Full Description
Our most compact skip for small jobs and tight spaces - the 4-yard skip handles 40-50 bin bags and fits almost anywhere. Perfect when you have limited space but still need proper waste removal.
Is This Right for Your Project?
Perfect if you're:
  • Doing a small bathroom or toilet refurbishment
  • Clearing out a small shed or understairs cupboard
  • Light garden tidy-up (20-30 wheelbarrow loads)
  • Small office clearance or shop refit
  • DIY projects with limited waste
Too small if you're:
  • Renovating an entire bathroom with lots of tiles (try 6-yard)
  • Clearing out a garage or loft (try 6-yard or 8-yard)
  • Any kitchen work (definitely need 8-yard minimum)
Most people underestimate their waste. If you're unsure between 4-yard and 6-yard, the 6-yard is safer and only slightly more.
What Actually Fits? Think 40-50 black bin bags or:
  • Small bathroom: Toilet, sink, small cabinet, some tiles, flooring
  • Garden tidy-up: 2 tonnes of soil, small hedge trimmings, old plants
  • Shed clearance: Garden tools, broken furniture, boxes, general junk
  • Small DIY: Old flooring and wood
  • Flat clearance: Unwanted flat-pack and wooden furniture, boxes, wardrobes, old tools, junk (upholstered chairs and mattresses need declaring), boxes, household items
Dimensions: Length: 1.83 m, Width: 1.22 m, Height: 0.91 m - our smallest skip
Weight limit: Up to 4 tonnes
Best for: Tight driveways, narrow access, small projects

Why Not Just Use Bin Bags? 4-yard skip: Delivered tomorrow, fill over 14 days, we collect 40+ bin bags to the tip: £20-40 fuel + multiple trips + heavy lifting Council collection: Limited to 3-4 items, 1-2 week wait, restricted items
The skip saves time and your back. Even for "small" jobs with 40+ bags.
4-Yard vs 6-Yard - Which Size?
Choose 4-yard if: Very small job, tight space, definitely under 50 bin bags Choose 6-yard if: Full bathroom, shed clearance, or any uncertainty about amount
Honest advice: Most people underestimate their waste by 30-40%. The 6-yard skip is only slightly more and you won't risk needing a second skip.

Manchester's smallest skip: the 4 yard

1.83 m long and 1.22 m wide, with room for about 40 to 50 bin bags. It is for one small job, not a whole project.

Ideal uses for a 4 yard skip in Manchester

  • Garden shed teardown: Old panels, shelves and whatever is inside. A large shed adds up to more than 4 yards.
  • Downstairs toilet refit: Pan, cistern, basin and wall tiles. See our bathroom refit guide.
  • Understairs and cupboard clear-out: Boxes, broken wooden shelving and old frames. Chairs and sofas are prohibited items, so check each piece before it goes in.
  • Hedge trimming: A season of clippings from a small garden. See our garden clearance guide.

Choosing the right size

Count the bags first: about 40 to 50 fits. If you are guessing, go to the 6 yard, because an overfilled skip can be refused at collection and charged for.

Weight

Up to 4 tonnes. That is what it can carry; the 4 yards is the space. Keep the load level with the top rim.

Placement and permits

On a public road or pavement, Manchester City Council issues the permit and you have to apply for it. On your own drive or land, tell us where it goes when you book. A skip on a driveway, grass or pavement is at your own risk.
