Choosing the Right Household Waste Skip Bin Size
Picking the right household waste skip bin size is easy if you know the volume and type of waste you’re getting rid of. For smaller clean-up jobs like light spring cleaning or wrapping up a small DIY project, bins in the 2m³–4m³ should suffice since they are designed to handle lighter loads.
For larger clean-up needs such as disposing of furniture or collecting rubbish from major home renovations, larger bins around 6m³–10m³ are necessary. These bins will allow you to load all your waste in one go, with no need for multiple bins.
