Skips are referred in terms of cubic yards that is: 1 yard high x 1 yard wide x 1 yard deep.

The 4 yard skip is suitable for domestic customers doing garden clearance or home renovation.

6 yard skips are used for slightly larger DIY projects and are commonly used for street parking.

Construction companies usually hire 8 yard skips as these are suitable for heavy waste such as rubble, concrete, and soil.

Many times, before ordering skips larger than 8 yards, you need to call your local authority. 12 and 16 yard skips are ideal for larger clearances, including bulky and light waste types.
