Skip Size comparison
It can be challenging to choose which skip size is ideal for your needs if you have never rented a skip before. The diagram below may help you compare skip sizes when standing next to someone of average height, even though we indicate how many bin bags you can fit in a skip. Remember that while certain skip dimensions may vary slightly, they all have a fixed capacity in cubic yards.

Most popular skip sizes are the 4- and 6-yard sizes, sometimes referred to as builder’s skips. These sizes are not only more adaptable, but they can also be utilized for heavier trash, including dirt or debris. Some heavy debris can fit in an 8-yard skip, but particularly heavy rubbish, such soil or solid rubble, can be too much. Larger skips, such 16- and 40-yard skips, are meant for heavier, bulkier rubbish, and because they are taller.
