‘What size skip do I need?’
The question of how to select the right skip size for the job is always foremost for people who have never hired a skip before, plus there is usually a need to balance the right skip size against a desire to select the most economical option possible. However, if you are choosing between two skip sizes then we always recommend selecting the larger skip. This is because it is illegal for us to transport skips that have been overfilled.
A skip is defined as overfull when the material has been piled up above the lip of the skip, or when the material is too heavy for the skip. This means that sometimes an effort to save money by selecting a smaller skip size could turn out to be a false economy, as unfortunately, we will have no choice but to remove some of the material before the skip can be taken away. If this is the case then some kind of additional waste removal service will be required, and hiring two small skips is certainly less cost-effective than hiring one larger one!
