Skip Hire Services
Witham

The size of skip you should hire depends on the amount and type of waste you need to dispose of. If you underestimate your needs, you may end up needing to order an additional skip, leading to extra costs and inconvenience. On the other hand, overestimating your needs may result in paying for more space than necessary. The skips we have available are:

• Mini Skips (2-3 cubic yards) – Ideal for small home projects or garden clean-ups.
• Midi Skips (4-5 cubic yards) – Suitable for larger domestic projects such as kitchen or bathroom renovations.
• Builder’s Skips (6-8 cubic yards) – Great for bulky waste from larger projects like home extensions or building works.
• Maxi Skips (10-16 cubic yards) – Good for commercial use, including shop fitting and office clear-outs.

When it comes to skip hire, it’s generally better to overestimate your waste disposal needs rather than underestimate them. Booking a skip that’s slightly larger than initially thought necessary provides a buffer for unforeseen waste, preventing the hassle and additional costs associated with hiring an extra skip at the last minute. Overestimating ensures you have ample space for all your waste, enabling a more efficient cleanup without the worry of overflow. This approach also helps in adhering to the collection schedule, as arranging a second skip can lead to delays, impacting project timelines. Moreover, ensuring you have enough space for all types of waste—especially bulky or heavy items—makes the whole process smoother, safer, and more organised, avoiding the need for ad hoc solutions that might not comply with regulations.
