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

Need a Permit?

On the road: We arrange the permit for you
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.

Do you need a permit for a 4-yard skip in Sheffield?
Even a 4-yard skip takes up kerb space, so where it goes matters more than how big it is.
On a drive or private land? Sheffield City Council's permit applies to skips on a highway. Anywhere else the placement is at your own risk, so pick a spot that can take the weight.
On any Sheffield highway? You need a permit. The council says a permit is needed to place a skip on any highway in the city. Tell us when you book so the permit can be sorted before delivery.
Sheffield permit basics
- Each permit is for one skip, one location and one period, and carries its own reference code. The council charges a fee, and permit fees are non-refundable.
- A permit runs for 15 days at most, and an extension can add another 15.
- Sheffield does not use automatic consent. The skip cannot go on the road until the permit has actually been issued.
What the council can require
- On yellow lines or where a traffic regulation order applies, the council's parking team has to grant a special dispensation first.
- Conditions can cover where the skip sits, its size, visibility to oncoming traffic, lighting at night and signing and guarding.
Before you book
- Give us the exact spot and any access restrictions when you book.
- Keep the load level with the top rim, without boards, and check our prohibited items list first.
