SKIP HIRE IN GUILDFORD

We are Best in Guildford

Your Local Skip Hire Partner in Guildford

Our local waste removal team is helping people across GU1 to GU5, and if you’re looking to hire a skip, you’re in the right place. Our service is built around the unique layout, planning rules, and waste infrastructure of Guildford and Surrey.

As an EA-registered waste broker (CBDU596771), the Local Skip Hire team makes skip hire easy for Guildford customers through our highly secure online booking system, assigning jobs to our local waste carriers who are fully licensed and follow UK waste removal guidelines.

Our delivery window is divided into morning (8:00–11:00), midday (11:00–14:00), and afternoon (14:00–17:00) slots, depending on traffic, local restrictions, or events. Based on our booking data, we’ve achieved a 95% on-time delivery rate in GU1–GU3 over the past quarter.

All the collected waste is transferred to the Guildford Community Recycling Centre (Slyfield), a licensed disposal facility located at Moorfield Road, GU1 1RU, ensuring full compliance with Environment Agency standards. 

Local Facts About Guildford 

  • Guildford has tight street zones like Onslow Village, Merrow, and the historic town centre, which require advance planning and scheduling morning deliveries for easier access.
  • Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs) require bay suspension if your skip occupies a parking space or part of a public road. Please contact our experts before ordering.
  • Skip permits are required from the Surrey County Council for placing a skip on a public road. Our team handles permit paperwork, so you don’t have to worry about delays. No licence is required for placing a skip on private land.
  • For Red Route or trunk roads, static skips placement is prohibited. We recommend hiring a wait-and-load.

Your Skip Hire Questions

To help you prepare, we’ve addressed the common questions Guildford customers ask about skip hire, before, during, and after.

Compared to market rates, our skip hire prices in Guildford are highly affordable; what you see is what you pay. Based on our bookings over the past six months, skip hire in Guildford typically ranges between £230 and £780, covering everything from 4-yard skips to large 40-yard RoRo containers.

Yes, if the skip will be placed on a public road or pavement, a permit is required from the local council, which takes 3 to 5 business days and costs between £55 and £110. Don’t worry! Our professionals will handle this on your behalf.

Skips must be filled level with the top edge. Overloading makes it unsafe for transport and could mean we’re unable to collect it. If you think you’ll have more waste than expected, just let us know and we’ll help you sort a second skip or an exchange.

Smaller skips cost less than larger ones. The cheapest skip we offer in Guildford is a 4-yard skip, ideal for small home or garden projects.

While it’s unlikely, heavy skips placed on soft or delicate surfaces can occasionally cause marks or damage. To help prevent this, we can place wooden boards underneath the skip for extra protection, you just need to mention it when you book.
