At The DP Group, we really emphasise responsible skip-filling, it helps us, and our drivers to ensure safety and avoid additional costs when its time to . If a skip is overfilled and poses a transportation hazard, we cannot collect it.

To help you clearly see the fill level, each of our skips are clearly marked either inside or outside.

We strongly recommend a strategic (like a game) approach to filling your skip! Begin by placing flat items first, followed by large, heavy, or bulky items. For bin bags filled with rubbish, compress them to remove any air and crush larger items to maximise space without exceeding the skip’s capacity – it’s about getting the most out of your skip hire!

To assist you in selecting the appropriate skip size for your project, each skip page provides an estimate of the number of bin bags it can accommodate – with an illustration too. Keep in mind that the capacity may vary depending on the size and weight of the items. If you require guidance in choosing the right skip size, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
