Midi Skips
Midi skips are often used to refer to skips between 3-6 yards. In comparison to builder skips, midi skips are a great deal smaller making them much cheaper to hire and easier to handle. Their compact size means that they can often be placed on the property.
Midi or mini skips are perfect for clear-outs of a single room or collect flags after garden renovation, as well as property clearance at the end of tenancy. They are similar in length and width to a 2-yard, only slightly bigger to fit more waste products.
Builders Skips
Whilst they are efficient for any project use, skips larger than 6 yards are commonly referred to as builders skips because more commercial clients favour them for offices, warehouses and retail property clear-outs.

What can Skips be used for?
Domestic Uses
Local skip hire is a fantastic choice for those households undergoing any house renovations. It is almost an essential waste collection and disposal solution to consider, especially for homes that may not have a family vehicle or one big enough to carry or tow any waste safely.
Suppose you're fitting a new bathroom or knocking down a wall; your home or outdoor spaces will accumulate lots of hefty debris, from bricks to slabs, tiles, etc. So that you do not leave large amounts of this waste lingering outside, creating health and safety hazards and an untidy kerb, a more prominent builder skip or appropriate sized is most suitable.
Paving and driveway installation is one of the most common uses of skip hire. During an installation, the process often requires removing previous slabs or flooring, and the waste can amount to quite a lot.
Our reliable team of professionals can provide skip hire for those installers to place the waste material so that the process can be more straightforward and much tidier.
Sometimes large heaps of unwanted waste such as fittings, old furniture, etc., are left unattended after a renovation, a clear-out, or the previous tenants after moving house.
Skips are an excellent resource you can hire to rid yourself of the garbage or waste materials, allowing you to dispose of them properly and give your area or kerb more appeal. Leighton Buzzard Skips has skips available that are perfect for those items you want rid of but don't want to recycle.
Cleaning gardens, no matter the size, can often leave you with a large amount of organic waste such a soil, spoiled or dead plants and several other materials. Skips can hold and dispose of all kinds of garden waste; they are even great for new flag installations to collect old flagging.
In the UK, it's more common for garden owners to opt for small affordable midi skips for more miniature garden clean up jobs.
Commercial Uses
Larger skips are much more suitable for construction projects, as the waste materials from these sites tend to be much more abundant and often heavier. Construction projects on sites such as warehouses, shopping centres, hospitals, schools and universities, garden centres and many more will require some form of skip hire to dispose of the materials appropriately and efficiently.
There are several types of demolition work that goes ahead on building projects and mass renovations. These types include interior demolition, wall removal, exterior demolition, dismantling, crane and wrecking ball. Demolitions of any kind are often messy business. They can accumulate and produce so much heavy waste that it would be difficult to remove without the help of a skip to quicken the process.
Skips are fit for premise refits and renovations, all the waste materials from renovating homes, such as floorboards, tiling, flagstones, old carpet, etc., can very easily be disposed of in a skip. Leighton Buzzard Skips in Bedfordshire offers our skips in many sizes for this purpose.
Any skip hire company knows that moving premises is a challenging task to take on, especially for big businesses. A way to quicken the process is by hiring a skip from our services at GSM. Big clear outs will smoothen the process, and skips are great essentials for appropriately disposing of waste materials.
What can't I put in a skip?
Amendments to the law made it so that you can no longer place plasterboards in skips, and they will not be collected. Therefore, you must dispose of them separately. Plasterboards emit a hazardous gas during their decomposition process, especially when surrounded by or mixed with other waste materials. Skip hire services will often provide you with unique bags for your plasterboard waste.
Items that you CANNOT place in a skip include:
- Batteries/Electronics (inc. fridges, freezers)
- Chemicals
- Medical items
- Gas Cylinders
- Tyres
- Asbestos
- Plasterboards
