In the grand scheme of things a small skip is not expensive. Have a good clean out as well - you’ll probs fill a skip easily0

There are plenty of local waste clearance people which usually work out cheaper than hippo bags, especially for bulky stuff which doesn't readily fit in a bag.
You just need to make sure they are licensed ...

as above, there will be plenty of "man with van" type operators who are still working for whom, if you confirm are they are licensed, that sort of work is bread and butter stuff because house clearances are exactly what they do. They will be treated as commercial waste so can still get rid of it for you0
