Whether you’re replacing a kitchen, clearing a garage, or managing building waste, this skip offers the perfect balance between size and practicality.

The Original Builders Skip

Our 6 Yard Skips

The 6-yard skip, commonly known as the “builder’s skip”, is also referred to in the trade as the “small builder’s skip”, “maxi skip”, or simply the classic “6 yarder”. The term “yarder” is widely used across different skip sizes and is familiar to both homeowners and contractors.

This size is one of the most popular choices for waste removal and is especially common on building sites, second only to the 8-yard skip. Its versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of jobs — from small house renovations and extensions to commercial refurbishments and clearances.

A 6-yard skip can hold a variety of waste materials, including bulky household or office items like sofas, armchairs, desks, kitchen units, as well as garden waste, soil, and rubble. It’s a great all-rounder for handling general waste, making it ideal for both residential and commercial use.

If you’re not sure whether this is the right size for your project, our team is happy to help.
