The client will be responsible for ensuring that the skip bin truck has easy access to allow for drop off and pick up of the skip bin. The area is to be clear of any obstacles, be clear of overhead power lines and cables, as well as being able to bear the weight of the fully loaded skip bin and the truck transporting the skip bin.

The location of the skip bin must not be a hazard for pedestrians or road users.
If the skip bin is to be placed on public land, it is up to the customer to organise a council permit.

9. Skip Bin Overloading
To ensure safe loading and transport of the skip bin, the client is to ensure that the contents inside the bin do not exceed the top lip of the skip bin. This will prevent materials falling off the truck when it is in transit.
