Our 4-yard skip is also called a midi skip. It’s an ideal choice when you need a compact, low-cost container for small DIY jobs, light clear-outs and garden waste.
It fits in most driveways and is easy to load without needing a permit in most cases if it’s off the road.
Your booking covers, skip delivery, collection, permit handling (if needed), full waste disposal (with compliance) and recycling.
“Skip hire prices vary depending on several factors: Location, Rental Duration, Skip Size, Waste Type, Permits and Licenses, Delivery and Collection.”
Do not fill waste above the sides of the skip. If it’s overflowing, the driver can legally refuse skip collection.
If you’re mainly getting rid of heavy building waste, you may be better off with an 8 yard builders skip.
Recent bookings show small household loads often start in the low £200s, but prices vary by area and local availability. Get an exact live quote for your postcode. To know the exact cost, use our online booking tool.
We offer a standard hire period of 14 days. If you need to extend, extensions are available over the phone for £30 per day.
Most people place a 4 yard skip on their driveway, which roughly needs a 3m width and clear overhead access so the lorry can safely lower it.
Yes, you can cancel your booking at any time. However, a £30 + VAT cancellation fee applies once your order has been processed.
A 4 yard skip is ideal for:
It’s a good size for bathroom rip-outs, small kitchen refreshes, end-of-tenancy clean-ups and clearing one room at a time.
Some items can’t legally go in a general skip:
Bulky items like mattresses or upholstered furniture may be allowed, but may carry an extra surcharge. Ask before loading so you’re not charged later.
Placing a skip on private land (your driveway), no permit needed. If you’re placing your skip on a public road, pavement, or council-owned land, a skip hire permit is legally required, but our experts will handle all the paperwork for you.
When booking, simply select where you’d like the skip placed. The fee will be automatically added if a permit is needed.
Permit Fees:
A 7-day permit ranges from £30 to £50, while a 14-day permit costs around £95 or more.
Provide flexible delivery windows from 8:00 AM–11:00 AM, 11:00 AM–2:00 PM, and 2:00 PM–5:00 PM.
We aim for next-business-day delivery when you order before 2 pm in most areas. For same-day delivery, place your order before 10 am or early morning
