Keep the booked material and restricted items visible to the loading crew.
Job site signage templates
Place the sign where the crew chooses a material stream. State the actual booked material and a contact for uncertain items. Check that new workers see it before loading.
What to post
Batteries, electronics, paint, solvents, propane, pharmaceuticals and asbestos stay out. Point crews to Metro Vancouver Recycles.
Short signs for the loading area
Bin use: Only the material agreed in this booking. Ask the site contact before adding anything else.
Keep out: Batteries, electronics, paint, solvents, propane, pharmaceuticals and asbestos.
Loading limit: Keep the load below the rim. Stop and ask if the weight or material is uncertain.
After signage
On your driveway or yard, the bin needs no permit. For the street, boulevard or lane, some cities require a permit, so check first. If yours does, send us the dates and we will time delivery.
When a bin fits
We deliver the bin and haul it away. The loading is up to you. For most jobs, the 20-yard junk bin is the place to start. We also have a 15-yard bin, but it is often sold out, so ask when you book.
Do not load batteries, electronics, propane tanks, paint, solvents, pharmaceuticals or asbestos into a junk bin. Search the regional recycling directory or call 604 732 9253 if you are unsure.
For standing limits, use our disposal bins and what not to put in a bin pages.
FAQ
What should a site sign tell the crew? Identify the booked material and tell the crew what must stay out. Include the contact for uncertain items and keep the wording short.
What size bin should I start with? A 20-yard junk bin is the usual start. Ask when booking about other sizes. The 15-yard is often sold out.
Do I need a permit on my driveway? No. A driveway or yard needs no permit. Street, boulevard or lane rules depend on your City. Tell us permit dates if a street drop is approved.
Where do I check an item I am unsure about? Search the regional recycling directory or call the Recycling Hotline at 604 732 9253. Do not guess on paint, batteries, electronics or chemicals.
Can asbestos ever go in a Trash King bin? No. Asbestos is never permitted in any Trash King bin. Use a licensed abatement contractor when asbestos is present.
