The process is simple and takes place over a few days or weeks, depending on your schedule. Here's what happens from start to finish:
- Book your skipCall or email with your postcode, estimated waste volume, and preferred collection date. We'll confirm availability and a time window (usually 8 a.m.–5 p.m. weekdays, or Saturday morning).
- Check skip permitsIf your skip will sit on a public road or pavement, we handle the skip hire licence application to the local authority under the Highways Act 1980 Section 139. On private land (drive, garden, site compound), no permit is needed.
- Delivery and placementOur driver will arrive with your skip on a cage lorry, place it safely, and check access for collection. We'll confirm your pick-up date and provide you with a unique skip ID.
- Load your wasteYou fill the skip at your pace – most people take 2–7 days. We'll remind you of collection day 24 hours in advance.
- Collection and documentationOur driver collects the skip, weighs the load, and hands you a waste transfer note (your proof of lawful disposal for environmental compliance).
- PaymentInvoice sent same day; we accept bank transfer, card, or cheque. No hidden fees.
If you're in a tight area – say, a narrow lane near Minworth or a busy residential street – let us know during booking so we can plan the safest approach.
