A great deal of rubbish in skip (4)
I believe the answer is:
trip
'skip' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for trip that I've seen before include "Journey for some purpose" , "Ride" , "holiday" , "Hallucinatory experience" , "a result of drug-taking" .)
