Set it up Tuesday. By Friday I had three quote requests in my inbox. One turned into a $14,200 bathroom job. Pays for itself ten times over.

Common questions
What others asks before signing up?
How much does it cost to hire a skip bin in Australia?
Skip bin hire starts from around $200 for a 2m³ mini skip and ranges to $900+ for an 8m³ bin. Prices vary by bin size, waste type, hire duration and your location. Heavy waste like concrete or bricks attracts a surcharge of 30–50%. This calculator gives you an instant estimate based on your specific requirements.
How accurate is this skip bin hire estimate?
The calculator uses current Australian industry rates and accounts for bin size, waste type surcharges, hire duration and council permit fees. Your skip bin company will confirm the final price after reviewing your job details.
Does the estimate include GST?
Yes. All estimates include 10% GST, shown as a separate line item in the breakdown so you can see the ex-GST and inclusive totals.
Can I add this calculator to my WordPress or Squarespace site?
Yes. Leadkit calculators embed on any website — WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix, Shopify or custom HTML. Copy one script tag from your dashboard and paste it into your page.
What do I get when someone fills out the calculator?
You receive an instant email notification with the customer's name, email, phone, bin size, waste type, hire duration, placement and location. The lead also appears on your Leadkit dashboard ready for dispatch.
Do I need a website to use this calculator?
No. Leadkit generates a branded quote page for every calculator you create. Share the link on social media, Google Business Profile or in text messages — no website required.
Do I need a council permit for a skip bin?
Only if the bin is placed on public land such as a road, footpath or nature strip. Bins on your driveway or private property don't need a permit. Council fees typically range from $50 to $300 depending on your local council.
Is Leadkit really free?
Yes. Free lets you add up to 3 calculators to your website and receive 10 leads per month — no credit card. Every lead beyond the cap is still captured and held for you; upgrading to Pro ($29/mo) opens them all retroactively and removes the cap.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You get an embed code (one line of HTML). Paste it into your website builder — Wix, Squarespace, WordPress, or any custom site. That's it.
How accurate are the price estimates?
You configure the calculator formulas to match your actual pricing. Leadkit provides the framework; you set the numbers. Estimates can be as detailed or as rough as you like.
What happens with lead data?
All lead data is stored securely in your workspace. You own it. We never sell or share your leads with anyone.
Can I use Leadkit as an agency for multiple clients?
Yes — our Agency plan lets you create and manage separate workspaces for each of your clients, all from one dashboard.
What's the difference between the plans?
Free: up to 3 calculators, 10 leads/month (over-cap leads held + locked until upgrade). Pro: unlimited leads, unlimited calculators, white-label, branded email sending, analytics, email templates. Agency: everything in Pro plus multi-workspace management.

How it works
How this skip bin hire estimate is calculated
This calculator produces an estimate, not a binding quote. Your skip bin company will confirm the final price after reviewing your requirements.
GST handling: All estimates include 10% GST as required under Australian tax law. GST is shown as a separate line item.
1
Base rate by bin size
Each bin size has a per-cubic-metre rate. Larger bins cost less per m³ but more overall due to transport and tip fees.
base_rate = bin_size × rate_per_m³
2
Waste type surcharge
Heavy materials like concrete, bricks and soil cost more to dispose of due to weight-based tip fees. Construction waste attracts up to a 50% surcharge.
Standard hire is 7 days. Shorter hires get a small discount; longer hires are prorated. Monthly hire suits ongoing construction projects.
hire_cost = base_rate × duration_factor
4
Council permit and extras
On-road placement requires a council permit ($50–$300 depending on your local council). Weekend pickup attracts a surcharge for out-of-hours collection.
extras = permit_cost + weekend_fee
5
GST and total
GST at 10% is added to the subtotal. The minimum job fee ensures small bins are economically viable to deliver and collect.
total = (subtotal + GST) where subtotal ≥ minimum_job_fee
Skip bin prices vary by size, waste type and location. Sydney and Melbourne typically run 10–20% above regional areas due to higher tip fees and transport costs.

Sydney and Melbourne prices sit 10–20% above the national average. Regional and outer-suburban areas are typically cheaper due to lower tip fees and shorter transport distances.
