The lady I booked through was so good, she advised me to book a medium skip which was perfect. Everything went well and the skip was delivered and picked up as expected.

FAQs about skip hire in Folkestone

We’ve covered the most frequently asked questions from skip sizes and costs to permits and what you can (and can’t) throw away.

Skip hire prices in Folkestone range from around £220 to £455 for 4 to 12 yard skips and £400 to £755 for 20 and 40 yard RORO containers according to recent 90-day booking data.

The price depends entirely on your specific location, the skip size you need, and whether the skip contains clean inert waste (which is cheaper) or general mixed household and construction rubbish.

Yes, a permit from Kent County Council is required if the skip is to be placed on any public land, including roads or pavements in Folkestone.

No permit needed for placing on your private property (driveway). 

Our standard hire period is 14 days. If you need it for a longer duration, please contact our team in advance. Extensions available at £30 per day.

For small clear-outs or single-room refits, a 4-yard mini skip is usually sufficient. For kitchen or bathroom renovations, or for local builders handling heavy rubble, the 6-yard or 8-yard builder’s skip is the most cost-effective solution. If you have bulky but light furniture, consider a 10 yard or 12-yard maxi skip.

Plasterboard is considered a problematic material for mixed waste and large volumes cannot be placed in a standard skip in Folkestone. Small amounts are usually fine, but if you have a significant volume (e.g., from a full-house renovation), you must tell us when booking. We can either arrange a specialist skip for segregated waste or advise on a licensed recycling centre in the area.

We frequently achieve next-day skip delivery in Folkestone and can often manage same-day delivery for standard skip sizes (4, 6, 8 yard) if the order is placed early. However, this relies on our local partners’ live availability. If the skip needs a road permit, delivery will be delayed by the council’s 3–5 working day lead time.
