Sometimes, even seasoned skip driver pros can make a wrong move – in this case, driving the skip truck and a builder skip in to a smelly cess pit. I don’t fancy the cleaning job at the end of the day, but luckily help was on hand to rescue the load!

Need skip hire to throw away bulky furniture

This is a question we received from a puzzled customer in Harrow, Middlesex today.

Question: What size skip do I need to throw away a single bed?

Answer: First thing’s first, just remember to make sure there’s nobody sleeping in the bed before you throw it in the skip! Although skips come in all different shapes and skip sizes, the answer is pretty simple – anything over a 4 cu yd skip will safely contain a single bed. The 4 cu yd skip is 6 ft long, from the widest part at the top, so this may be a bit too small for your job. A 6 cu yd builder skip and above will be ideal for any household furniture including beds, wardrobes and cupboards. Always ask about the dimensions of a skip when you are making an enquiry.

However, rather than worrying about whether you’re making the best choice, just ring up the thoroughly knowledgeable people at Topskips and let them help you through the booking process – ring 0844 560 7710 for friendly, skip-related advice. And if you’re thinking of hiring a skip out of office hours, just book online. Easy peasy!
