3M Skip Bin
The smallest size of skip bin that we offer, this is perfect for a home clear out, garden waste, a couple of pieces of furniture or similar.

4M Skip Bin
Perfect for holding the waste from a domestic construction project, this is a popular choice with builders, kitchen fitters and similar. This skip is big enough to accommodate the waste materials from an entire room (for example a fitted kitchen) or a large-scale garden clearance.

L320cm |
W150cm |
H95cm with door |
6M Skip Bin
This size of skip will hold around eighty bin bags of rubbish! This size skip is normally used for larger construction projects. If you’re getting an extension built, or having a major remodel, this skip should be adequate for all your waste material. It’s also about the right size for clearing a one- or two-bed apartment.

W150cm |
H125cm with door |
8M Skip Bin
If you’re an office that wants to skip waste material over a period of time, this size skip could be right for you. Ideal for larger amounts of lighter waste, this skip can hold waste material from a larger home improvement project, or the contents of a small home if you need to complete a house clearance.
| Size | Length | Width | Height |
|
8m3 |
L400cm |
W150cm |
H150cm with door |
9M Skip Bin
This size skip fulfils much the same sort of function as the eight cubic metre skip: usually reserved for longer-term waste collection, or for larger projects. The additional room enables bulky, awkwardly shaped objects to be stowed, as well as smaller items of waste in high volumes.

12M Skip Bin
An absolute beast of a skip, the 12m cubic capacity skip is the largest size that we offer. Perfect for full house clearances or for taking away the waste from a whole-house renovation, this skip has a capacity that’s three times that of the more commonly used 4m cubic capacity skip.

Getting a skip that’s too big could mean you’re paying for something you don’t need – ask us which skip is going to be right for your project and we’ll be happy to advise, based on your individual requirements.
Skip sizes do have weight limits
Although the weight limits for our skips are high, if you’re going to be filling a skip with extremely heavy items or materials, please get in touch so that we can work out a suitable solution that meets your needs. Similarly, if you are likely to be discarding hazardous materials (asbestos, chemicals etc), don’t use a skip – ask us for advice.
Skip bins for household and garden waste
If you are decluttering your home and need to get rid of all the junk in your attic, a 3m skip bin might be the perfect size for you. It’s the smallest size we offer and can take garden waste, boxes or a number of bin bags. On the other hand, if you’re moving house and need to dispose of a lot more furniture, books and clothes as well as garden waste – then a 4m skip bin would be best. We collect and dispose of all kinds of waste, so you don’t have to worry about sorting or organising your junk!
Building waste and construction projects
Skip bins are essential for all kinds of construction projects, and at Brisbane Skip Bin Hire we provide skip bin hire and removal services for numerous local contractors. We have a range of skip bin sizes, including extra-large 6m, 8m, 9m and 12m bins which we can drop off and collect or replace with another empty skip to fill! We can also offer heavy duty skip bins for larger projects such as major remodels, kitchen renovations and house clearances. If you have bulky or unusual items, like office furniture or kitchen worktops one of our larger 8m or 9m skip bins might be best. These larger skip bins are ideal for long term projects and we can drop off and collect at a time that works for you.
Extra-large skip bins to hire
If you’re looking for a larger skip bin than the standard offering, our 12m extra large skip bins are available to hire at an affordable rate. These skip bins have a huge capacity and are a popular choice with renovators and industrial customers. Our largest skip bin is 12m and can take a full house clearance or we can also provide a long term waste collection service for a large industrial space.
