The Foundation of Skipbin.com
Skipbin.com was founded in 2019 with the primary-focus of bringing a better customer experience to the average skip bin booking process.
We realised that the average skip bin provider is often an owner operator, which juggles several tasks a day and sometimes this can negatively impact on how the customer can feel after interacting with a supplier.
This may come in the way of unanswered calls, unanswered voicemails, a broken promise of a call back, a lack of enthusiasm of customer service, or overall a lack of passion while shopping around for the best price and service when picking a skip bin supplier.

and reviews at Word of Mouth have Book A Bin coming in with a 1.5 Star average out of 5 (https://www.wordofmouth.com.au/reviews/bookabin-skip-and-bin-hire-melbourne)
Bookabin.com.au has been in business since 2001, but the first snapshot of their website being in operation is in 2006.
Bookabin.com.au has had the same website design, and system since 2013, almost nine-years and seems to not have updated many of their features of their website.
Bookabin.com.au is owned and operated by a company called Hartford Technologies Limited and is based and operated from their main office in New Zealand, not Australia although they may have an Australian Office.
The Owners and Directors of Bookabin.com.au are from New Zealand background, and more recently now run a physical waste recycling plant called Green Gorilla which they have invested millions of dollars, and receive a $9M NZD Government Assistance Contract for the operation of rubbish and recycling disposal.
Hartford also owns a division in Australia that produces and supplies Bunnings Warehouse and other warehouse companies with tough bags also known as Skip Bags which would suggest their primary focus is no longer Bookabin.com.au but now in the retail, manufacturing, sorting and processing of waste and consumable products.
