16 Yard Jumbo Skip Hire in Leeds
When a job throws up mountains of light, bulky rubbish, our 16 yard jumbo skip is the biggest standard container we run across Leeds — think shop fit-outs in the city centre, office strip-outs around Holbeck and Hunslet, or a full house and garage clearance out in Horsforth or Rothwell. It swallows sofas, packaging, timber offcuts and general clutter without you making trip after trip to the tip. You get the same friendly local service and clear from-£520 pricing as our smaller skips, just with a great deal more room to fill.
What fits in a 16-yard skip?
Holds up to 16 cubic yards — roughly 150 to 180 bin bags — so it comfortably takes a lounge and bedroom's worth of old furniture, flat-pack, carpets, timber, plastics and general household or shop clutter in one go. It's all about volume rather than weight: bulky items that would quickly overwhelm an 8 yard skip disappear into a jumbo.
Light waste only — this is the golden rule for a 16 yard skip. Because a full one is already near the safe lifting limit for our lorries, it must NOT take soil, rubble, bricks, hardcore, concrete, tiles or other heavy materials. Fill it with those and it becomes too heavy to collect, which means delays and extra cost for everyone. If your job is mainly heavy waste, our 8 yard Maxi is the right call instead; if in doubt, ring us on 0113 347 7330 and we'll steer you to the correct size first time.

Jumbo Skip questions
What can't I put in a 16 yard skip?+
No heavy materials at all — that means no soil, rubble, bricks, hardcore, concrete, tiles or sand. A 16 yard skip is strictly for light, bulky waste like furniture, timber, packaging and general household or commercial clutter. For heavy loads, choose our 8 yard Maxi skip instead.
How much is a 16 yard skip in Leeds?+
Jumbo skip hire starts from £520 including VAT, with 7 days' standard hire. The exact price depends on your Leeds delivery postcode, so pop yours into our online booking or give us a call for a firm figure with no surprises.
Will a 16 yard skip fit on my driveway?+
It's a large container — around 14ft long and 6ft wide — so it needs a good-sized driveway or hard standing. If there's no room off-road, we can arrange the council permit to place it on the public highway; just let us know when you book and we'll sort it for you.
