AS YOU CAN TELL BY THE NAME, MINI SKIPS ARE SMALL. MEASURING IN AT 2.5 CUBIC YARDS OF CAPACITY, THEY’RE THE SAME SHAPE AS THEIR BIGGER COUSINS, JUST ON A MUCH SMALLER SCALE!

BUT IF THEY’RE SO SMALL, HOW CAN THEY POSSIBLY BE USEFUL?

SOME JOBS ARE JUST RIGHT FOR A MINI SKIP!

There’s a surprising number of jobs that suit mini skip hire perfectly – both domestic and commercial.

One of the most common commercial applications for a mini skip is for the disposal of plasterboard, which can’t be mixed with other kinds of waste.

Contractors will hire a mini skip as a secondary option for disposing of drywall and keeping it separate from other materials for easier processing. A secondary mini skip is sometimes used to clear up general waste produced on site and for a final cleanup once a job is completed.

SO WHY ARE MINI SKIPS POPULAR FOR DOMESTIC PROJECTS?

Domestic skip hire customers love mini skips! Because they’re usually just the right size for a small DIY job. Also, their low height makes them very easy to fill with little more than a wheelbarrow for assistance. Plus, the small footprint of mini skips means they’ll fit on most driveways with plenty of room left over to park a car.

As an added bonus, they’re more cost effective to hire than a full size skip, making them a very attractive proposition indeed.

Garden clearances, bathroom refurbishment and even a small kitchen renovation could all be completed with a mini skip.
And even though 2.5 cubic yards doesn’t sound like a lot, you’d be surprised at what you can fit in there.

MINI SKIP – WHAT CAN YOU FIT INSIDE?

Mini skips are deceptively big and you’ll be able to get a lot in there. A bit like Mary Poppins bag!!

As an example, think about your bath at home and how much that can hold; a mini skip can hold around twelve times as much. In fact, you can fit around two and a half tons of packed rubble into a mini skip – pretty impressive for the smallest skip in our fleet!
