Cheap skip hire in Gravesend is not always about choosing the smallest skip. The most cost-effective option is usually the skip that matches your waste volume, placement, access, and material type. Choosing a skip that is too small can lead to overfilling, collection issues, or needing a second skip. To keep costs sensible, choose the right skip size from our fleet.
Before booking, check how much space you have for delivery, whether the lorry can access the property safely, and whether the skip will need to go on a public road. If you are not sure which size to choose, contact the team and we can help you avoid paying for the wrong skip.
Capacity: Holds 30 to 40 standard black bin bags easily.
A 4 yard skip is suitable for smaller clear-outs, garden waste, bathroom refits, and light DIY waste. It is a good choice when space is limited or when you only have a modest amount of rubbish to remove.
Note: Avoid loading heavy soil or rubble beyond guidance
Capacity: Holds 50 to 60 standard black bin bags.
A 6 yard skip is one of the most popular choices for household and building waste. It is commonly used for kitchen renovations, small construction jobs, garage clear-outs, and mixed domestic waste.
Capacity: Handle 60 to 80 black bin bags
An 8 yard skip is a strong option for larger home improvement projects, bulky waste, and builder’s waste. It offers more capacity while still being suitable for many residential and trade jobs.
Capacity: Handle 80 to 100 black bin bags
A 10 yard skip is useful for larger clearances, shop refits, office clear-outs, and non-heavy bulky waste. It gives you extra space when a smaller skip may not be enough.
Capacity: Holds 100 to 120 bin bags
A 12 yard skip is best for larger volumes of light, bulky waste. It is often used for bigger property clearances, commercial waste, and renovation projects where more capacity is needed.
For large commercial jobs, construction projects, and high-volume waste, we can arrange 20 and 40 yard RoRo skips by phone. If you are not sure whether you need a standard skip or RoRo skip, call our team and we’ll help you choose the right option.

The best skip size depends on your waste volume, material type, available space, and whether the skip will sit on private land or a public road. If you are unsure, it is usually better to choose a slightly larger skip than to overfill a smaller one.
You only need a skip permit in Gravesend if your skip will be placed on a public road, highway, or public parking area. If the skip can sit fully on private property, such as a driveway, a permit is usually not required.
If you need a skip permit, please call our team before booking. We’ll discuss the current council permit price with you, confirm the placement details, and apply for the permit on your behalf. This helps avoid delays, extra charges, or issues with placing the skip in the wrong location.
Permit requirements can depend on where the skip will sit, how long it is needed, and whether safety equipment such as lights, cones, or markings is required. If you are unsure, speak to our team before placing your order and we’ll guide you through the next step.
Skip Hire Team is rated by customers across our service areas for clear communication, reliable delivery, fair pricing, and helpful collection support.
Most general household, garden, renovation, and building waste can go in a skip.
If you have heavy waste, electrical items, plasterboard, mattresses, paint, chemicals, or anything you are unsure about, contact the team before booking. This helps us confirm whether the skip is suitable or whether another disposal option is needed.
We’ll help you avoid rejected waste, extra charges, or collection delays.
Where you place the skip matters. If the skip can fit fully on private land, the booking is usually simpler because a council permit is normally not required. If the skip needs to go on a road or public highway, the permit must be arranged before delivery.
Private land may include a driveway, private yard, private car park, building site, or land controlled by the property owner. You should still make sure there is enough space for delivery and collection.
A public road, pavement, grass verge, or public parking bay usually requires a skip permit. Call our team before booking so we can check the placement, discuss council pricing, and apply for the permit where needed.
If you live in a flat, managed building, or property with shared access, check with the building manager, landlord, or management company before booking. You may need permission for skip placement, delivery access, or parking arrangements.
If your property has no driveway, the skip may need to sit on the road. In this case, permit approval, parking rules, and safe lorry access need to be checked before delivery.
If your property is near a busy road, school area, town centre street, or restricted parking zone, speak with the team before booking. This helps avoid failed delivery, access problems, or permit delays.
We’ve covered the most frequently asked questions from skip sizes and costs to permits and what you can (and can’t) throw away.
