Before you do that, though, you\u2019ve got to take out the old one! It can be quite a daunting task, especially if you\u2019ve never done it before \u2013 but don\u2019t worry, we\u2019re here to help. Hiring a skip for home renovations is obviously a key part of the process \u2013 so it makes sense for us to start there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What size skip do I need for removing my kitchen?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In general, a skip that\u2019s between 4 and 8 yards in capacity is the one that\u2019s most ideal for this sort of clearance. These are the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.skiphirenetwork.com\/skip-sizes\/\">skip sizes<\/a>&nbsp;that are most popular amongst homeowners for domestic refits and clearance, so you\u2019ll mostly find that 8 yards is the maximum you need to go. If you want to be on the extra-safe side you can order the next size up (14 yards) if you really wish, but we wouldn\u2019t say it was absolutely necessary. A maximum of an 8 yard skip is all you\u2019ll really need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a side note, make sure that you know what goes in your skip, too \u2013 as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.skiphirenetwork.com\/blog\/items-not-to-put-in-a-skip\/\">there are some items we can\u2019t accept<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the kitchen goods you can put in your skip:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fittings (non-electrical)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gas cookers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wooden kitchen cabinetry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bricks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Building rubble<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Furniture (such as kitchen chairs and tables)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Domestic waste such as food and food packaging<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>And here\u2019s what you can\u2019t:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fridges and freezers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>TVs and TV screens<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Electrical fittings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Electrical equipment and appliances (WEEE)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Paint or paint tins<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plasterboard<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Liquids<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Air conditioning units<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to get started<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you do anything, it\u2019s absolutely vital that all of your utilities \u2013 gas, water and electricity \u2013 are turned off. That doesn\u2019t mean turning off the taps and switching off the lights; we mean properly off, disconnected! Otherwise, it can be very expensive at the very best, and (more likely) awfully dangerous at worst. You can\u2019t turn off your utilities yourself \u2013 you\u2019ll need to get help from a qualified professional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For your water, you can&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ciphe.org.uk\/\">click here to find a local accredited plumber<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For your electricity, you can&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/niceic.com\/find-a-tradesperson\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click here to find a local accredited electrician<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As for your gas, the professional who performs this work needs to be accredited with the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gassaferegister.co.uk\/find-an-engineer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Gas Safe Register. Click here to search it!<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Once all your utilities have been turned off \u2013 and only once they\u2019ve been turned off \u2013 you can begin work on removing your kitchen. And obviously, you\u2019ll need somewhere to store your waste, so make sure your skip has arrived and is close at hand!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick tips to removing appliances and sinks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>First of all, when you\u2019re moving any items that contain water (for example, your dishwasher), ensure that you\u2019re keeping them upright to avoid the chance of any spillages. They connect to your utilities through two or three hoses. You\u2019ll be able to recognise them by their colour; there\u2019s hot, cold and outgoing waste (red, blue and grey). Since they\u2019re so heavy, it\u2019s worth having someone else around to help you take the weight. Stay safe!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for removing the fittings of your hob, cooker and extractor, we\u2019d always recommend consulting the manufacturer\u2019s manual. If you\u2019ve not got that to hand, check the website instead, and don\u2019t forge on unless you know exactly what you\u2019re doing. It\u2019s not worth the risk. Decide ahead of time whether you\u2019re going to dispose of them through skip hire, or if they\u2019re not suitable, whether it\u2019s worth selling them on to a new owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for sinks, you\u2019ll be pleased to hear that a standard-sized sink doesn\u2019t take too much effort to remove. You\u2019ll need to disconnect its waste connections, though, and ensure that the mains supply is off. (As if we haven\u2019t mentioned that enough already!) There will also be the undermount fixings and the watertight sealant around the underside to deal with, too, so check underneath it before you try and wrench it away from the wall. The sealant can be cut away, but make sure to wear highly protective gloves, and take your time. That way you can both minimise the damage to the sink, and reduce the risk of injuring yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Removing work surfaces<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most kitchen worktops have easily-visible fittings on the underside, so it\u2019s just a matter of undoing these fittings so that it comes free. The joins you\u2019ll find may well have a bolted or mitred point, so make sure you undo those as well. Now, if you\u2019ve got a \u2018waterfall effect\u2019 where your tiled splashbacks run down onto the top side of your worktops, be prepared to have to remove the bottom row in order to properly remove your worktop. The worktop itself will, of course, be incredibly heavy, so we\u2019d seriously advise against trying to remove it completely solo. It\u2019s best as at least a two-man job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Taking off the drawers and doors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news here is that almost all modern cabinets have a release clip, which makes it a quick and simple task to remove their doors without having to undo the hinges too. If you find that your kitchen cabinetry doesn\u2019t have these clips \u2013 which is fair enough, as not everyone does! \u2013 then the traditional method of unscrewing them doesn\u2019t take ages either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, your kitchen drawers can be removed simply by pulling them up to release them from the runners. (It\u2019s so easy that many of us can sometimes find we\u2019ve done it accidentally in our day-to-day lives, just before we spend the next ten minutes trying to get the blooming things back in again.) Drawers also have a retaining clip that needs to be released to get it to properly disengage, and then that should be the job done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Taking out your kitchen cabinetry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll find that your cabinetry is usually affixed to the wall with brackets. The base units \u2013 those at waist level \u2013 will have simple fixing points through the back wall, though their legs underneath will be the bits taking all the weight. Units that are adjacent to each other will probably have affixing screws attaching them to each other, too, so if you can\u2019t work out why one of them isn\u2019t coming out, that might be the place to start!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The wall units higher up, meanwhile, will have substantial brackets underneath supporting them. Loosen the screws at the back on each side, then just lift it up off its brackets. Be careful \u2013 it might well be heavier than you think! Once again, make sure that all the affixing screws between each cabinet are removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Now that your skip is filled\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So, that\u2019s all there is to it!
