Small Skip Hire Exeter: Complete Guide To Affordable Waste Solutions
Looking for affordable small skip hire in Exeter? With UK landfill tax at £126.15 per tonne (Source: OBR.UK) and eco-friendly waste solutions in higher demand than ever, choosing the right small skip has never been more important. Throw & Tow Eco Skips Ltd is a family-run team providing cost-effective small skip hire across Exeter, perfect for domestic and commercial projects year-round.
Choose The Right Sized Skip For Your Project
Choosing the right-sized skip for your project is more important than some may think. Choose a skip too big and you may be spending more money than you need to – and the unnecessarily large skip will be taking up space on or in front of your property. Choose a skip that’s too small and you may not be able to remove as much waste as you need.
Here is the quick, small skip guide:
| Skip Size | Equivalent Bags | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 2-Yard Skip | 25+ bin bags | Small garden clearance, bathroom renovation |
| 3-Yard Skip | 35+ bin bags | Bedroom declutter, small office clearance |
| 4-Yard Skip | 45+ bin bags | Kitchen refit, garage clear out |

Customer Testimonial: Here’s one of our recent five star reviews:
“After shopping around online and being let down by some bigger companies who wouldn’t deliver to our narrow road, we went to Throw and Tow. The service was amazing, with really excellent communication from Steve and the delivery/collection driver. In this age of AI automation I have almost forgotten what the human touch feels like, and it’s really nice, and so worthwhile. Thanks very much, Throw and Tow. You made the whole project so much easier for us.”
