-
How long is a standard skip hire?
Our standard skip hire period is one week.
-
I need a skip for longer - is that possible?
Yes, absolutely! Whilst our standard skip hire duration is one week, you can have a skip for longer if needed. Simply let our team know how long you need your skip for and we’ll bill you accordingly.
-
My skip is full - how can I organise getting it collected?
As soon as you’re finished with your skip, just call our office on 0151 549 1882 and we’ll arrange collection.
-
Can I arrange an AM or PM collection of my skip?
Yes, absolutely. We schedule our drivers’ work for the day first before the start of the working day. To arrange a morning or afternoon collection or drop off, simply call our team first thing in the morning on 0151 549 1882 and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.
-
What area do you cover?
We provide skip hire services to the whole of the greater Merseyside area. That includes Liverpool, Knowsley, Sefton, St. Helens, Wirral, Warrington and Wigan. If you’re not sure whether we can deliver a skip to you, just ask!
-
Will I need a permit to place my skip on a road?
If you’re planning on placing your skip on a road in Merseyside – no matter where that is – you’ll need a council permit, otherwise known as a local authority skip permit. These permits range in price depending upon the local authority in question, some charging more than others.
Please note that it is our responsibility to assess whether your skip is being placed on a road/on council property or the public highway, either wholly or even partially. If we deem that it is, you will need a permit. And, whilst you may believe the grass verge in front of your property belongs to you, this isn’t always the case. In such circumstances, a permit would also be required.
-
What can I put in a skip?
Our skips are designed to take a wide variety of non-hazardous waste – things like garden waste, building debris, regular household waste and so on. If you’re not sure whether something can be placed in one of our skips, just give us a call!
-
Is there anything I can't put in my skip?
Items that cannot be thrown into a skip include (but are not limited to) gas cylinders, glue, chemicals, oil, paint, tyres, batteries, asbestos, medical waste, animal waste and fuel. There is an additional charge to be paid for the disposal of fridges or mattresses due to the costs associated in processing these items.
If you’re unsure as to whether you can place a particular item into one of our skips, please call us.
And remember, it’s actually against the law to mix regular non-hazardous waste with hazardous waste and, unless you’re properly licensed/have the correct permit and use the prescribed type of containers, it’s illegal for you to dispose of hazardous waste yourself.
Investing in safety
Our fleet of skip wagons are all FORS (Fleet Operators Recognition Scheme) registered and fitted with the latest safety features such as camera recording technology. This helps us protect our drivers, the public, and of course, you… our customers.
No more admin headaches
All our drivers are equipped with handheld digital tablets to manage their jobs. As soon as a job’s completed, your invoice will be sent directly from the driver’s tablet. And that means no waiting around for documentation to arrive.
Unrivalled communication
Once a skip is allocated, you’ll be sent a text to your mobile to confirm the details of delivery. This message will also include details for what can and cannot be taken in the skip. And that means no more charges for accidentally putting the wrong things in there.
Keeping you compliant
For customers planning to place their skip on a public road, we provide permits to ensure you’re compliant with all local authority regulations. If you’re unsure whether you’ll need one, simply contact our team and we’ll let you know.
