How much waste do skips hold?

We offer a range of skips so that our customers can hire the skip that’s right for them and won’t waste their money by hiring a skip that is too big for their requirements. Our smallest skip is the 2 yard skip which will hold approximately 25 rubbish bags.

Our full range of skips and the approximate number of rubbish bags they will hold is summarised below:

Skip size Approximate Rubbish Bag Capacity
2 Yard 25
4 Yard 45
8 Yard 85
12 Yard 120
14 Yard 145
15 Yard RORO 200
20 Yard RORO 220
40 Yard RORO 440

We ask that you only load the skip up to the level of the top of the skip i.e. don’t mound rubbish over the top of the skip. Doing so will prevent the skip from being loaded onto the truck when we pick it up to take away.
