The most popular skip size in the UK
Due to their size and the different waste types that can go into them, 8 yard skips are the most popular size ordered for domestic and commercial projects. They’re the best choice for home and garden renovations where you need to dispose of the waste as you create it.
They are also known as Builders Skip, as they’re a convenient size for the amount of waste produced on building projects, such as renovations and large garden projects.
8 yard skips will hold approximately 60-80 bin bags worth of waste and are the biggest size skip that can go onto a public road.
How much does an 8 yard skip cost?
An 8 yard skip starts from £264.00, including VAT. If you do not have private land, including a driveway or a garden, you will need a permit from your local council to place the skip on the public road.
An additional cost for the council permit will be added to your total in the checkout. Our helpful team will arrange your permit for you but will contact you if they need any more information.
An 8 yard skip is the largest size that can contain heavy materials such as rubble and soil due to a legal travel weight we must adhere to.
For more information, please read our detailed article on what you can and can’t put into a skip.
