Actually NO. Once delivered, skips should not be moved. Our drivers parked carefully for safety and access reasons. If you need your skip relocated, please contact us to arrange this. Without proper equipment, moving a skip can be dangerous and may damage your property.

Heavy materials like soil, concrete, bricks and rubble can quickly exceed weight limits. While these materials are accepted, we recommend:

• Limiting heavy waste to no more than 50% of smaller skips
• Considering a dedicated soil or rubble skip for large quantities
• Mixing heavier items with lighter waste where possible
