Types of Skips Available

We offer a variety of skip sizes to suit different projects. Midi skips (4-6 yards) are perfect for small to medium sized projects, such as kitchen or bathroom refits. Builder’s skips, our most popular sizes (6-8 yards) are suitable for larger renovation projects or construction sites. Large skips (12 yards) are ideal for major construction projects and commercial waste management. For extensive projects, we offer Roll-On/Roll-Off (RORO) skips (20-35 yards) that can handle substantial volumes of waste.

Hire Duration

Our standard skip hire period is 14 days. However, we understand that certain projects may require more time. If you need to extend your hire beyond the 14-day period, please inform us at the time of booking so we can accommodate your request.
