Small but surprisingly spacious, the 2-yard skip is perfect for homeowners who need a quick and tidy solution for smaller jobs.
It’s compact enough to fit comfortably on most driveways, paths, or private land avoiding the need for a council permit in most areas, yet still holds up to 25+ bin bags of waste.
Whether you’re trimming back the garden, tackling a shed or garage clear-out, or handling light DIY materials like wood, soil and packaging, this skip offers a clean, convenient way to get rid of clutter without multiple trips to the tip.
