Skip sizes in Epsom

Mini skip hire in Epsom (2–3 yards)

£85–£170. Sometimes sold as a 2-tonne skip. Fits on most driveways and takes roughly 20–35 bin bags — right for a small bathroom refit or garden tidy. Full details on this size.

4 yard skip hire in Epsom (midi)

£120–£250. A domestic favourite; some Epsom firms list it as a 4-tonne or midi skip. Takes about 30–40 bin bags — a bathroom, small kitchen or decluttering a couple of rooms. Full details on this size.

6–8 yard builder's skip hire in Epsom

£180–£330. The standard builder's skip. Handles a full kitchen rip-out, a room renovation including some rubble, or serious garden landscaping. If in doubt between two sizes, take this one — a second skip costs far more than the next size up. Full details on this size.

10–12 yard skip hire in Epsom (large)

£280–£470. For house clearances and bulky-but-light waste (furniture, wood, packaging). Most firms won't take heavy rubble or soil in a 12 yard skip — weight limits apply. Full details on this size.

14–40 yard RoRo skip hire in Epsom

14, 16, 20 and 40 yard roll-on roll-off containers are for commercial sites and full strip-outs, priced per job. The larger firms listed above quote these on request — mention access and what's going in. Full RoRo guide.

Hiring a skip in Epsom: what to know

Epsom's skip firms cover the wider Epsom and Ewell area and the towns along the A24 and the North Downs — Ewell, Ashtead, Leatherhead, Banstead and Tadworth all fall within reach of local operators, so a firm a couple of miles out will still quote for an Epsom job (checked August 2026). Being on the London fringe, about 14 miles from the centre, Epsom sits in the pricier South East market, so getting two or three quotes pays off.

The on-road permit in Epsom comes from Surrey County Council, the highways authority, rather than Epsom & Ewell Borough Council. A licence costs £139 for up to 28 days, with renewals for a further 28 days also £139 (checked August 2026), and only skip companies registered with Surrey County Council can apply — residents can't, so you'll need to hire from a Surrey-registered firm for any on-road placement. Surrey says it issues a licence within two working days of a complete application, which is the practical lead time to plan around.

No licence is needed if the skip stays on a driveway or front garden, so keeping it off the road avoids the £139 fee entirely (checked August 2026). For smaller loads, the Epsom Community Recycling Centre on Blenheim Road takes household waste — though it's closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and a van, pickup or trailer needs Surrey's annual £10 waste permit to get in.
