To help you, here are some of the questions we get asked regarding same day skip hire and waste removal. Please do contact our team if there is anything else you'd like to know about our skip hire or waste disposal services.
A. You can fill the skip up past the level load, as long as the waste is kept in towards the middle of the skip and is safe for the driver to net. Do not leave any waste sticking out the sides of the skip though as this can be dangerous on the road and will therefore not be allowed.
A. Skips comes in various sizes and go by 'yard' measurements. Our skips come in three different sizes: 2 yard mini skips, which are our small skips, the next size up is our medium sized skips called 3 yard mini skips and our largest skips are the 5 yard midi skips more suitable for larger volume waste projects. The 5 yard midi skips are for lightweight goods only, (NO SOIL, RUBBLE OR CONCRETE). Click skip hire sizes for more information.
