Skip Hire Cwmbran has a range of different skip sizes – including a 4 yard skip known as a midi skip.
Skip hire is measured in cubic yards
A cubic yard is 1 yard (3 foot or 0.92 metres) high x 1-yard wide x 1 yard deep. That’s roughly the size of two standard washing machines or dishwashers.
Our midi skip hire in Cwmbran will hold around 40 black bags of waste or around 4 tonne in weight

Permit Guide
What is a permit?
A permit is like renting a bit of land from the local council to place your skip on.
How do I know if I need a permit?
If any skip has to go on an area of ground owned or maintained by the council, as a rule of thumb you will need one.
How much is a permit and how long does this last?
This depends on the council. Typically a permit lasts between 1 and 2 weeks. You can have a number of skip exchanges during the course of this time and tends to cost around £50
Who organises the permit?
we organise the permit for you.

Are there any access issues for skip lorries?
As a guide, skip lorries are normally at least 8.5 feet wide and some as wide as 9.5 feet. The skip will need to be placed on the road and you will require a skip permit if:
- the entrance to your property is not wide enough for that sort of vehicle
- the ground cannot support at least 7.5 tonnes
