Components to Consider When Choosing a Skip Bins
- Volume of Waste: Estimate the amount of waste you will produce. Choose a size that will fit easily without having to put the waste in a box, which will cost more.
- Project Scale: Compare the size of the hole to the size of the project. Small repairs require a different demolition site than a large construction site.
- Type of Waste: Different types of waste have different properties. Heavier materials like bricks and stones take up more space than lighter materials like green waste.
- Available Space: Make sure there is enough space for the bin. Larger bins require more space for placement and access.
- Budget: Larger bins can hold more trash, but keep your budget in mind. It’s important to choose the right size for your needs without straining your budget.

- Choosing a Bin That’s Too Small: Estimating the cost of waste may result in a lack of space, the need for additional packaging, and increased costs.
- Opting for a Bin That’s Too Large: Overestimating your needs can lead to you paying for unused space and potential storage issues.
