Is a 6 Yard Skip right for me?

For those tackling medium-sized projects or managing a mix of bulky and heavy waste, the 6 cubic yard skip is an ideal choice. Often referred to as the “builder’s skip,” this versatile option is perfect for handling up to 60 bin bags full of waste, making it suitable for a range of tasks.

Many suppliers will only allow a maximum of a 6 yard skip if your project involves a lot of heavy and compact materials such as soil or broken up concrete. So if your project will produce a lot of this type of waste then this is as big as you can go.

Whether you’re undertaking a home renovation, clearing out a garage, or working on a medium-scale landscaping project, the 6-yard skip offers the capacity needed without taking up excessive space. It’s a popular choice for both residential and commercial projects due to its balance between size and practicality.

The 6-yard skip is compact enough to fit on most driveways, ensuring easy access and convenience. Moreover, it’s a more cost-efficient option if you have a larger volume of waste, as it reduces the need for multiple trips to the tip or hiring additional skips.

If you need more room in your skip, have a larger renovation or clearance project then you might want to consider a larger 8 yard skip.
