Dewsbury Skip Hire FAQs

What size roll-on roll-off skips can you offer?

If you manage a business in Dewsbury and want to get rid of substantial volumes of light waste, a roll-on roll-off container could be a perfect option. Available in 20 to 40 cubic yards, these are the biggest waste disposal skips that are available.

As the label indicates, these type of containers can be rolled on and off the lorry using a hook, as opposed to regular skips, that are picked up using chains.

What things can I put in my skip?

It is possible to load your skip with a wide array of different waste types which are commonly produced from loft clearances, building projects, garden landscaping and lots of other jobs. This can include timber, top soil, concrete, hedge trimmings, household furniture, toys, kitchen cabinets or outdated bathroom fittings.

What you put in the skip will depend on the skip size you have ordered, as there is a maximum weight restriction. For example, in the event that you will be using a skip for heavy building wastes like rubble or top soil, the maximum size you would be able to use is the 8 cubic yard builders skip.

Some materials should not be disposed of in the skip. This includes fridges, computer monitors, tyres, chemicals, paint, asbestos and plasterboard. These materials are classed as hazardous waste and therefore need to be disposed of separately.

How do I hire a skip?

Hiring a skip in Dewsbury through us is incredibly straightforward. Choose the skip size you need and then enter a couple of details about when and where you need your skip delivered. After that you can pay for the skip using our safe and secure online payment system. We will send a confirmation email and schedule to have your skip delivered on the date selected.

How much waste will a builder’s skip hold?

The name builders skip can refer to either the 8 or 6 yard skip. They are the biggest skips that can be used to dispose of substantial building and construction waste materials such as stone, concrete, gravel or soil.

A builders skip is perfect for a number of tasks. Whether you are getting an extension built, remodelling your kitchen or clearing the attic, these substantial skips will often be the most affordable choice available.

How much waste can you fit in a mini skip?

The mini skip is the most compact size available and may describe either the 2 or 3 yard skip. These compact containers are fantastic for small DIY work and household clearances. Their small footprint makes them perfect for driveways.

They can be used to get rid of all types of waste materials, from house furnishings and old baby toys to paving slabs and bricks. With a capacity of around 25-30 bin bags of rubbish, the mini skip could save you needing to make numerous trips to the local recycling centre.

What will happen to my waste when the skip is collected?

As soon as your skip is full and ready for collection, we will collect it and take it to a nearby waste transfer station, where it will be processed. The waste will get segregated into various waste streams, including wood, metals and cardboard. This helps to ensure that as much of the collection can be recycled as possible. Our company is very proud of our dedication to environmental protection by sending as little to landfill as possible!

Should I stay in when the skip will be delivered?

It is usually best if you can be there when anybody delivers something to your house. That enables you to ensure there is sufficient access for the delivery, and the skip can be dropped precisely where you need it.

The same thing applies for those who have a company. If there is a gate or security, it may not be possible to get a skip delivered if you are not there.

Nonetheless, if it is unavoidable and gaining access is not an issue, you don’t need to be there when the skip is being delivered.

When will my skip be delivered?

When your skip is ordered, we will try our best to deliver it to you on a date that suits you. We will usually give a following day delivery service for orders booked before 3pm on Monday to Friday. This is subject to having your skip placed on private property, since to be on public property (like a road), you will have to gain a skip permit which may take a couple of days to organise.

Due to many factors that could impact our service, we can never promise an exact delivery time. Having said that, we will always aim to let you know whether you can anticipate it arriving in a AM or PM slot.

Can you deliver skips across West Yorkshire?

Indeed, we provide a nationwide skip hire and waste management service. We can deliver our range of skips to areas across West Yorkshire, such as Dewsbury, Morley, Bradford and Wetherby. So wherever you want a skip to be delivered, we have got it covered.

Can a skip be dropped on a road in Dewsbury?

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

Should you have to get a permit, we will organise this for you as part of the service. Simply tell us while completing the order process, so we can make the required arrangements with the local council. They will charge a fee for this, so if you can have the skip on private property, you will save a few pounds.

What skip sizes can you provide?

Skips come in a number of different sizes to match different waste disposal needs. Each container is measured by volume, typically in cubic yards. The smallest of these sizes is the 2 cubic yard skip, often referred to as the mini skip. It will hold approximately 25 bin bags of waste, which is good for small household tasks.

Next up is the 4 cubic yard skip, which can hold approximately 35 bin bags of rubbish. This skip is roughly the size of a smallish car and is often referred to as a midi skip. The 4 yarder is a fantastic choice for shed clearances and home refurbishment jobs.

When you have a more significant waste disposal task to handle, the builder’s skip could be the smartest choice. These come in both 6 and 8 cubic yards. As the label suggests, they are the most popular sizes hired by builders for building and demolition waste, such as soil and rubble. But they can equally well be hired for household rubbish such as old furniture or kitchen cabinets.

We can also provide 10-16 yard containers and commercial 20-40 yard roll-on roll-off containers. For additional info on all the different skip sizes we have available, click on the link below.
