6 Yard Skip | Kitchen/bathroom refits, DIY upgrades | ~ 60 black bags of general waste |
8 Yard Skip | Multiple rooms, bigger renovation packs | ~ 80 black bags of general waste |
12 Yard Skip | Full house clearances or major construction waste | ~ 120 black bags of general waste |
The first thing you need to do is assess the scope of your project. You can use this template for convenience:
If you have a rough idea of how many bags you expect, the numbers in the table above are a great guide to quickly figure out what skip size will be the optimal solution.
Keep in mind that a smaller skip size may require multiple hires, so it often makes sense to get a slightly larger size to be on the safe side (especially since the price difference is not significant).
Here are some examples you can use to choose the best option:
You may need Skip Bags or Man & Van services rather than a larger skip size if your area has restricted access or tight driveways.
If you need a skip for commercial or industrial volumes, we can offer 40-yard RoRo containers, which are designed for large waste loads.
