Hope Island skip hire, gates and all
Hope Island has gated estates, waterfront homes and unit complexes, so access matters as much as size. Price your bin online, see how soon the 36-hour notice lets it arrive, and keep it for two weeks.
Earliest date you can book
36 hours from booking
We need 36 hours' notice. Book before midday, Queensland time, and tomorrow is the earliest date you can pick.
An island of three communities
Water almost encircles Hope Island. West and north, the Coomera River; south, Saltwater Creek; east, the river's southern arm. Inside that loop are three distinct communities: Sanctuary Cove up top, Santa Barbara on the western side and Boykambil over in the east.
Sanctuary Cove and the resort gates
Sanctuary Cove sits behind gates, with several residential body corporates running it, and some Hope Island Resort precincts are gated as well. Read your estate's skip rules and book gate access for the truck before the delivery date, so nothing stalls on the day.
Homes that look over water or a course
Lots of homes here overlook a marina or a canal, and others back onto a golf course (the resort's own, or The Palms or The Pines). Typical jobs: new kitchens and bathrooms, reworked outdoor living areas and complete garden makeovers. With the view side facing away from the street, the front driveway is where the bin belongs.
Santa Barbara Road complexes
The unit complexes on Santa Barbara Road share their driveways and visitor parking, so it's the body corporate that chooses where a bin goes. Where space is tight, the 3m³ is the easiest to fit, and it still holds about twelve wheelie bins of waste.
Council permits on Hope Island
Inside your property boundary, including a spot your body corporate has approved, no permit is needed. Public land is another matter: for the street, verge or footpath, apply to the City of Gold Coast. The application is yours to lodge, and the responsibility too; ASAP Skip doesn't organise permits.
Picking a size on Hope Island
A bathroom update or clearing out a unit sits comfortably in a 3m³ or 4m³, and both suit a tight driveway. A waterfront house getting a new kitchen plus living areas may take a 6m³ (two dozen wheelie bins) or 9m³ (three dozen). Old pavers go in a Concrete & Clean Rubble bin of 6m³ or less, and garden makeover waste in Green Waste, with nothing else mixed in.
Hope Island bins and prices
The big number is the green waste price; general waste is underneath. GST, drop-off, collection and 14 days of hire are all in the figure.

Hope Island questions
What do I organise before a skip enters Sanctuary Cove?
Check the estate's skip bin rules, then arrange gate access for the truck ahead of delivery day. Do the same if you live behind one of the Hope Island Resort gates.
Is AM or PM a fixed delivery time?
No, it's a preference the driver plans around. Make sure the gate can be opened at any point in the morning or afternoon you picked.
Can I keep the bin longer than a fortnight?
Yes. Fourteen days are included, and checkout lets you add seven more days ($35) or go unlimited ($50). You can choose one, not both.
Where can the skip go in a Santa Barbara Road complex?
Wherever the body corporate approves on common property. If there's nowhere on site, a kerbside placement means you'll be applying to council for a permit.
Renovating on Hope Island?
Sort gate access, choose your bin, and book the earliest date that fits.
