6-Yard Skip
​
Our 6 yard skips are a standard-size skip designed to handle heavy objects and can be used for waste from renovation and building projects. Also known as a small builders skip, these are the largest size skip for very heavy waste such as hardcore/rubble, soil or concrete. They are perfect for larger clearances or home renovation projects and offer better value for money. Although the dimensions may vary throughout our range the internal volume is the same and is 6 cubic yards.
Average dimensions:
2.6m X 1.7m X 1m
Capacity:
65 to 70 bin bags
Usage:
Building waste, kitchens, bathrooms, heavy items, domestic waste, light items & more.
8-Yard Skip
​
If you need to remove a lot of bulky items, then our 8-Yard skips are perfect for holding a mixture of soil, rubble (50% max) and other general light waste. Builder’s skips are one of the most common sizes of skips you’ll see as they hold a considerable amount of waste and are still relatively easy to tip rubbish into. You can fit approximately 70-80 bin bags in an 8 yard skip, but ultimately it depends on the type of waste you have. Maximise the capacity of your skip by putting large, bulky items in first.
Top Tip – 8 yard skips are usually the largest size of skip which will be approved for a permit to go on the road. This varies by council and the best way to check is to contact us as councils will not deal with the public directly.
Dimensions:
3.6m X 1.7m X 1.2m
Capacity:
70 to 80 bin bags
Usage:
Building waste, kitchens, bathrooms, heavy items, domestic waste, light items & more.
12-Yard Skip
​
If you want a cost-effective solution and have a lot of waste to dispose of, then our 12-yard skips are the best solution for building projects. They are the second largest standard skip size available, to our huge 16-yard skip. This makes 12 yard skips suitable for large domestic projects such as kitchen refurbishments, garden waste (exc. lots of soil/rubble) and general clearances. They are often used for bulky items when clearing an office. You may find that a permit is not approved on the road, so please check with us before placing an order.
Dimensions:
3.7m X 1.7m X 1.8m
Capacity:
110-120 bin bags
Usage:
Building waste, kitchens, bathrooms, heavy items (exc. full loads of soil/rubble), domestic waste, light items & more.
