Skip / Bin Single Placement

A local law permit can be obtained for the one-off placement of a skip/bin in a road reserve within the Mornington Peninsula Shire.

This application should be completed by the supplier of the skip/bin and will apply for a seven-day period. If a skip/bin is to be placed at a site for longer than a seven-day period a new application will be required for each consecutive seven-day period.

Apply for a Local Law Permit to Place a Skip/Bin

Permits will no longer be issued for placement on the Roadway or Carparks these applications will require an Occupy Road Permit please visit our Occupation of a road or footpath permit page for more information.

Step 1.Determine whether a permit is required

If you are placing a skip or bin on the nature strip or road reserve, and are not an accredited waste management supplier with the Mornington Peninsula Shire, you will need to apply for a permit.

If you regularly place skips or bins within the Mornington Peninsula Shire it may be more cost effective to become an accredited waste management supplier.

Step 2.Lodge your application

A permit should be applied for by the company supplying the skip/bin. 

An application for a permit may take up to 5 days to process. Please lodge any applications 5 days prior to the intended placement of the skip/bin to ensure time for processing.

Apply online

Once the application has been completed and lodged you can expect a response within 5 days.

Who needs to apply for a permit?

A permit must be applied for by the company placing the skip/bin. If that company is a Waste Management Accredited Supplier with the Shire a discounted permit fee is applied.

How much does a permit cost?

A fee of $91.00 is applicable for each application.

What if I am placing several bins on the Peninsula?

If you are placing several skips or bins in multiple locations on the Peninsula, it may be more cost effective to become an Accredited Waste Management Supplier with the Shire. An annual fee will then allow for an easier placement process and reduced fee for placements of skips or bins for the year.
