Nationwide Skip Hire Guidelines

Booking: Once you booked a skip, you’ll receive a confirmation email with your skip delivery date and time.
Pre-Delivery Call: On delivery day our professional will give you a call to confirm that everything is on track.
Skip Placement: Your presence is not required during delivery. But, if you have any specific instructions for where to place the skip (e.g., near a gate, on your driveway, etc.), please provide this information when booking a skip. So, our team will carefully place the skip at your desired location. Please note: Once placed, the skip cannot typically be repositioned without booking a separate movement service.
Clear Space Access: Make sure your area is free from any vehicles or garden furniture that might obstruct the delivery and have enough space to park and unload the skip.
Delivery and Collection Timings: Skip deliveries and collections take place between 7 am and 5 pm.
You will receive a notification on the delivery day with a 2-hour window.
Winter Deliveries: Most of the deliveries occur after sunset during winter months. Please inform us in advance if there’s inadequate lighting for safe delivery to avoid additional charges.

1. Proper Loading Techniques

Place Heavy Items First: Place heavier items at the bottom of the skip to get more space and better stability.
Break Down Large Bulky Items
Flat Packing: Layer flat materials like doors or boards against the sides to maximize central space
Fill the Gaps properly: Use smaller items to fill spaces between larger objects for efficient use of volume.

2. Level Loading

Please make sure the skip is filled evenly, with no waste sticking out over the top.

3. Heavy Materials Guide

Soil/Clay: Fill to no more than 2/3 of skip height
Concrete/Rubble: Fill to no more than 1/2 of skip height
Mixed Waste: Can usually fill to the top if evenly distributed
Green Waste: Can fill to the top (as it’s relatively lightweight)

Wanting to ensure good value for money, I reached out to a number of organisations, and these guys are very competitively priced. The office team was very helpful in determining the correct size of skip I required, for the items I had for disposal. The skip was delivered on time, on the agreed date, and despite restricted access the driver maneuvered the skip into position with ease. The same driver collected the skip a few days later, again on the agreed date on time. All staff I was in contact with were friendly and professional. Combined with competitive pricing I would use this firm again and recommend to anyone who requires a skip.

Excellent service, always willing to help out even at short notice. Didn’t realise it but they cover the whole country so an urgent phone call we thought was going to be a dead end resulted in us getting a skip delivered out in King’s Lynn. Their prices are very competitive too.
