Which skip for which job
Volume decides most jobs, but weight decides some. Soil, tiles and rubble fill the weight limit long before they fill the skip.
| The job | Skip we usually suggest | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Garden clear out | Mini or midi | Green waste is recycled separately when it is kept clean of rubble |
| Bathroom refit | Midi | Tiles and plaster are heavy, so keep an eye on the weight limit |
| Kitchen strip out | Midi or builder's | Old fridges and freezers cannot go in; ask about a separate collection |
| Soil and rubble | Mini or midi | Load level with the top edge and never above it |
| House clearance | Builder's or roll off | Sofas and mattresses must be kept apart in some countries |
| Renovation or extension | Builder's, swapped as it fills | A full skip can be exchanged for an empty one on the same visit |
What cannot go in a skip
Hazardous waste needs its own collection. In a skip it can hurt our crews and the sorting staff, and it can leak into the ground. These items are not accepted:
- Asbestos, even small pieces
- Paint, solvents and thinners
- Engine oil, fuel and car batteries
- Household batteries
- Gas bottles and aerosol cans
- Fridges and freezers
- Televisions, monitors and other screens
- Fluorescent tubes and low energy bulbs
- Tyres
- Chemicals, weed killers and pool cleaners
- Medical waste and needles
- Plasterboard, unless kept apart from other waste
Not sure about an item? Ask before you load it. We can point you to the right collection, and some items we can take away separately for a fee.
What counts as hazardous waste, and how it must be handled, varies by country and region; this list follows the rules where we work.
A skip on the road needs a permit
Where a skip cannot stand on your own drive, most councils and road authorities ask for a permit before it goes on the street. Rules, fees and waiting times vary by country and by council, so we check them for your address and apply on your behalf.
On the road the skip carries lamps and reflective markings, and cones guide traffic around it.
- Permit applied for by us, the fee shown on your quote
- Lamps and markings fitted to the skip
- Placed so the pavement and neighbours' drives stay clear
- Boards underneath to protect drives and paving
From booking to an empty driveway
Send the request
Pick a size, a delivery day and a collection day, and tell us where the skip will stand.
We confirm the day
We sort the permit if the skip goes on the road and phone to confirm the delivery window.
Fill it level
Load up to the top edge and never above it, so the lorry can lift the skip safely.
Collected and sorted
On collection day the skip goes to our transfer station, where the load is sorted for recycling.
Skips out on the road this week
From a garden clear out to a site that fills a roll off every few days.
Skips delivered, filled and gone (example reviews)
The skip arrived on the morning we picked, on boards so the drive was not scratched, and went the day after we rang to say it was full.
They sorted the road permit for a street with no driveways at all, and the lamps and cones were on the skip before dark.
Needed it for a single Saturday to clear the garden. One day's hire, one price, and the lorry was back on Monday morning.
Questions about hiring a skip
Can a skip be hired for just one day?
Yes. Every price on this page includes the first day, and extra days are added at the daily rate. If you need it for an hour, ask about wait and load: the lorry waits while you fill the skip and takes it away straight after.
How full can the skip be?
Level with the top edge. An overfilled skip cannot be lifted or carried safely, so the driver asks for it to be levelled before collection.
Does a skip on the street need a permit?
In most places, yes. Rules, fees and waiting times vary by country and council, so we check for your address and apply for you, with the fee shown on the quote.
Where does the waste go?
To our transfer station, where metal, wood, rubble, cardboard and green waste are sorted out for recycling, and only what is left goes on for disposal.
Can soil and rubble go in?
Yes, in mini and midi skips, loaded level with the top. Soil and rubble are heavy, so larger skips filled with them would go over the weight limit.
How is the hire paid for?
You receive a written price with the confirmation, and payment is arranged directly with us before delivery. Extra days and any overweight charge are settled at collection.
Request a skip
Choose a size, a delivery day and a collection day. We phone back within a working day to confirm both dates, along with any permit the street needs.
- Nothing is booked until we confirm it
- Permit fee shown before you agree
- Payment arranged directly with us
