Product Description
The Beaumont 160-litre bottle skip is a straightforward, mobile waste collection container designed for use in bars, event venues, and back-of-house areas where empty bottle volume builds up quickly during service. Constructed from low density polyethylene, it is lightweight relative to its capacity while remaining robust enough to withstand the daily knocks and scrapes typical of busy service environments.
In practice, this skip handles the volume associated with a busy bar shift or a function event where glass and bottle disposal needs to be managed efficiently without repeated trips to external bins. The four omnidirectional castors allow it to be moved and repositioned easily across smooth floors, and the easy-grip handles at both ends make it manageable when guiding it through tight back-of-house corridors or around bar furniture.
- Mobile design keeps bottle waste contained at source, reducing floor hazards during service
- Low density polyethylene construction resists cracking and is straightforward to wipe down
- Four-castor base allows easy repositioning without lifting
- Dual end handles support safe two-person movement when fully loaded
- Open-top design suits rapid disposal during high-volume service periods
Installation needs are minimal — this is a free-standing unit requiring no fixings or connections. It is best suited to smooth, level floors where the castors can perform properly; uneven or textured surfaces may limit mobility when the skip is fully loaded. Bear in mind that 160 litres of bottles represents considerable weight, so teams should be mindful of manual handling when the unit is near capacity.
This skip is a practical choice for bars, event catering operations, and venues with regular high bottle turnover. For sites with significantly higher volume or where a permanent, larger-capacity solution is needed, it is worth considering a heavier-duty alternative.
If you are unsure whether this size suits your typical service volume or have questions about bottle waste handling in your operation, the team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
- For a typical bar shift or mid-sized function, 160 litres provides a reasonable working capacity before the skip needs emptying. Very high-volume venues or large events may find they need to empty it more frequently, or would benefit from running two units or considering a larger-capacity alternative.
- The four omnidirectional castors perform best on smooth, level flooring such as sealed concrete, tiles, or sheet vinyl. On uneven, textured, or heavily trafficked kitchen matting, mobility may be reduced — particularly when the skip is carrying a full load of bottles.
- When fully loaded, a 160-litre skip containing glass bottles can become very heavy, so it is worth establishing a team procedure for moving it rather than relying on a single person. The dual end handles are designed to support a two-person lift or guided movement, which is advisable when the unit is near capacity.
