A 10 yard skip is a large open skip suited to bulky, relatively lightweight waste from house clearances, office and retail clear-outs, refurbishment work and similar projects.
It holds approximately 80 to 100 standard bin bags and provides around 7.65m³ of capacity, giving you more room than an 8 yard skip where volume rather than heavy weight is the main consideration.
A 10 yard skip is not normally suitable for a full load of soil, rubble, bricks or concrete. If dense waste will make up a significant part of the load, contact us before booking.
SIZE & CAPACITY
COMMON PROJECTS
A 10 yard skip commonly used for larger household clearances, office and retail clear-outs, refurbishment work and bulky packaging or timber waste.
A 10 yard skip can suit larger clearances involving several rooms or a full property, particularly where the waste includes dismantled furniture, cupboards, bed frames, boxes and general household items.
Tell us before booking if the load includes mattresses, upholstered furniture, electrical appliances or other items that may need separate handling.
Mattresses and upholstered seating must be declared before booking because separate handling or additional charges may apply.
This size can work well for approved waste from office moves, shop refits and commercial clearances.
Suitable materials may include desks, shelving, filing cabinets, archive boxes, packaging and non-upholstered furniture.
Electrical equipment, upholstered seating and specialist commercial waste should be confirmed before booking.
Designed for high-volume, low-weight materials including large cardboard boxes, timber offcuts, plastic sheeting, crates, foam, and bulky commercial packaging materials.
A 10 yard skip may also suit bulky garden or property-maintenance waste such as branches, hedge cuttings, fence panels, timber and dismantled garden structures.
Large amounts of soil, rubble, paving or other dense materials should be discussed before booking.
This size is best suited to bulky, relatively lighter materials rather than full loads of dense waste.
If you are unsure about an item, check the full waste guide or contact the team before loading it. Read the full skip waste rules or ask the team before loading it.
HEAVY WASTE
ⓘ A 10 yard skip is not normally suitable for a full load of soil, rubble, bricks, hardcore, clay or concrete.
These materials are dense and can make the skip too heavy to lift safely before the available space has been used.
If the load will contain a significant amount of heavy material, tell us what you are disposing of and roughly how much before booking.
A smaller skip or a different waste arrangement may be more suitable for a dense load.
