Match the skip to a clear-out or a renovation
A garage full of empty boxes needs space; a small pile of tiles or rubble needs a careful weight allowance. For a Dunblane renovation, list the materials separately before deciding between a 4, 6 or 8 yard skip. The bigger size is not always the right choice for heavy waste.
| Size | Typical use | Approx. L × W × H |
|---|---|---|
| 2 yard | Small clear-outs & garden jobs | 1.5m × 1.2m × 0.9m |
| 4 yard | Room clear-outs & bathroom refits | 2.1m × 1.5m × 0.9m |
| 6 yard | Renovations & bigger DIY jobs | 3.0m × 1.5m × 1.2m |
| 8 yard | Building work & bulky clear-outs | 3.6m × 1.8m × 1.4m |
| 14 yard | Bulky, lighter clear-out waste | 4.27m × 2.0m × 1.83m |
| 20 yard | Larger premises & site clear-outs | 5.59m × 2.65m × 1.17m |
| 40 yard | Large volumes of light waste | 6.0m × 2.4m × 2.68m |
For clearing a few stored household items, start with the 2 and 4 yard options. A larger house clear-out may justify 14 yards or a roll-on/off container if the rubbish is light and the vehicle can reach it. We help narrow the choice from the items you describe.
Measurements vary between skips. The lorry needs extra room, and bag or volume estimates do not set a weight allowance.

Town-centre access or a private driveway?
Dunblane’s historic centre includes a conservation area. A High Street address and a home with its own driveway need different delivery planning. Explain where the skip will stand and the route the lorry would use, including any slope, turning space or narrow entrance at your property.
- Describe the surfaceTell us about paving, gravel or a sloping position before agreeing placement.
- Keep shared space clearA neighbour’s parking or a shared entrance must remain usable.
- Arrange the upliftCall when the skip is ready and leave the same approach available for collection.

Stirling Council skip guidanceBook around the work you actually have planned
Tell us whether you are stripping a room in one go or producing waste in stages. Standard hire is up to seven days unless another period is agreed. The size, contents, delivery address and any road arrangements affect the full price; confirm the total including VAT.
We deliver to the agreed position. You fill the skip, then call to arrange collection.
Separate heavy material from bulky household waste
Old shelving and cardboard can take up a lot of room without much weight. Broken masonry is the opposite. Keeping a rough list of both helps us agree a sensible skip and loading arrangement for the job.
- Unwanted wood and agreed household clutter
- Packaging from replacement fixtures or furniture
- Rubble, soil or tiles only when the load is agreed
For work upstairs, plan how the waste will reach the skip. The hire is for a container you fill yourself. Keep plasterboard and electrical items out of the ordinary mixed load and tell us about them while arranging the job.
Keep asbestos, paint, oils, fuels, batteries, gas cylinders and electrical items out of a general waste skip. Agree plasterboard, mattresses and carpets separately.

Will a 14 yard skip suit a whole-house clearance?
It may suit a bulky, lighter load, but the items and access decide. It is not suitable for treating a whole renovation’s rubble as unrestricted mixed waste. Describe both the furniture and building materials first.
Can a skip go on a sloping drive?
Tell us about the slope before booking. The surface and the lorry’s safe working position need to be checked; we cannot promise placement from the skip dimensions alone.
Does skip hire include carrying waste downstairs?
You or your contractors load a hired skip. Keep the carrying route safe and allow for the lifting involved. Rubbish removal is a separate service, rather than labour included with the skip.
