specialised 10m Concrete Skip Bins
10m concrete skip bins were introduced together with specialised 10m hook bins specifically for the waste management needs of construction sites. 10m bins offer ultimate efficiency on job sites. They are purpose-built bins with a hinge door at one end, so it’s even easier to fill them, for example, using a wheelbarrow.
Our specialised 10m concrete bins are heavy duty, designed specifically for concrete and are the same size as a standard tipper truck. But, unlike a tipper, they can be kept on site for long stretches and also have the obvious benefit of ground level access for easier loading. This means that you can opt for a smaller loading machine that can drive in and out of the hook bin throughout the job.

100% Clean Concrete Waste Removal in Specialised Skips
In order for us to pass on said cost savings, these bins must only be loaded with clean (uncontaminated) material. Clean concrete skips are taken directly to Moreton Bay Recycling crushing and recycling. There are no exceptions to this.

– What if you book a clean concrete bin but notice that the concrete is actually contaminated?
No problem. Here are the 2 options on what you can do and we highly recommend option 1.
Option 1.
Let us know in advance that the concrete is not clean and it’s easily fixed. You will be charged for a regular concrete skip, and the rubbish is taken to a separate facility for processing as it cannot be recycled.
Option 2.
If you try to hide contaminated concrete, when the bin is emptied at Moreton Bay Recycling, operations need to be halted, and the bin reloaded (slow, tedious and costly. The contaminated waste then needs to be transferred to a separate processing facility. Needless to say, you won’t like the excess charges incurred for this option.
