Tree removal creates more waste than most homeowners expect.

A few cut branches quickly become a large pile of brush. Add logs, leaves, and cleanup debris, and your driveway can disappear under the mess.

If you are clearing trees or brush in Mulmur, you need to know three things:

  • What a brush bin accepts

  • Which bin size fits your project

  • How much disposal will cost

This guide breaks it down clearly.

Tor Bin Rental delivers driveway-safe bins throughout Mulmur and nearby communities, including Alliston, Lisle, Everett, and Angus. You can review services and pricing, choose your rental dates, and book a bin online 24/7.

What Goes in a Brush Bin?

A brush bin is designed for clean organic tree and yard waste.

✅ Brush bin materials

You can generally load:

  • Tree branches

  • Logs and cut tree sections

  • Brush

  • Shrub trimmings

  • Hedge material

  • Leaves

  • Small limbs

  • Clean, untreated natural wood

Cut long branches and logs into manageable pieces when possible. This helps you load the bin safely and use the available space efficiently.

Do not build a tall, unstable pile above the top of the bin. All materials must stay below the rim for safe transportation.

⚠️ What does not belong in a brush bin?

Do not place these materials in a Shingle & Yard Waste or brush bin:

  • Tree stumps

  • Root balls

  • Large amounts of soil attached to roots

  • Garbage or household junk

  • Plastic bags

  • Treated lumber

  • Painted or stained wood

  • Construction debris

  • Furniture

  • Appliances

  • Concrete, asphalt, or rocks

  • Chemicals, fuel, or hazardous waste

A brush bin is not a general-purpose garbage bin. Keeping the load clean helps avoid sorting issues, rejected material, or extra charges.

If you are unsure about a specific item, contact Tor Bin Rental at info@torbinrental.ca before loading it.

When Is a Household Bin the Better Choice?

Tree removal projects do not always create tree waste only.

You may also remove:

  • An old shed

  • Broken fencing

  • Landscaping timbers

  • Outdoor furniture

  • Building materials

  • Cardboard and packaging

  • Household clutter

  • Renovation debris

Use this simple rule:

  • If your load is only branches, logs, brush, and leaves, then choose a brush bin.

  • If your load contains tree waste plus household or construction debris, then choose a Household & Construction Waste bin.

  • If your load contains soil, concrete, or asphalt, then choose the specialty 8-yard bin.

  • If your load contains stumps, then contact us before booking to confirm the correct disposal option.

Mixing materials can change the disposal category. It can also affect the final price. Sort your waste before delivery whenever possible.

July 2026 Brush Bin Pricing in Mulmur

For clean tree and brush waste, Tor Bin Rental offers 14-yard and 20-yard brush bins.

Brush bin rate

  • 14-yard or 20-yard brush bin:$200 + $110 per metric tonne

This is the brush-specific pricing structure. It is separate from the general household and construction waste rates listed below.

All prices are starting rates. Your final price can vary by postal code and is subject to H.S.T. A 5% fuel surcharge applies to all rentals.

General bin pricing

These general rates are best suited to household waste, construction debris, renovation material, and mixed cleanup loads.

What does the Regular Rate include?

The Regular Rate includes:

  • 7-day rental

  • Delivery

  • Pickup

  • Up to 1 metric tonne of disposal

Additional weight is charged at:

  • $130 per metric tonne

Choose the Regular Rate if you have a reasonably predictable load and want to pay based on the actual weight disposed.

What does the All-In Rate include?

The All-In Rate includes unlimited disposal for the accepted material category.

Choose All-In if:

  • If you have a large or difficult-to-estimate cleanup, then All-In can simplify your budget.

  • If your tree removal includes a large amount of mixed household or renovation waste, then All-In may be easier to plan.

  • If you do not want to calculate the final disposal weight, then choose All-In.

All-In does not permit prohibited materials or unsafe overloading. Every load must still match the booked waste category.

Which Bin Size Fits Your Tree Cleanup?

Choose the 14-yard brush bin if:

  • You removed one or two medium-sized trees.

  • You have a moderate brush pile.

  • Most branches and logs are cut into manageable sections.

  • You are clearing a smaller lot or section of your property.

The 14-yard size measures 8' wide x 14' long x 3.5' high.

It offers useful capacity without taking up as much vertical space as the 20-yard option.

Choose the 20-yard brush bin if:

  • You removed several mature trees.

  • You are clearing a long hedge row.

  • You have storm-damaged trees across a larger property.

  • You are completing major brush clearing.

  • You want to reduce the risk of needing a second bin.

The 20-yard size measures 8' wide x 14' long x 5' high.

It gives you more volume for bulky branches and logs. You still need to distribute the load evenly and keep everything below the top edge.

Important: The 8-Yard Bin Is Specialty Disposal Only

The 8-yard bin is not a general cleanup bin.

Its dimensions are:

  • 7' wide x 14' long x 2' high

It is strictly for:

  • Soil: $300

  • Concrete or asphalt: $350

Do not book the 8-yard bin for household waste, construction debris, branches, or general yard cleanup.

If your tree removal includes soil-covered roots, rocks, or material from a driveway project, separate those materials and confirm the correct bin before booking.

Booking, Delivery, Loading, and Pickup

1. Booking

Start by sorting your waste into categories:

  • Clean brush and tree wood

  • Household or construction waste

  • Soil, concrete, or asphalt

  • Stumps and root material

Then choose the bin that matches the largest part of your load.

You can book online without making a phone call. Enter your postal code to view available options and pricing.

2. Delivery

Choose a stable placement area with enough room for the delivery truck.

For rural Mulmur properties, check:

  • Narrow laneways

  • Low branches

  • Gates

  • Soft ground

  • Steep slopes

  • Overhead wires

  • Sharp turns

  • Vehicles blocking access

Tor Bin Rental uses driveway-safe bins and protective placement methods to help protect asphalt, concrete, and other surfaces.

Review the Tor Bin Rental service area before booking if your property is outside the main Mulmur area.

3. Loading

Load the heaviest material first when practical. Then use smaller branches and leaves to fill open spaces.

Follow these rules:

  • Cut long branches into manageable sections.

  • Spread logs evenly.

  • Keep the load below the rim.

  • Do not mix prohibited materials into clean brush.

  • Do not leave branches sticking out.

  • Keep children and pets away while loading.

NEVER OVERLOAD THE BIN. Unsafe loads may need to be corrected before pickup.

4. Pickup and disposal

When the cleanup is complete, arrange pickup through your booking details. Tor Bin Rental handles the removal and disposal so you do not need to make repeated trips with a trailer or pickup truck.

You can also ask about:

  • Early pickup

  • Rental extensions

  • 3-day, 7-day, or monthly rental terms

That flexibility helps when tree removal depends on weather, contractors, or a larger rural property schedule.
