Aussie Skip Bags

Region(s) Brisbane View highlighted opportunities 5
Investment amount $195,000.00 Industry Domestic Services
Aussie Skip Bags, foundered by Wayne Loane, businessman from the Sunshine Coast, and Chris Bates, founder of the global virtual touring franchise Open 2 View, offer a complete waste management and removal system for the domestic market, supplying a new and innovative skip bag product that allows customers to contain all their waste securely for removal. Aussie Skip Bags are designed using polypropylene material in a weave format, allowing for significant payloads to be removed. Contents are restricted to the same waste types allowed in traditional steel skip bins as sharp materials cannot cause the bag to tear, rip or fail.

All bags, rated by size, carry capacity and kangaroo name, have been rigorously tested by a NATA accredited Australian laboratory, and are able to be used on all local and state government tenders.

Some key points to note when comparing Skip Bags to traditional Skip Bins are:

• Bags can be posted to households, halving the vehicle and labour cost of current ‘drop skip off’ ‘pick skip up’ systems.
• Bags can be supplied in different colours for different waste types, providing cost incentives for households to sort their waste.
• ASB trucks are up to ¼ the GVM of standard Skip Bin Trucks, significantly lowering truck running costs.
• ASB trucks do not need to carry loads in cumbersome steel skips, reducing load weight by 140-300kg for EACH pickup.
• ASB truck bodies are built with efficiency in mind, using full alloy tip bodies and adequate crane sizes, eliminating hundreds of kilos of truck weight.
• ASB Job orders are seamlessly passed on to the closest ASB trucks, smart routed to avoid downtimes and ensure high priority pickups are removed immediately.
• Aussie Skip Bags work closely with communities, councils and governing bodies to provide real solutions to the real waste management issues we face.

Aussie Skip Bags currently have franchises operating on the Sunshine Coast and areas contracted throughout Northern Queensland, and are looking to begin the servicing of Brisbane and Gold Coast areas.
