"Skip" is British English for "container" [1].
Of course they come in various sizes, so it means anything from 1.5 m³ to just over 6 m³. A very rough measure, in other words, which makes sense in context.

- unwind 6y agoD'oh! Killed by a false friend [1]! Thanks. ("Container" is both "container" and "dumpster" in Swedish, and it's pronounced pretty much as "container" in English since it's a loan word, but the meanings have diverged, I guess.)
