What size skip bin do I need? 3 skip bin sizes

At Just Skips, we offer 3 different skip bin sizes – these range from mini skips to 9mbins. And while all skip bins are multitaskers, we’ve broken down which bin suits the most common jobs down below.

4mbin

Planning a small clean up? Moving house? Renovating your bathroom? A 4mbin is what you need. Able to comfortably fit in your backyard or driveway, this bin roughly equals 25 wheelie bins. This makes it ideal for small waste management projects.

If you’re wondering “what size skip bin do I need for green waste?”, and your backyard is on the smaller size, the answer is a 4mbin. These mini skips are also great for small bathroom renovations, general clear outs and getting rid of your household junk.

6mbin

Equal to 40 wheelie bins, the 6mbin is perfect for a number of projects. If you’re in the middle of a kitchen renovation and have cabinets, benchtops, a dining table, floor tiles and more to get rid of, this skip size is your go-to. We also recommend the 6mbin for larger garden cleanups, especially if you’re landscaping and have big branches to throw away.

9mbin

Got a big clean up job ahead of you or need construction waste removal? The 9mbin is exactly what you need. Standing at 1.5m tall and 4.5m long, and able to take 60 wheelie bins worth of rubbish, this skip bin is ideal for any mammoth-sized job.

We recommend the 9mbin for renovations, builders and decluttering large family homes.
