Finding the right skip bin hire in Herne Bay doesn’t have to be stressful. As your local Devonport-based team, we understand that household cleanouts, renovations, and garden projects create more waste than your wheelie bin can handle. Our yellow skip bins have been helping Herne Bay families tackle their waste challenges since we started operating from our Lake Road base. We hand-sort everything that comes in, diverting 78% of materials away from landfill, because most waste companies just dump everything, but we don’t. Find out what can go in your skip bin before you book.
Skip Bin Sizes Available
We offer four skip bin sizes to match your project needs in Herne Bay. Our smallest 3m³ skip (1.6W x 0.6H x 3.3L) works perfectly for small bathroom renovations or garage cleanouts. The 4.5m³ skip (1.6W x 0.9H x 3.3L) handles medium household cleanouts, while our 6m³ skip (1.5W x 1.3H x 3.7L) suits larger renovation projects. For major home renovations or extensive garden work, our 9m³ skip (1.6W x 1.8H x 3.7L) gives you plenty of capacity. All our skips need a minimum 2.5 metre driveway width for delivery.

“The challenge with skip bin hire isn’t just about capacity, it’s about what happens to your waste afterwards. We’ve built our entire operation around the belief that most household waste contains valuable resources that shouldn’t end up in landfill. That’s why we invested in hand-sorting facilities and developed partnerships with local recyclers,” explains our operations coordinator.
