answers to your questions
Common questions.
Do I need a permit for a skip?
Only if the skip is going on a public road or pavement. On a driveway or other private land, no permit is required. We can arrange the permit for you where needed.
How long can I keep a skip?
Standard hire is up to 14 days. If you need it for longer, just ask — we’ll extend the hire for a small additional fee.
What can't go in a skip?
Fridges, freezers, TVs, monitors, tyres, asbestos, paint, oils and chemicals. We can advise on safe alternative disposal for all of these.
How quickly can you deliver?
Often the next working day, and same day in many areas if you book before midday. Trade accounts get priority slots.
Do you take trade accounts?
Yes. Rolling monthly invoicing, priority delivery, and a dedicated contact. Get in touch for terms.
How is the waste handled?
Every load goes to a licensed transfer station where it’s sorted and over 90% is recycled. We’re a registered upper-tier waste carrier.
