The 9m³ skip is a standard 6m³ skip with an extension on both sides. These extensions are manufactured from 3mm thick steel with strengthening channels to support these sides. This particular shape and size of skip is very popular with the scrap metal industry as it lends itself towards bulk scrap metal. Being open on both sides is beneficial towards loading and the emptying of product. Other variations are with one side enclosed thus giving it a shape similar to that of the 11m³ skip only smaller, bearing in mind that loading & emptying can only be facilitated from one side.
