Reliable skip hire in Cumnock.

If you have a small quantity of waste to dispose of, a mini skip might be the perfect option. What size is referred to as a mini skip is different from company to company, based on what sizes they provide.

The most popular size for the mini skip is 2 cubic yards. However, some firms opt to provide a 3 yard skip for their smallest option. The cost is based on the particular size you hire, rather than the term “mini skip”.

Mini skips are best for household work like small DIY projects and garden tidy ups. If you would like it put on your driveway and want space to park your car, the mini skip’s small footprint makes them a great choice.

The roll-on roll-off skip (RORO) is a large container that can be used to dispose of huge quantities of waste materials. Predominantly, these type of containers are hired for industrial applications. However, residential clients can also hire them. It is essential to consider the area they occupy, since they measure between 20 and 40 cubic yards. For this reason, they can only be utilised for light-weight waste such as plastics, timber and cardboard, and are not suitable for the removal of dirt and rubble.

We offer a nationwide skip hire and waste management service through a network of approved and fully licensed local businesses. So whether you are searching for skip hire in Cumnock, Maybole, Galston, Ardrossan or another location in Ayrshire and Arran, we are able to help.

Using a skip that has a drop door makes filling rubbish into it much easier. This is particularly true with hefty waste materials like soil and stone, which can then be loaded straight into the skip with a wheelbarrow. It will also make loading up big bulky items like furniture easier also.

The majority of skip containers can be provided with a drop down door, although this can sometimes depend upon your location and availability. Let us know when making your order if a drop door is needed, and we will do our very best to provide this.

When you have finished with your skip, we will come and collect it. It will be transported to a waste recycling centre either in or local to Cumnock where we separate the waste into its composite types (timber, metal, rubble, etc.). By separating the rubbish, we can reuse and recycle as much of it as possible.

No, you cannot dispose of old or broken electrical waste items in a skip. This includes things like computers, microwaves, washing machines, fridges and television sets. These objects can’t be thrown in your skip since they can have hazardous materials and components.

As a result of the 2003 WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Regulations, old electrical items cannot go to landfill and must be recycled.

No, you do not have to be home when we are delivering the skip. Provided that we can gain access to where you need it positioned, we are able to take care of it all.

If you are not going to be at home, simply let us know any relevant delivery directions when you book the order. For instance, you may want the skip to be dropped at a particular part of your drive. Alternatively, you may need to ensure that the skip does not prevent access to your garage.

No matter what the situation might be, simply tell us when you place your order, and we will ensure the directions will be passed on to the lorry driver.

If you place an order prior to 3pm Monday to Friday, we can typically have your skip delivered the very next day. Sometimes, we can even offer a same day delivery option. Availability and delivery days will be confirmed as part of the online order process.

Our goal is to provide the cheapest skip hire service in Cumnock. The price you pay will, of course, be determined by the size of skip that you hire. This varies from the mini skip, which is the lowest priced option, all the way up to the 40 cubic yard RORO container. If you wish to have your skip located on the road or other council property, you will also have to factor in the added price of the skip permit.

This is among the most frequent questions people have about our service. The main thing to remember is that you can load your skip with a wide range of different materials. After all, there are numerous kinds of waste that can result from garden work, construction work and property clearances.

Among the most frequent things that we find in skips include garden soil, timber, bush cuttings, kitchen cabinets, toilets, and various household objects.

However, there are some items that you are not allowed to throw in your skip. This consists of any electronic products (dishwashers, televisions or laptops for example), old tyres, asbestos sheets, plasterboard and chemicals. These are all classed as hazardous waste materials, and therefore disposing of them has to abide by an entirely different process to make sure they do not result in harm to the environment.

It is vital to not overload the skip. You can not pass the level load line shown on the side of the skip. If your skip is overloaded, it becomes very unsafe to move. Which means that when you overload the skip, you might be asked to remove the excess waste. However secure you think the skip to be, it cannot be picked up if overloaded. This includes making use of old doors or other large flat materials to build up around the waste. That is dangerous and is not allowed.

To offer a complete skip hire and waste management service in locations across the UK, we work with a variety of local and nationwide businesses. This enables us to cover all areas of the UK and helps to ensure we are able to provide customers with the most affordable and reliable skip hire service.

The builder’s skip is regarded as the common skip that is used in the UK. Coming in either a 6 or 8 yard capacity, a builders skip is perfect for most building and construction projects, which is where the label originates from.

The 8 yard builders skip will be the largest size that you can use for heavy waste like soil, concrete, bricks and gravel.

Hiring a skip should not be hard. That is why we have made the order procedure as simple as possible. First, type in your delivery address to view the range of skips we are able to deliver to Cumnock. Select which size you want to hire, and confirm whether it is going to be located on your own property. Type in your details and make payment using our secure payment platform.

After your order is done, we will send a confirmation email with your booking information. You can then sit back and relax while we handle the rest.

You can usually hire your skip for up to a fortnight from the day that it is delivered. To ensure that the pick up will be as convenient as possible, you will have the choice of providing a preferred collection time when you place your order.

Alternatively, simply let us know when you have finished loading up the skip, and we will arrange to collect sooner – in many circumstances, it will be the following working day.

It can take a little longer to pick up your skip during busy periods, but we will always try to be there as swiftly as possible.

This will depend on where the skip will be positioned. You will only need to have a skip permit if it is positioned on public property, such as a street, pavement or grass verge. You do not require a permit when your skip will be on private property, like a driveway or on your business premises.

If you do have to get a permit, we can organise this on your behalf as part of the service. Simply tell us as part of the order process, so we can make the required arrangements with your local authority. They will charge a fee for the permit, so if you can position the skip on private property, it will save you some pounds.
