They are designed to be lifted by special trucks having heavier and bulkier loads without much hassle, making them perfect for big commercial establishments or large projects where a tonne of materials need disposal and transport.

On the other hand, standard skip bins are perfect for waste that can be compacted or compressed, such as general household or office waste. They are suitable for smaller projects, like bathroom or kitchen renovations, garden cleanups, or when moving house.

The Right Skip Bin for the Job

Firstly, it's important to know that we offer two types of skip bins: standard skip bins and hook lift bins. Standard skip bins have sloping walls, while hook bins have straight walls. One benefit of straight walls is that you can easily stack piles of old sheet or other material without the worry of inclined walls. Hook lift bins are ideal for the removal of large waste volumes and where there are no access issues to the site.

Hook Lift Bins Vs. Regular Skip Bins

Hook Lift Bins

Hook lift trucks are used to retrieve hook bins, which are then loaded and unloaded by the driver using a hydraulic hook. Compared to other types of skip bins, hook lift skip bins are larger and capable of carrying significantly heavier loads. This type of skip bin is ideal for large projects that require the disposal and transport of a significant amount of materials.

Skip Bins

Skip bins typically have greater height and shorter length than hook lift skips. As a result, they generally require no more space than a car parking spot to be placed. These bins can be easily transported between locations using specialised skip trucks. They are constructed using robust steel material, making them ideal for disposing of heavy waste. Although residential customers mostly favour these bins for smaller household or DIY project or Spring Cleans, they are available to everyone. They are available in various sizes, including 2, 3, and 4 cubic metres.

Choosing the Right Bin

Residential Projects:

What is the best skip bin size for bathroom renovations?

When it comes to bathroom renovations, it's important to choose the right skip bin size to accommodate the waste generated from the job. Typically, bathrooms are smaller rooms, so a 3 or 4 cubic metre skip bin should be sufficient to hold old cabinets, tiles, shower screens, sinks, fittings, and other bulky items.
What is the best skip bin size for kitchen renovations?

The best skip bin size for kitchen renovations largely depends on the size of your kitchen and the number of appliances you have. For a small kitchen with just a few appliances, a 4 cubic metre skip bin should suffice. However, if you have a larger kitchen with an oven, stovetop, dishwasher, and plenty of tiles, a 6 cubic metre skip bin may be the better option.
What is the best skip bin size for moving house?

Moving house can generate a lot of waste, and the skip bin size you choose should reflect the amount and size of items you plan to discard. For general waste, a 2-4 cubic metre skip bin may be suitable. However, if you're getting rid of larger items like furniture, white goods, or exercise equipment, it's best to choose a larger skip bin in the 8-12 cubic metre range.
What is the best skip bin size for garden cleanups?

Garden clean-ups can involve removing large branches, bushes, and other bulky items that may not compact easily. To accommodate larger objects that can't be further broken down, it's recommended to choose a skip bin that's at least 6 cubic metres in size.

Commercial Projects

Best Skip Bin Size for Commercial Projects

Commercial projects, such as large home builds, renovations, or any large-scale construction or re-fit, require a different approach when it comes to skip bin sizes. When working on these types of projects, you need a skip bin that is not only large enough to handle the volume of waste but is also heavy-duty and durable enough to handle the weight and density of the materials.

For large commercial projects, the best skip bin sizes to choose from are typically in the 10-30 cubic metre range. These sizes allow for larger amounts of waste and provide a more cost-effective option than having to order multiple smaller skip bins. Additionally, these skip bins are designed to be lifted by hook lift trucks, making the loading and unloading process faster and more efficient.

It’s important to consider the type of waste that will be generated during the commercial project. For example, if you’re working on a construction site, you may need to dispose of large amounts of concrete, bricks, and other heavy-duty materials. In this case, you would need a skip bin that can handle the weight and size of these materials, such as a 20-30 cubic metre hook lift skip bin.

When choosing the right skip bin size for your commercial project, it’s also important to consider the location where the skip bin will be placed. Large commercial projects may require a permit for skip bin placement, and it’s important to ensure that the skip bin is placed in a location that allows for easy loading and unloading.

In summary, for commercial projects such as large home builds, renovations, or any large-scale construction or re-fit, it’s recommended to choose larger and more heavy-duty hook lift skip bins in the 10-30 cubic metre range. These skip bins are designed to handle the volume and weight of materials generated during these types of projects, and the hook lift trucks make loading and unloading more efficient.

Do you have any final advice when choosing skip bin sizes?

When in doubt, choose a slightly larger skip bin than you think you'll need to avoid overloading it and needing to order a second one. It's also important to measure everything before hiring a skip bin, including the spot where you plan to place it, to ensure it fits properly and avoid any surprises upon delivery.
