FAQ's

How are prices calculated? They skips are priced by their size and their contents. The only other cost to consider is if a permit is required to place the skip on a public road. This is issued by the council, in some cases we can apply for the permit on your behalf but some councils require you to do it directly. Please give us a call or fill out the quick quote section to check prices. What happens to the contents of the skip? We endeavour to recycle as much of the materials as we can. We sort the waste into their constituents elements, predominantly these are soil, hardcore materials, metal, plastic, glass and wood. We are then able to supply much of these materials to construction industry so there is no little or no waste. What size skip would best suit my needs?
