Leyland Skips specialise in affordable skip hire in all areas across the northwest, including Chorley, and supply a range of domestic skips that are ideal for various DIY projects. If it’s your first time hiring a skip, why not let the experts at Leyland Skips help?

Here’s a guide to help you select the right domestic skip:

2yd mini skips

For projects in Chorley that generate too much rubbish to fit in the wheelie bin, or too much to fit in the boot of your car, a mini skip comes in extremely useful.

The 2yd mini skips eliminate the need for tedious trips to the local tip and effectively save you time and effort. As well as allowing you to complete your project faster, hiring a mini skip makes disposal more convenient and saves you money on petrol.

In terms of storage, the 2yd mini skips are surprisingly spacious and can fit 20-30 bin bags, 4 wheelie bins and 1 sofa.

4yd midi skips

Renovation projects benefit from small domestic skips like the 4yd midi skips. These are twice the size as mini skips but are best suited to projects that generate a small to moderate amount of waste.

If you’re looking to remove heavy materials, the 4yd midi skip is ideal as it’s designed to accommodate large, bulky items that can take up too much space on your driveway – making your property look cluttered.

The midi skips provided for skip hire Chorley are perfect for 30-40 bin bags, 8 wheelie bins and 2 sofas.

8yd maxi skips

The 8yd maxi skips, sometimes called ‘builder’s skips’, are often the most common skip size for projects in and around Chorley. One of the main reasons for this is that they incorporate a drop door.

The drop door maxi skips are perfect for garden and construction projects that produce immense volumes of soil, rubble, sand and other sharp or messy materials. Having drop doors, the 8yd maxi skip is ideal for keeping mess to a minimum as you don’t need to lift waste over the sides of the skip.

So, if your project is likely to produce the equivalent to 60-80 bin bags of waste, 16 wheelie bins and 4 sofas, a maxi skip could be exactly what you need.

12yd open skips

Open skips allow you to dispose of materials quickly and easily – speeding up the process of rubbish removal.

Leyland Skips supply the open skips for large-scale projects that will inevitably produce huge volumes of waste. The 12yd open skip will enable you to dispose of more materials without needing to hire a new skip.

The 12yd skips for skip hire Chorley are great for 100-120 bin bags, 24 wheelie bins and 6 sofas but these must be light materials, otherwise, it will be dangerous for the fleet driver to lift onto the back of the loading vehicle.

16yd open skips

If you need something bigger than the 12yd open skips, Leyland Skips’ 16yd open skip is ideal. Also designed for larger domestic projects, it provides a more convenient alternative for disposing of waste and prevents it from building up on site.

The 16yd open skip is incredibly spacious and allows you to fit 140-160 bin bags of rubbish, 48 wheelie bins and 8 sofas.
