General Waste
If you’ve got general waste for disposal after a spring clean we’ve got a light waste bin for you. At Skip Bins Online we’re committed to the responsible disposal of waste so it’s important that you only place specific items in your hire skip.
A General Waste bin has a weight limit of 150kgs per cubic meter, suitable for most light domestic or commercial waste; it can also contain light green waste.
Not suitable for heavy waste such as tree trunks/roots, concrete, brick, roof tiles, aggregates, sand, dirt, soil or building/renovation waste you will exceed the weight limit. If you have this type of waste please select either Mixed Heavy Waste or Mixed Waste with Soil
