What size skip do I need for a house clearance? →

For a full house clearance, a large 14 or 16 yard skip is usually the best fit, while a mini skip is often enough for a smaller clear-out. Choosing the right skip size can feel tricky, but our team is here to help. With a few quick questions about your project, we can recommend the best option for your needs. To give you an idea, here are the skips we offer and their typical uses:

Mini Skips (4 & 6 yard): Ideal for garden waste, small DIY jobs and minor home clearances.
Midi Skips (8, 10 & 12 yard): Perfect for kitchen or bathroom renovations, medium-sized projects and light construction waste.
Large Skips (14 & 16 yard): Great for full house clearances, bulky items, large refurbishments and heavier building waste.
RoRo Containers (20, 25, 35 & 40 yard): Best for large commercial or industrial waste, demolition projects and high-volume material removal.

Do I need a permit for a skip in Hertfordshire? →

If your skip is placed on private land, such as a driveway, you do not need a permit. If you plan to hire a skip and place it on a public road or verge, you must obtain a permit from your local council before delivery. We are happy to advise on whether a permit is required and what to ask for, but the application and payment are your responsibility. Permit costs and processing times vary by council, so please apply in good time. Your council may also require the skip to be lit at night and fitted with reflective markings.

What can and cannot go in a skip? →

Our general waste skips are for mixed everyday rubbish from household, garden and construction projects. We also provide specific skips for single waste streams such as plasterboard, wood, garden waste, and inert, which helps keep costs down and makes recycling more efficient.

For safety, environmental and handling reasons, there are items we cannot accept in any of our skips. These include:

Hazardous waste: paints, chemicals, asbestos, flammable, toxic or water-reactive substances, medical or clinical waste, animal or human waste.
Liquids and oils: any liquids, including cooking oil.
Bulky items: large pipes, tractor or digger tyres.

If you’re unsure whether an item can go in your skip, please visit our ‘What Can Go In A Skip?’ page for more details or contact our team and we’ll be happy to advise on safe disposal alternatives.

How long can I keep a skip for? →

Our standard hire period is up to 2 weeks. If you need the skip for longer, we can usually arrange an extension for a small daily fee.
