Compare how much they hold.
A cubic yard describes volume, not the weight you can put in a skip. Heavy waste can reach a weight limit before the skip looks full.

| 4 yard | 3.1 m³ | 2.7 m | 1.6 m | 0.9 m | Room clear-outs, bathroom refits and smaller garden jobs. |
| 8 yard | 6.1 m³ | 3.45 m | 1.75 m | 1.2 m | Renovation waste, larger clear-outs and building work. |

Bulky waste needs space.
Old cupboards, timber and packaging fill a skip differently from loose material. Break down suitable items safely and tell us about anything long or awkward.
A 14-yard skip is intended for light, bulky waste. A large container is not permission to fill it with soil or rubble.
Heavy waste needs a limit.
Soil, bricks, concrete and tiles are heavy. Tell us about these when you call so we can agree a suitable size and how much you can load.
Before delivery, check gate width, ground conditions, overhead cables and the lorry’s approach. The skip’s footprint is only part of the space needed.
