Skip sizes & prices

Hire the right size and pay only for what you need. All prices include VAT, delivery, the hire period and collection — no hidden charges. Prices shown are “from” (Zone 1); your exact price depends on postcode and waste type.

4 yard skip

4 yard
~30–40 bin bags · bathroom strip-out, small garden tidy
from £306
or £222 inert
6 yard skip

6 yard
~50–60 bin bags · kitchen refit, larger DIY
from £360
8 yard skip

8 yard
~60–80 bin bags · house clearance, builders’ waste
from £420
12 yard skip

12 yard
~100–120 bin bags · major renovation, large light waste
from £582

Pay less for single-material loads — an inert skip (soil, rubble, concrete only) starts from £222 inc VAT. Dedicated plasterboard and garden-waste skips are available too. Also available: mini skips for small jobs, and RoRo containers (20–40yd) for commercial sites.

Price Match Promise — found the same skip, for the same postcode, quoted cheaper elsewhere? We’ll match it. (Terms & conditions apply.)

Why we’re not the cheapest “from £” you’ll see — and why that’s a good thing: some skip ads quote a headline price that climbs once delivery, the permit, VAT or weight allowances are added. Ours is the price you actually pay: all-inclusive, fully licensed, 90%+ recycled. Honest pricing, no surprises on the invoice.

The Skip driver was very polite and humble. The agency delivered the Skip at the scheduled time and picked it up on time as well in Dorchester. I would recommend that others use The Waste Group services in the future.

First-class service. The quote was prompt and reasonable, and the skip was delivered and collected very promptly. The skip itself was fairly new and smart looking. Everyone was pleasant and helpful. The only potential downside is a tight deadline on how long the skip would be left.

Felt expensive but very reassuring that the service was first class and the skip delivered and collected on time. Recommend them to anyone with large amounts of hazardous waste to dispose of.

Where we cover

Based in Wareham, Dorset, we deliver skips right across our core South-coast area and an expanding network. Our heartland is Dorset — Bournemouth, Poole, Weymouth, Dorchester, Christchurch, Ferndown, Wareham, Wimborne, Blandford and Bridport — plus Hampshire, Wiltshire, Somerset, Devon, Berkshire, Surrey and South London. Every town has its own page with local pricing, a size guide and council permit info.

What can go in a skip?

Most household and trade waste is fine — wood, metal, furniture, packaging, garden waste, bricks and rubble (in an inert skip) and renovation waste. What can’t go in any skip: asbestos (see our licensed asbestos disposal), tyres, car batteries, fridges/freezers, hazardous waste, and plasterboard mixed with general waste. For the full list, see our most-read guide: what can and can’t go in a skip.

Do I need a skip permit?

On your own driveway or garden, no permit is needed. If the skip goes on a public road or pavement, your council requires a permit — and we apply for it on your behalf and add it to your invoice. No paperwork for you.

Domestic & trade skip hire

One-off house clearance or regular site waste — we handle both. Trade and commercial customers can open an account for priority booking and simpler admin. For high-volume sites, RoRo containers and grab hire can work out cheaper than skips.

Frequently asked questions

How much does skip hire cost?

Skip hire with The Waste Group starts from £222 inc VAT for a 4-yard inert skip and £306 for a 4-yard general-waste skip, up to £582 for a 12-yard — all inclusive of delivery, hire and collection. Your exact price depends on postcode and waste type. Get an instant quote.

How quickly can you deliver?

Same-day delivery if booked before 11am, or next-day — subject to availability.

What size skip do I need?

As a rough guide: a 4-yard suits a small garden or bathroom job; 6–8 yard covers most house clearances and renovations; and a 12-yard is best for large, light-waste jobs. Not sure? Use the size guide above, or request a callback.

Do you arrange skip permits?

Yes. On your own driveway or garden, no permit is needed. If the skip goes on a public road or pavement, we apply for the council permit on your behalf and add it to your invoice — no paperwork for you.

What can't go in a skip?

Asbestos, tyres, car batteries, fridges/freezers, hazardous waste and plasterboard mixed with general waste. See our full guide: what can and can’t go in a skip.
