Summer Storms and Trees

You might not think it but waste bin hire is a great way to prepare for the summer storm season in Sydney. One of the best ways that you can keep your family and property safe is to be prepared for the heavy rains, strong winds, lightning and hail that are all part and parcel of living in Australia. This is where waste bin hire comes in. You’ll find that preparing your garden for the summer storm season will leave you with plenty of green waste to fill a fair few waste bins.

If anything from your garden is going to do some damage, it’ll be a tree. Here are two things you can do to reduce the damage they can cause in a storm:

• Dropped Branches: Australia has wonderful and striking native trees like eucalypts and wattles, unfortunately, so that they can survive in a climate where drought is common they have developed mechanisms that can prove dangerous to people and homes. Storms often occur after long periods of dry, hot weather. This dry, hot weather is precisely the kind of weather that will see your gum trees suddenly drop whole limbs. Sometimes these limbs don’t make it to the ground but can become caught up in other branches. To limit the amount of flying debris in storms, make sure that you remove any such branches before they get a chance to become airborne and smash into roofs or cars.

• Trimming: Strong winds can easily make trees sway and whip about, and this can lead to trees coming into contact with powerlines. If your tree hits a power line it can lead to power failures, fires, and possibly serious injury or death if it downs the power line. The best way you can prevent such an incident is to make sure that your trees and their branches are at least three metres away from any power lines. Trimming them back is the best way to achieve this. It is highly advisable that you get a professional in to do this to make sure that it is done safely. The last thing you want is to get hurt because you’re trying to prevent an injury happening.

The summer storm season is coming so its time to start looking for waste bins inSydney for all your green waste. Call Bingo Group on 1300 424 646.

Time for Skip Hire

You might think that you don’t need to be bothered about skip bin hire for your Sydney home, but there will definitely be times in your life when you need to hire a skip bin. These are just a few instances you might find yourself in and needing to look at skip hire:

• Failed Garage Sale: You spent all of the last weekend sorting through boxes and piles of junk that you have had hidden away in the cupboard, the spare room, the shed, or the garage. In your mind, or on paper, you have made a list of it all and what you reckon people will pay for it. You posted flyers and put up signs during the week telling everyone in the suburb that this weekend there will be incredible bargains. The weekend rolls around and a few people buy things but most are just sticky beaking. What are you supposed to do with all that junk? You can’t keep hanging onto it and no charity will take it. This is when you call your local skip bin hire company. Throw all that rubbish away and feel that wonderful release that comes with a good clean-out.
  
  
  
• Renovations: It’s time to knock through that wall or bring the bathroom up to this century. Suddenly, on bin night, you just can’t get it all in the rubbish bin. You leave what you can till the next week’s bin night but the same thing happens again. Renovations go hand-in-hand with skip hire.
  
  
  
  
  
• First Home: It is an amazing feeling when you move into your first home. All this space is yours. But it is a lot of space and you haven’t got nearly enough stuff to fill it. All you own is a couch, a bed, and a TV. You go to furniture stores and buy chairs and tables, lamps and bookcases, anything to fill that space. Now your house is full of cardboard, bubble wrap, and plastic. There’s no way it’ll all fit in the bin. Organise skip bin hire and you can enjoy your new home and furnishings without the rubbish.
  
  
  

You can’t avoid them. There will always be times in your life when you’ll need to hire a skip bin. Embrace it and make it the first thing you do, rather than the last. If you’re interested in skip hire in Sydney, call Bingo Group on 1300 424 646, or go online to www.bingogroup.com.au.

A Sydney Without Waste Bins

Why is it so important to use waste bins of all types in Sydney? There are approximately 4.6 million people living in Sydney and with the average Australian producing 2,100 kilograms of waste, Sydney would very quickly be overrun by 90 million tonnes of rubbish. And this is just the average figure, it doesn’t factor in renovating or building a home or business, resulting in a lot more excess waste.

It can seem like it’s not really a big issue to leave bulky rubbish by the side of the road until someone else deals with it rather than going through the process of waste bin hire. But what are the consequences if everyone took this approach?

For a start, house and land values would drop significantly if people ignored waste bins. As the rubbish stayed and began to decompose, alarming health risks would begin to arise. Here is just a short list of diseases that can be contracted from exposure to rubbish:

• Tetanus
• Food poisoning
• Ross River fever
• Hepatitis A
• Gastroenteritis
• Hookworm
• Dysentery
• Trachoma

Piles of rubbish are not just prime breeding grounds for diseases, but by choosing to ignore hiring a waste bin when you have excess rubbish, you are creating a space for rats, cockroaches, mice, foxes and other vermin to breed and reach plague proportions

There’s a simple way to save Sydney from this fate. Whether it is for domestic or commercial purposes, hire appropriate waste bins to conscientiously dispose of your rubbish. By hiring waste bins, you are stopping Sydney from becoming a sea of rubbish, disease, and vermin.

