Skip sizes in Waltham Cross
Mini skip hire in Waltham Cross (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 Waltham Cross (midi)
£120–£250. A domestic favourite; some Waltham Cross 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 Waltham Cross
£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 Waltham Cross (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, 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 Waltham Cross: what to know
Prices in Waltham Cross depend on skip size, hire length and where the skip will sit. A 4-yard midi covers a bathroom refit; a 6–8 yard builder's skip covers a full room or garden landscaping. If the skip goes on the road instead of a driveway, the council charges a permit fee — the skip firm normally arranges it. Check what's allowed in a skip before you book, then call two or three firms above for like-for-like quotes.
