Reliable skip hire in Coleshill.

When you are getting a skip delivered to your house, it is best to be at home on the day the skip is delivered. Then you can ensure that the skip lorry has total access and that the skip can be located exactly where you want it. The same applies for those who have a skip delivered to business premises, particularly if gates restrict access.

However, if this is not possible, you don’t have to worry. Simply tell us when you are placing your order, and then we will handle the rest.

You are allowed to put a wide array of waste types into your skip. This can include timber, ceramic tiles, metal or bricks from a house clearance. Shrub and bush cuttings, top soil and rock from garden work is allowed too. Worktops and units from a kitchen and old bathroom fittings may also be discarded in your skip.

However, there are some items that can’t be put in a skip because of the potential environmental or health risks they may trigger.

You can not throw in your freezer, laptop or old car tyres. Chemical waste, asbestos or paint is also not allowed in the skip. Each of these things consist of hazardous elements in one form or another. They must be disposed of separately from your normal waste.

If you need hazardous waste removal, we may be able to organise an independent collection for this waste. Feel free to email us for further information. Alternatively, if you are a domestic customer, you may be able to take this sort of waste to your local council managed recycling facility.

The roll-on roll-off container, sometimes referred to as a RORO, is a large container that is used to get rid of large amounts of waste. These skips are predominantly for business use but can be hired by household customers as well. Having said that, you will want plenty of space because these skips range between 20 to 40 cubic yards, which is much larger in comparison to the average skip you will see on the roadside.

As a result of the size, roll-on roll-off containers can only be provided for light-weight materials such as plastics, timber and paper, and so they are not suitable for getting rid of concrete and rubble.

The mini skip will be the most compact size available from skip companies and is great for smaller DIY tasks, garden clearances and general tidy-ups. For the majority of firms, the mini skip is a 2 yard skip, which will contain the equivalent of roughly 25 black bags worth of rubbish.

Instead of a 2 yard skip, some firms offer you a 3 yard as their smallest skip. They will refer to this as being a mini skip, which can be a little confusing. But rest assured, the fee for hiring the skip is based on the actual size of the skip you order, so whether it is labelled as a mini skip or not won’t make any difference.

Once your skip is full and ready for collection, it will be taken to a nearby waste transfer station to be processed. The rubbish will be separated into the different waste streams, such as timber, cardboard, plastics, etc. This ensures that the maximum amount of the waste as possible is recycled, which is much better for the environment.

To discover how much it is going to cost to hire a skip in Coleshill, insert your postcode into the search box above. We will immediately show you the skip sizes we provide in your area and how much each size will cost to order. If the skip is going on the road or any other council-owned property, a skip permit charge will also need to be factored in.

Please don’t overfill your skip as this will make it unsafe to transport, and you will probably be asked to remove any items over the level load line. This means you cannot use sheets of wood, doors or another object, as this will artificially increase the height of the skip. Skip companies have a legal duty of care to ensure that skips aren’t overfilled or overweight before transporting them.

Please be sure to hire the appropriate size of skip to meet your needs and get in touch if you’re unsure which size you require. We will be happy to help.

This will depend on where the skip is going to be located. You will only need a permit when it is put on public property, such as a road, pavement or grass verge. You will not need a permit if the skip will be on private property, such as a drive or on your company premises.

If you need to get a permit, we can arrange this on your behalf as part of the service. Simply let us know during the order process, so we will make the required arrangements with the local authority. They will charge a fee for the permit, so if you can have your skip on your own property, it will save you a few pounds.

As we provide a national skip service, we use an extensive network of verified and approved businesses. These can vary from small family-run skip hire firms to nationwide waste management providers. Our service providers are vetted to ensure they match our high customer service and environmental standards.

In general, the majority of skips can be supplied with a drop-down door, dependant upon the size, availability and location. If you require a drop down door, please let us know when ordering your skip.

Getting a skip with a drop door is primarily beneficial if hiring a large builder’s skip, since it lets you wheelbarrow waste materials into the skip. This isn’t as important for mini and midi skips, since they are low enough at the edges for you to be able to tip waste over the edge.

When you place your order prior to 3pm Monday to Friday, we can typically have your skip delivered the next day. In some cases, we can even offer a same-day delivery option. Availability and delivery dates will be confirmed during the online order process.

Skips are available in a selection of different sizes to match different waste disposal needs. Each container is measured by volume, usually in cubic yards. The smallest of which is the 2 yard skip, sometimes called the mini skip. It will hold approximately 25 bin bags of waste, which is good for small residential jobs.

Next up is the 4 yard skip, which can be used to hold roughly 35 bin bags of waste. This skip is roughly the dimensions of a smallish car and is often known as a midi skip. The 4 yard skip is an excellent choice for shed clearances and domestic refurbishment jobs.

For those who have a more substantial rubbish disposal job to deal with, the builder’s skip could be the best choice. These come in both 6 and 8 cubic yards. As the title suggests, these are the most frequent sizes hired by builders for building waste, such as clay and rubble. But they can just as well be used for household rubbish such as broken furniture or kitchen units.

We also offer 10-16 yard containers and commercial 20-40 yard RORO containers. To get more info on the range of skip sizes we have available, please click the link below.

Guide to skip sizes

Ordering a skip in Coleshill with us is incredibly easy. Pick the skip size you will need and then input a handful of details about where and when you need the skip delivered. You then pay for the skip using our safe and secure online payment platform. We will send you a confirmation email and prepare to have your skip delivered on the date you have selected.

Electric powered products like tv sets, freezers, refrigerators, computers, monitors and hoovers are classed as a hazardous type of waste and so cannot be put in your skip with other waste. The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations 2013 requires that electronic products should be segregated from other rubbish. This ensures that they can be reused, recycled and disposed of in the safest and most eco-friendly manner.

Typically, you can have the skip for a maximum of 2 weeks. This means you don’t have to hurry through your project. If you have finished your project or the skip is loaded before the 14-day mark, we will be happy to come and pick up the skip earlier. Just give us a call or get in touch online, and we will be out to get it as quickly as possible.

We provide a national skip hire service using a network of approved and fully licensed local partners. So whether you want skip hire in Coleshill, Stratford-upon-Avon, Nuneaton, Kenilworth or any other site in Warwickshire, we can assist.

As the name implies, a builder’s skip is the size of skip most often hired for construction jobs. There are usually two skip sizes that can be labelled as a builder’s skip – the 6 cubic yard and 8 cubic yard skip. These are both heavy-duty skips which you can use to dispose of substantial quantities of construction and demolition materials, including garden soil, rubble and bricks.

Even though they are labelled a builder’s skip, they can of course be used for many other domestic and business waste disposal tasks.
