Rubbish
He's busy evicting Oscar the grouch from his bin

what sort of ryobi deals?
this not ryobi…this wheeliebin
Sales on a bunch of their 18V one+. If I can get back there for photos I will. Noticed mark downs on recip saws, jigsaws, impact driver, hammer drill. Might be just QLD / Fairfield store.
Are these wheelie good?
wheelie (profanity) good
Might be a good option for the garage
Will council collect/empty these?
Council? No
Driver? Maybe
Yes, but check with council what sizes their trucks can collect.
Temped as it's good for extra rubbish or green rubbish on some occasions. Not sure if the driver minds picking up
no ….council wont pick it up. if it isnt a council bin theyll just ignore it….waste is run by private companies and they dont (profanity) around taking free trash for you outside council allocated waste
Just paint a white blob that vaguely resembles the council logo on your other bins and you'll be fine.
Doesn’t usually work that way. You need to apply through council for an extra bin. They’ll supply the bin and you’ll pay a higher waste levy on your council rates.
no
My council has microchips on the bin lid, so they can detect which ones are valid and if/when they have been emptied.
So.. probably not
Have they just rolled out the new bins and replaced the old traditional ones?
Location Melbourne
Checks out.
Trust Dan to vax the bins.😋
Depends on the council, mine does.
I think i need one of these for my kids hotwheels toys
Paint it red/yellow/green for council to pick up XD
Generally, 3rd party bins in our area are treated as Normal red lid.
cheeky….lol
there are other markings on the council bins though so youre screwed if anyone checks…and yeah they sometimes do
I found out council garbage trucks have a camera and they record the serial number on the side of bins they empty. My bin was stolen (? JV 😂), so I filled out a form to get a new one from the council.
The council said my bin was still 'active' in the neighbourhood and they could tell because of the serial numbers captured by the cameras.
I wasn't going to hunt it down and find it. Council just gave me a new one.
Council gave me a new one without a form.
I wonder if they’d charging me for both even though I reported it stolen.
Showing $68.90 for the 240L in Perth WA.
WA stay winning and Bigly
Good ice bath?
With a step to get in and out
Bin waiting for this to come up again
bin waiting for a proper bin pun
Normal price is trash
This is a pretty wicket deal
These bins give handies? Nice. ʘ‿ʘ
just report someone stole your bins and council will give you a free new one
stat dec required! …you will be committing perjury! (or something)
I am tempted to try this because my bins look really shit (previous owners got paint all over them etc)
I just rang them up and said one of their drivers just smashed it on the ground during collection. New bin delivered the following week.
Got mine for 68.90 as thats the price that comes up when you don't choose a store on the website
I'm so glad Bunnings has a video describing how a wheelie bin works, as it had me scratching my head!
There must be some absolute dumb AF people out there that Bunnings thought this was needed.
its just the convincing your boos that its a 2 man job kinda deal
Cockatoos In my area got it down pat.
bin chickens are still king
240L is only $59 in Bunnings SA stores :)
little bit slower than the red ones but still CAMS approved for annual downhill ozbargain wheelie bin. derby Remember kiddies wear a helment when riding wheelie bins, we want you back to buy more bargains
Thanks OP! Woodville, SA had the 240l for $59 so even more of a bargain.
Will council know you have additional bins kept in your home? It's funny how they are in to it, when we had 1 extra bin, they did an audit and discovered that and took it away without our consent. Not fuss about it, just my experience.
they literally use aerial photography / drones etc for this sort of shit
or your neighbours are snitches!
We bought our house a year ago and we had 4 bins. Red lid, green lid, yellow lid and a smaller singular coloured black/dark green bin.
I had NFI what this mystery 4th bin was but I saw other people with the same bin and using it like the red lid. So I assumed we were paying for 2 red lid bins. So I put them both out and for months they emptied both every week.
Then two weeks in a row they ignored that extra bin. I got annoyed because the stuff in there was really starting to stink, so I reported that they didn't take my rubbish and left just that bin out and they emptied it. I emailed them about it and they said I was not registered for an extra bin, so I told them to come take it away and they did.
Every council must be so different in these situations.
Can make a DIY rainwater tank with these. Just connect a downpipe diverter and drill/install an outlet near the bottom of the bin.
even cheaper option….olive drums/barrels from gumtree.
ive hooked up 4 together in an array for about 900L storage…at around $20 each theyre great value and are very durable
I ozbargained my neighbours bin for free
I would think the main use case for this is collecting cans and bottles for cash back. Takes a lot of bottles and cans to get ROI though
Found them another $4 each cheaper at my local today so got the 100L one.
Where is JV, advising these are free once a week down every Aussie Street? 😂
