Skip Services Available in Sunderland
Various skip services are available depending on the size and type of job you’re doing. Common skip hiring services are listed below:
- Domestic skips. If you’re starting a DIY project around the house, clearing your garden or moving home, we can find the right-sized skip at the perfect price.
- Commercial skips. They are usually larger in size and mainly used for shop refits, building projects, replacing old office furniture, or clearing out old stock. Commercial skips are available in different sizes, depending on the amount of your waste.
- Roll on roll off skips. If you don’t think a traditional skip can accommodate your waste, roll on roll off skips can dispose of even larger quantities of waste efficiently. Perfect for large commercial and industrial operations.
- Wait and load. Lacking enough garden space or don’t have a permit for a skip? No problem! Our drivers can arrive and wait for you to load the skip, then simply take it away. Wait and loads are useful alternatives to traditional skip hires.
- Hazardous waste removal. Waste is hazardous when it poses a threat to human health and the environment. Common hazardous waste includes asbestos, chemicals, batteries, paints, pesticides, fridges, freezers and medical waste.

Skip Sizes Available in Sunderland
You should know the quantity of your waste to hire the right skip that will fit your waste. If you hire too large, you’ll pay too much. On the other hand, if you hire too small, you’ll probably have to hire another one.
Take a look at the skip size guide below to determine the approximate size of your skip:
- 2 yard mini skips hold about 20 bags / 6.5 wheelie bins / 2 tonnes of waste. They were regularly used for very small jobs, but the increased use of the cheaper man and van clearance and skip bags means they have become quite rare nowadays.
- 4 yard midi skips hold about 25-35 bags / 13 wheelie bins / 4 tonnes of waste. They are ideal for garden clearance or bathroom and kitchen refits and similar domestic uses.
- 6 yard skips hold about 55-60 bags / 19 wheelie bins / 6 tonnes of waste. They are the most popular types of skip and are ideal for removing a large bathroom, a medium-sized kitchen, and other DIY building projects.
- 8 yard skips hold about 80 bags / 25 wheelie bins / 8 tonnes of waste. They are the most common skip size hired when it comes to shop refits, complete house and office clearance jobs, digging out the foundations of house extensions, and other larger excavation jobs. They are the biggest skips available for heavy waste like rubble, soil and concrete. They are often known as the ‘builders skip’.
- 10 yard skips hold about 100 bags / 32 wheelie bins / 10 tonnes of waste. They are ideal for large clearances of light rubbish.
- 12 yard maxi skips hold about 100-120 bags / 32-40 wheelie bins / 12 tonnes of waste. They are ideal for large amounts of plastic, metal, and packaging waste, although no heavy waste materials can be used. Ensure you have enough space in your garden or driveway since a permit will be required if they are placed roadside.
Skip sizes go up to 40 yards and are more suitable for industrial and commercial clients. For larger sizes please contact us for more information. For smaller sizes, feel free to request a quote and compare skip prices in Sunderland.
What Happens to Your Waste?
Skip hire companies collect your skip once you load it and take it to a registered waste transfer station to be disposed of. All the rubbish from your skip is now processed and the larger part is recycled to help protect the environment.
Make sure the company you hire takes the skip waste to a registered waste transfer station, and check if the company has a waste carrier license.
Ensuring that your waste is disposed of correctly is your legal obligation.
Skip Hiring Prices in Sunderland
Some firms know people aren’t as informed about skip hire prices and may charge extortionate amounts. Therefore, it’s worth having a general idea about what you can expect to pay so you don’t get ripped off. Below are average prices for various skip sizes:
| Skip Size | No. of Bags | Average Cost |
|---|---|---|
| 4 Yard Midi Skip | 25-35 | £100 - £260 |
| 6 Yard Skip | 55-60 | From £120 |
| 8 Yard Skip | 80 | £160 - £370 |
| 10 Yard Skip | 100 | From £180 |
| 12 Yard Maxi Skip | 120 | £220 - £440 |
Aside from the skip size, there are other factors that can affect the price of hiring a skip:
- Skip hire time. Some companies allow an unlimited time period for you to fill the skip. However, the price they quote is likely to be more expensive to compensate. It may work out cheaper to choose a firm that has a one to two weeks hire period and only pay an extra fee if you go over the allocated time.
- Weight limitations. Skips need to have weight limits so that they can be transported safely or there could be potential fines. Some firms may allow heavy items to completely fill smaller skips (4-8 yard skips). However, larger skips (12 yards) may only allow a percentage of heavy items to fill the skip (e.g 40% heavy items, 60% light items). If you’re unsure, speak to a skip hire firm.
- Skip hire permits. If you can’t leave the skip on private land and need to use a public road, you’ll need to apply for a permit from the local government. These vary from region to region, but can vary from £10 – £70. Apply for a skip permit here.
You’ll also want to be aware when using a company that’s charging well below the rates above.
This is because very cheap services are more likely to run illicit operations like fly tipping and dump the waste illegally. The level of service you get will probably be poor too.
