Suitable for approved office furniture, shelving, storage units, packaging and general workplace-clearance waste.
Suitable for bulky shop fittings, dismantled shelving, cardboard, plastics and approved non-hazardous refit waste.
Provides extra room for boxes, furniture, timber and awkward household items that do not stack or compact easily.
Suitable for high-volume, relatively lightweight commercial waste, subject to the material and quantity being confirmed.

A 12 yard skip can normally take approved non-hazardous household, garden, clearance and light commercial waste. Acceptance depends on the material, quantity and local supplier requirements. Declare restricted or separately handled items before booking.
Some items may require separate handling or an additional disposal charge.
A 12 yard skip should not normally be filled with soil, rubble, bricks, hardcore, clay or concrete.
These materials are dense and may make the skip too heavy to collect safely before its available volume has been used. A smaller skip may be more suitable for an agreed dense-waste load.
If your project includes both bulky waste and dense building materials, tell Skip Hire Team what you are removing before booking. Separate skips or another waste-removal option may be required.
The skip hire cost depends on the delivery postcode, waste type, placement location, hire period, permit requirements and local supplier availability.
Skip Hire Team does not apply one fixed national price because delivery, collection, waste-processing and permit costs vary by location.

EXTRA HIRE NOTICE
Additional hire may be available from £30 per day when arranged before collection.
A 12 yard skip requires a firm, level placement area with sufficient space for the container and delivery vehicle. Any necessary council approval must be arranged before delivery.
A council permit is normally required before a skip is placed on a public road. Skip Hire Team can check the local requirements and arrange the application where available.
