The 6-Yard Skip, also known as “Small Builders Skip”, is a popular choice for medium sized jobs. Commonly found on construction sites. Great for gardening jobs and general waste clear outs.

A 6-yard yard skip is the smallest skip hire available. The dimensions of the skip are:

A 6-yard skip holds 6 cubic yards of rubbish. It can hold 60 black bin bags full of waste. It doesn't have a large volume so only for small amounts of waste materials.
You can put this skip size on a public road, but you will require a road permit from your local council. These council permits can be applied for when you order through JustHire. A skip hire council permit can take up to 5 working days and will be an extra charge. Permits are required for skip placement on any council land.
Our hiring period is 2-weeks as standard. If your hiring needs exceed this time frame you can pay for extra weeks.