If you’re interested in keeping that scenario as just a nightmare and not a reality, consider waste bin hire in Sydney. Call Bingo Group on 1300 424 646, or enquire online at www.bingogroup.com.au

Hollywood Skip Bins

For the most part, skip bins in Sydney and around the world are easily ignored. They serve a single purpose of keeping the street or area clean and they perform that function well. However, Hollywood can be a little skip bin obsessed. Skip bins, or dumpsters as Americans know them, are often in movies or television shows as a means for the protagonist to escape from a tall building without having to use the stairs. Often, if not always, the skip bin will be full of soft items, or at least not full of broken glass or hard materials. So which movies and television shows are guilty of this bizarre and unrealistic cliché?

• The Matrix: Throughout The Matrix and its sequels, the protagonist, Neo, must outrun or outfight the antagonist that is the disturbing Agent Smith, who is often duplicated. During The Matrix, Neo is being chased by three Agents on top of a building, and he escapes by jumping into a skip bin.
• Stuart Little 2: It is not just humans who use skip bins as crash mats. The film’s antagonist, Falcon, attempts to kill Stuart by dropping him from a tower. Stuart lands in a skip bin and survives the fall.
• The Last Stand: A lot of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s movies are full of clichés. In one of his more recent roles, in the action movie The Last Stand, during the climatic street shootout, Schwarzenegger falls into a skip bin inexplicably full of stuffed toys.
• MacGyver: Macgyver is a cult classic because of its protagonist’s innate inventiveness that saw him create gadgets out of mundane items. However, Macgyver too fell victim to the skip bin cliché. In one episode, two bounty hunters tackle a pair of bad guys through a second-storey window. They all land in a skip bin full of bags of shredded paper.
• CSI: Crime Scene Investigation: You don’t often think of CSI as challenging Hollywood clichés but in one episode they did just that. A liquor store robber attempts to escape the police by jumping out a window and into a skip bin. However, though he lands in the skip bin, he is already dead thanks to a shard of glass from the window cutting his neck.

If you’re interested in hiring a skip bin in Sydney for its actual purpose of disposing of rubbish, call Bingo Group on 1300 424 646.

Better Go for a Skip Hire Rather Than Illegal Dump It

It can seem like a huge effort to go about skip bin hire in Sydney but illegal dumping is far more of a hassle. In recent months, people in various parts of Sydney have been skipping skip bin hire fees and disposing of their waste illegally.

Possibly the most alarming case of refusing skip hire and turning to illegal dumping was committed at the start of June this year. Presumably under the cover of darkness, someone or a group of people drove their waste to the Royal National Park located south of Sydney. And what did they dump? The standard old mattress and armchair? Broken white goods and other appliances? No. Up to five tonnes of asbestos material was dumped near the car park.

Earlier this year, the Hills Shire Council pursued legal action against a developer who thought that skip hire in Sydney was too difficult a task. An estimated 200 cubic metres of excavated material was dumped at Excelsior Reserve. It was the reports from concerned neighbours that meant the culprit was found. The council must now look at stabilising and revegetating the site in Excelsior Reserve.

With the New South Wales’ government also recently announcing changes to penalties for illegal dumping, it may turn out that it would have been much cheaper for both culprits to pay the fee for appropriate skip hire. The penalties for illegal dumping now include a maximum on-the-spot fine for individuals of $1500, and $5000 for businesses, and, for repeat offenders, up to seven years in jail.

So if you think it is all a bit much to hire a skip bin in Sydney, think again. Call Bingo Group on 1300 424 646, or enquire online at www.bingogroup.com.au to save yourself real hassle, and a lot of cash.

Hiring Skip Bins and Recycling as a Beneficial Business Trend

One of the most beneficial growing business trends these days is recycling. It has become an important and integral part of many business’ daily operations. We at Bingo Group, one of Sydney’s leading providers of skip bins and recycling services, is at a position to tell how recycling is indeed becoming a crucial part of many commercial organisations.

Sadly, it seems that some businesses are yet to catch up on the importance and relevance of recycling. While recycling is relevant to any business’ cost-efficiency, some businesses are yet to understand why it makes good business sense to recycle.

The benefits of recycling

Some businesses think that recycling needs tremendous amounts of effort and that it does little to efficiency and cost saving. That’s true a few years ago, but these days, recycling has proved its worth in improving any business’ bottom line. That’s because the cost of recycling has recently seen a decline. And as the volume of waste being recycled has steadily increased, the cost of recycling services have gone down.

Governments in many countries are pushing tremendous efforts into indirectly compensating businesses that recycle and indirectly imposing taxes on landfills. This move has made recycling even more cost-effective and making waste disposal even more costly.

Recycling also helps in improving corporate image. That’s because it shows customers how businesses these days are trying to become more environmentally conscious and responsible by committing to do something substantial about waste reduction.

Recycling also helps businesses in significantly reducing the amount of waste they send to landfills, making them reduce their carbon footprint. And hauling away business waste is no longer a problem, thanks to the growing number of waste management companies like Bingo Group, that provides skip bins for proper waste disposal and management, as well as recycling services.

Indeed, it makes business sense to recycle, as it allows businesses to save on costs by reducing the amount of new supplies to be used, and by recovering energy from reusable materials. The rewards from recycling may not be instant, but its long-term benefits can be quite staggering.

The Bingo Group advantage

Bingo Group, being one of Sydney’s biggest waste management companies, is also a recycling company. We haul away rubbish from homes, businesses and industrial sites. As we take away waste using any of the 4,000 skip bins that we have for hire, we turn those waste into other things useful.
