8 Yard Skip Hire
Large skip from €380 inc VAT in Meath, Cavan and Mullingar
The 8 yard skip, or large skip, has the same footprint as a 6 yard but higher sides, so it holds around 70–80 bin bags. It is ideal for full house clearances and heavy materials. Prices start at €380 inc VAT with delivery and collection included.
8 Yard Skip Hire Prices and Sizes
Because it has the same footprint as the 6 yard skip, the 8 yard fits the same driveway space but takes slightly more: around 70–80 bin bags or 31 wheelbarrow loads. It is a generous size for household clearances and also suits heavy materials such as earth, concrete, bricks and paving slabs.
When you book, choose Bulky Domestic for household and garden waste or Construction Waste for rubble, bricks and concrete.
