Bin sizes
Skip bin sizes from 3m³ to 6m³
Every bin in our fleet, what it holds and the jobs it suits. If you are between two sizes, the larger bin is usually cheaper than a second delivery.
3m³ skip bin hire
The 3m³ skip bin is our smallest bin and the easiest to place on a narrow driveway. It suits a single room, a shed, or a weekend of yard work without taking up the whole driveway.
- • Holds about 3 standard 6x4 trailer loads
- • roughly 13 to 15 household wheelie bins
- • approximately 2.4m long x 1.5m wide x 0.9m high
4m³ skip bin hire
The 4m³ skip bin is our most-booked size. It handles a typical kitchen or bathroom renovation, a big garden overhaul or a house move without needing a mid-job swap.
- • Holds about 4 standard 6x4 trailer loads
- • roughly 18 to 20 household wheelie bins
- • approximately 3.0m long x 1.6m wide x 1.0m high
5m³ skip bin hire
The 5m³ skip bin gives you extra volume for bulky, light waste such as furniture, timber and packaging — the kind of job where a smaller bin fills faster than expected.
- • Holds about 5 standard 6x4 trailer loads
- • roughly 22 to 25 household wheelie bins
- • approximately 3.4m long x 1.7m wide x 1.1m high
6m³ skip bin hire
The 6m³ skip bin is our largest bin and the practical choice for builders, big renovations and whole-home clear-outs where a single bin needs to do the lot.
- • Holds about 6 standard 6x4 trailer loads
- • roughly 27 to 30 household wheelie bins
- • approximately 3.6m long x 1.8m wide x 1.2m high
