Builders Skips: Suitable for domestic or business. The most popular type of skip.
If you need to hire a skip, contact your local council, they may have a list of approved skip hire companies.
Builders Skips: Capacity, 6-8 cu yards or 4.6 - 6.1 cu meters. Height, 4' or 1.22 meters. Length, 12' or 3.66 meters. Width 5'6” or 1.68 meters.
For safety reasons it’s always safer to place skips on the road instead of the pavement.
Try to think realistically about what needs to thrown away. Two small skips will cost more to hire than a large one.
Normally a skip permit is valid for a month after which can be renewed.
An enclosed skip is the safest available skip because it will stop contents falling out and prevent dust flying up when waste is put into the skip.
Usually the vehicle delivering the skip to your house will be a LGV and are normally very large. Make sure there is enough room to allow it in and out safely.
If you’re skip needs to be placed on the pavement or road, then it’s the up to the skip hire company to make sure they have a valid licence or permit for the skip.
Large Skips: Suitable for domestic or business use. Ideal for big bulky items.
When carrying out renovations or building works to your property, you may find that you need to hire a builder's skip to get rid of the rubble or rubbish. 4th November, 2006
