Key Information
The size of the 40 yard roll on roll off skip makes it most ideal to dispose of large volume waste, or particularly bulky materials. At 19ft long, 8ft high and 7ft wide, our high capacity 40 yard roll on roll off skips are predominantly used by commercial customers working on construction jobs, site clearances, and larger waste volume jobs, with the 40 yard skip being able to hold a maximum of 15 tonnes of material.
As standard, we build our 40 yard roll on roll off skips with a 4mm floor and headboard, accompanied by 3mm sides. For most of our customers, this provides a 40 yard skip that is durable enough for the job in hand. For customers who require extra durability in their 40 yard skip, for example those moving heavier loads of waste, we can provide your 40 yard roll on roll off skip with heavy duty 5mm floor & headboard, with 4mm sides. This helps provide an extra layer of durability, and makes the 40 yard skip more hard-wearing when loading heavier volumes. Thicker floor, headboard & sides means a heavier overall weight for the 40 yard roll on roll off skip. For this reason, be mindful that the vehicle you're loading your 40 yard skip onto is equipped to handle heavier loads.
