You can hire our skips in Belfast for up to 2 weeks as standard. If you need a shorter or longer hire period, just let us know when booking, and we will arrange a timeframe that suits your project. Call us on 02892 791 623 to discuss your requirements.
For domestic projects, the largest skip we offer is a 16-yard skip, suitable for large clearances and bulky waste, holding approximately 160 bin bags. For commercial work, we also provide 40-yard roll-on roll-off skips, designed for high-volume waste and ongoing site projects.
Unlike standard skip hire, RORO skips are charged based on haulage and tonnage. This means the total cost depends on both the transport and the weight of the waste collected. For pricing or availability, call 02892 791 623, and our team will be happy to help.
When hiring a skip in Belfast, knowing what you can and cannot dispose of will help avoid delays or extra charges at the point of collection. Most everyday waste is accepted, but certain materials need to be handled separately.

Belfast ( BEL-fahst; from Irish: Béal Feirste, meaning “mouth of the sand-bank ford”,Irish pronunciation: [bʲeːlˠ ˈfʲɛɾˠ(ə)ʃtʲə]) is the capital and largest city of Northern Ireland, standing on the banks of the River Lagan on the east coast. It is the 12th-largest city in the United Kingdom and the second-largest on the island of Ireland. It had a population of 343,542 as of 2019. Belfast suffered greatly during the violence that accompanied the partition of Ireland, and especially during the more recent conflict known as the Troubles: in the 1970s and 1980s it was one of the world’s most dangerous cities, with a homicide rate around 31 per 100,000.
If your skip needs to be placed on a public road or in a parking bay in Belfast, a permit will usually be required from your local council. The cost of a permit is separate from your skip hire and can vary depending on the council and location.
In most cases, permits take around 3 to 5 working days to be approved, although this can take longer depending on demand and the specific area. Once issued, permits can typically last anywhere from a few days up to several weeks and can often be extended if needed.
If you’re unsure whether a permit is required for your location, it’s best to contact us directly before booking. We can advise based on your address and help ensure everything is arranged in advance to avoid delays.
The price to hire a skip changes depending on the type of junk going into the skip and the size of the skip you require. As a rule of thumb, you should expect to pay from £100 up to about £350 for a residential skip in most cases.
Depending on the size of the job your undertaking will determine the size of the skip you need. A general rule of thumb is to divide the number of bin bags of waste you’ll generate by ten. For example, if you think you’ll generate 60 bin bags of waste you will require a 6-yard skip.
Items which are suitable to to place in a skip are household items such as wood, tiles, plaster, furniture, paper, cardboard, garden waste and fabrics. You can also place heavy materials such as bricks, rubble, concrete, stones, metal, pottery and clays.
