Cracked pathway pavers and base sand are dense, so plan a heavy bin instead of forcing them into a junk load.
Frost heave paver culls
Cracked pathway pavers from frost heave are dense. Ask about a 10-yard or 12-yard heavy bin for the pavers. Confirm masonry acceptance before loading. Keep masonry separate from household junk.
Sand and base
Discuss base sand and dirt as a separate heavy stream. Confirm a 10-yard or 12-yard bin and the accepted material combination. Tell us volumes when you book so the load matches tip rules.
Ask for heavy bins
Tell us paver volume when booking. Junk bins cover only non masonry residue after heavy materials are diverted. Driveway pads need no permit.
When a bin fits
For concrete chips, pavers or base sand from this job, start with a 10-yard or 12-yard heavy bin kept out of junk.
We bring the bin and take it away again. The loading is up to you. Dense materials need a 10-yard or 12-yard heavy stream booking. Keep residual household junk separate. We also have a 15-yard bin, but it is often sold out, so ask when you book.
You do not need a permit for a bin on your driveway or yard. Some cities do need a permit for the street, boulevard or lane, so ask your City before booking. If you get dates, we will match delivery to them.
Skip batteries, electronics, propane tanks, paint, solvents, pharmaceuticals and asbestos when you load a junk bin. Search Metro Vancouver Recycles or call 604 732 9253 if you are unsure.
