Skip Hire
Do I need a skip hire permit?
If you intend to place the skip on private property (i.e your driveway, or garden) then a hire permit will not be required. If you intend to place the skip on public property (i.e a public highway or footpath) then a hire permit will be required. These can be arranged either by yourself, or the chosen skip hire supplier. There is usually a charge of around £25-£50 and it takes up to 1 week to arrange the permit.
What can I put in the skip?
We allow all materials, except hazardous materials. The materials we do not allow in any skip are:
• Solvents
• Corrosive liquid
• Biological waste
• Medical waste
• Laboratory waste
• Batteries
• Aerosols
• Gas canisters
• Pesticides
• Anti-freeze
• Paint
• Waste oils
• Motor oils
• Vehicle batteries
• Vehicle wheels
• Fire extinguishers
• Florescent tubes and light bulbs
• Televisions and computer monitors
• Fridges
• Asbestos
• Plasterboard
• Explosives
How long can I keep the skip for?
Our standard hire period is 7 days, though some suppliers offer 14 days as standard. Hire period extensions are available, at an additional charge, payable directly to the supplier.
How much can I put in my skip?
All skips must be level loaded only. Anything more can incur extra charges and may also be refused by the supplier.

I’m a tradesman, can I get a discount for multiple bookings?
Unfortunately we are unable to offer discount on bookings, regardless of the number. The prices displayed on our website are already insanely cheap, anything less and there’d be no profit for a cup of tea!
