When your project demands that bit more space, the 8 yard skip is ready to step in. With room for up to 80 bin bags of waste, it’s well-suited to larger renovation work, full house clearances, or substantial garden landscaping jobs.
Like the 6 yard skip, the 8 yard is commonly seen on building sites, but it offers extra capacity for bulkier waste like furniture, wood, packaging, or general household debris. If you're dealing with heavy waste like soil or rubble, though, always check with your supplier, many won’t allow these materials in skips larger than 6 yards due to weight limits.
Despite its increased volume, the 8 yard skip can still fit on most driveways and doesn’t require commercial-scale access. It’s a practical choice when the 6 yard just isn’t quite enough, saving you from needing to hire a second skip mid-way through the job.
If you’re clearing out a full home, replacing a kitchen and bathroom, or stripping back a large garden, the 8 yard skip gives you that added breathing space to get the job done in one go.
Permit Requirements: If the skip is placed on public property (roadside), a permit may be required.
Weight Restrictions: Large skips might not be suitable for heavy materials like bricks or soil due to weight limits.
Hazardous Waste: Items like asbestos, paint, and batteries require special disposal methods.
