The summer holiday period from December through February is the busiest season and time of the year for waste removal across the Greater Brisbane area from the Sunshine Coast in the north to the Gold Coast in the south. In this article, we’ll share the reasons why and what to do in each circumstance.
8 Reasons Why People Hire a Skip Bin During the Peak Season in Brisbane
Whether you are doing a spring cleaning or a pre-Christmas decluttering, or you’ll start in the new year to declutter your home and yard. Learn about the different reasons and timeframes why customers book our range of skip bins.
1. Spring Cleaning
As winter is behind us, and the warm spring weather arrives, often rolling into the holidays and summer season, we feel it’s the perfect time for a big clear-out at home. Old gear out, fresh space in, let the decluttering begin!
2. Pre-Christmas Decluttering
Some people want to end the year with decluttering and enjoy Christmas and the New Year in the spirit of minimalism, and start the fresh new year relaxing. With this in mind, decluttering your home before the festivities is the right approach.

3. New Year Decluttering in January
The majority of people, though, are too busy before Christmas. Whether it is searching for Christmas presents for the family and friends, planning for the Christmas dinner, the New Year’s Party, or just planning for the well deserved family holiday… Let’s be honest, some of us are too busy until December 31st and prefer to start decluttering in the New Year. New Year, new start, right?
4. End of School Year Clean Out
As Brisbane schools end the last term of the year, and they prepare for the next term, school administrators often hire a skip bin to help teachers sustainably manage their school waste accumulated throughout the year. This is mostly cardboard, paper, notebooks, e-waste, etc.
No more overflowing bins and mounting rubbish everywhere, Jumbo helps your school keep the school grounds clean and tidy, by efficiently removing your waste and rubbish, recycling every possible waste stream, so as to avoid landfills.

5. Home Renovation Projects
They say the biggest competitor to the tourism industry is DIY stores that sell products for home improvement, hardware, and building projects… This is because people decide to either go on holiday or tackle a renovation project. Yes, it is very true. Long weekends and time off work make the summer holiday period ideal for home renovation and revamp projects. Jumbo helps your project run smoothly by taking care of your construction and renovation waste in a sustainable way.
6. Backyard and Garage Cleanouts
You might not have a full home renovation project in sight, but wouldn’t you like a tidier backyard and garage? Usually, the objects you don’t need any longer end up exactly in the garage, they might stay there for years until it’s finally time to say goodbye to them. Warm weather and sunny days are usually a good inspiration for clearing junk from garages, basements, attics, and the backyard.

7. Garden Cleanouts
You can never have enough bins to keep up with those falling palm fronds, tree branches, grass clippings, large leaves, and weeds that you keep accumulating in a pile in a corner of your garden. Hiring a proper skip for a full garden cleanout at the beginning of the year allows you to dispose of large amounts of garden waste. Plus, by ordering a green waste skip with Jumbo, you ensure that this organic material is recycled into compost rather than ending up in a landfill where it can create harmful greenhouse gases.
8. Business Office Cleanouts / Retail Space Cleanouts / Warehouse Cleanout
Summer’s quieter work months are perfect for small business owners, property managers, and facility operators to remove waste from their premises and shred confidential paper. Whether it’s your business’s office, retail space that has undergone a refit, or a warehouse that needs tidying up, Jumbo provides comprehensive business cleanout solutions, including office cleanouts, retail space cleanouts, and warehouse cleanouts.
