About Us

Local Skip Hire You Can Rely On

When you need a skip, don’t risk unlicensed operators or hidden fees.

As an EA-registered Upper Tier Waste Broker (CBDU596771), we built a secure, fast booking platform for customers across Rochester, Medway and the surrounding areas. Every booking includes a Waste Transfer Note.

We partner with licensed suppliers throughout the South East to ensure that skips are delivered and collected responsibly on time and processed at approved facilities. On average, over 95% of waste is recycled or diverted from landfills.

Why Choose Local Skip Hire Team?

✔ Trusted locally: 100s of skips delivered every month. Familiar with the narrow streets of Gillingham and the parking restrictions in the Rochester High Street area.
Delivery windows: 8:00 AM–5:00 PM. For same-day delivery, order before 10:00 AM or early morning.
Permit support: If you need to place your skip on a public road, we’ll arrange the council permit on your behalf. It usually takes 3 to 5 business days. The typical cost is between £55 and £110 for 7 to 14 days. For more details, please refer to our permit guide.
✔ Flexible hire periods: Keep your skip for up to 14 days, with easy extensions if needed at just £30/ day.

Tip: In controlled parking zones, skip placement is restricted without a temporary bay suspension, and delivery will be refused, or you may get a fine. We help to arrange the bay suspension for you. Please confirm before booking a skip.
