Great Missenden Skip Hire FAQs

How much waste can you fit in the mini skip?

If you are looking for a low-cost skip to get rid of some household rubbish, the mini skip could be just the thing you need. With a choice of either a 2 or 3 cubic yard capacity (depending on area), the mini skip is a cost-effective waste disposal option to tackle many tasks.

A mini skip can fit on the smallest of drives but can equally be located on the side of the road, subject to obtaining a skip permit from the council.

Although most frequently chosen by household customers, the mini skip can also be used for small commercial jobs.

If I require a skip on the road in Great Missenden, will I need to have a permit?

This will depend on where the skip will be positioned. You will only require a permit if it is put on public property, such as a road, pavement or grass verge. You do not need a permit if the skip will be on private property, such as a drive or inside your business premises.

Should you need to get a permit, we will organise this on your behalf as part of the service. Just tell us as part of the order process, and then we will make the necessary arrangements with the local authority. They will charge a fee for the permit, so if you can place your skip on private property, you will save some money.

What is a roll-on roll-off skip?

If you manage a company in Great Missenden and want to dispose of large quantities of light waste materials, a roll-on roll-off skip may be a perfect option. Offered in 20 – 40 cubic yards, they are the biggest waste disposal skips that you can hire.

As the name suggests, these containers are rolled off and on the lorry with a hook, as opposed to conventional skips, that are picked up using chains.

How long am I allowed to keep the skip for?

You can normally hire your skip for up to 14 days from the date that it is delivered to you. To ensure the collection is as convenient as possible, you will have the choice of providing a preferred collection time when you make your order.

Otherwise, simply let us know when you’ve finished with the skip, and we will prepare to collect sooner – in the vast majority of circumstances, it will be the next working day.

It can take a little longer to collect your skip over busy periods, however we will always endeavour to come as quickly as possible.

Will a skip hire company from Great Missenden deliver my skip?

A local skip firm will likely deliver your skip in Great Missenden. We employ a network of both local and nationwide providers to enable us to provide our service to businesses and households across the whole of the UK. These firms are comprehensively vetted to make sure they fulfill the high principles we demand regarding customer service, price and environmental performance.

How much waste will a builders skip hold?

The builders skip is probably the most frequent skip that is used across the UK. Available in either a 6 or 8 yard capacity, a builder’s skip is perfect for most building and construction tasks, which is where the name stems from.

The 8 cubic yard builders skip will be the largest option that can be used for hefty materials including garden soil, concrete, rock and rubble.

Can I put all types of rubbish in a skip?

You can fill up your skip with a variety of different waste types that are commonly produced from house clearances, construction projects, garden landscaping and lots of other jobs. This could include wood, garden soil, stone, hedge trimmings, furniture, toys, cabinets or outdated bathroom suites.

What you put in the skip will depend on the skip size you have hired, because there is a maximum weight limit. For instance, in the event that you are using your skip for heavy building wastes such as stone or dirt, the largest size you can use is the 8 cubic yard.

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

Can I load up the skip above level load mark?

It is important never to overload your skip, as you run the risk of being asked to remove surplus waste before it can be collected. Regardless of the size you order, you are only able to load them to a level load. This is a basic safety condition, because transporting an overloaded skip can be dangerous, as materials could drop and result in injuries or damage to others.

To avoid this issue, please ensure you order a skip size suitable for your waste disposal needs. If your skip is full and you have extra waste to dispose of, we are happy to arrange an exchange.

Can I put electrical items in the skip?

No, you cannot throw old or unwanted electrical waste products in your skip. This includes things such as laptops or computers, cookers, washing machines, freezers and computer monitors. Electrical objects can’t be discarded in your skip since they can have hazardous materials and components.

Due to the 2003 WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Regulations, old electronic items cannot be sent to landfill and should be reused or recycled.

What will happen to the waste in my skip?

Whenever your skip is full and ready for collection, we will pick it up and transport it to a local waste transfer centre, where it will be processed. The rubbish gets sorted into a number of waste streams, including timber, soil and paper. This helps to ensure as much of the rubbish will be recycled as possible. We are proud of our dedication to protecting the environment by sending as little waste to landfill as possible!

How many different skip sizes are there?

When it comes to ordering a skip in Great Missenden, you have numerous options to pick from, which range from 2 to 40 cubic yards in volume.

The 2 yard skip, often referred to as a mini skip, will be the smallest option available. This compact skip is fantastic for modest domestic clearances and DIY jobs.

Our next size available is the 4 yard midi skip, that can hold the equivalent of approximately 35-40 bin bags of waste.

After the midi comes the builder’s skips, which are available in either 6 or 8 yards. These are the most common sizes ordered, as builders and tradespeople frequently make use of them. But their substantial capacity also makes them well suited for household clearances including large items such as furniture and beds.

We are able to supply 10, 12, 14 and 16 cubic yard bins for people with even larger waste disposal requirements. These containers are only suitable for light waste materials, so they can not be hired to dispose of garden soil or stone.

For further information about the various sizes available, including measurements, check out our guide to skip sizes.

When will my skip be delivered?

We will ask you to confirm when you would like your skip to be delivered as part of the order process, and we’ll ensure that it’s with you on the day that you have requested. Most of our deliveries are made between Monday and Saturday.

If you complete your order before 3pm Monday to Friday, we can typically have the skip delivered to you the next day.

Although we cannot guarantee what time we will arrive, we endeavour to give you a morning or afternoon delivery slot to manage your day more easily.

All we ask is that you ensure the delivery lorry can access your required delivery spot, as unsuccessful delivery attempts can lead to a charge for a wasted journey.

Can you deliver to other areas in Buckinghamshire?

Absolutely. We deliver skips to cities, towns and villages throughout the UK. By utilising a network of approved waste management businesses, we can provide skips to both household and business customers across Buckinghamshire and elsewhere within the UK.

Do I need to be in when the skip is going to be delivered?

When you are having a skip delivered to your home, it is always best to be in when the skip is delivered. You can then make sure the skip lorry has total access and that the skip will be situated precisely where you want it. The same applies for those who have a skip delivered to company premises, especially when gates restrict access.

Having said that, if this isn’t possible, you don’t need to stress. Just let us know when you are placing your booking, and then we will handle the rest.

What is the procedure for ordering a skip in Great Missenden?

Ordering a skip in Great Missenden with us is incredibly simple. Decide on the skip size you will need and then input a couple of details about where and when 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 then arrange to have your skip delivered on the date you have selected.

Do all skips have a drop door?

The vast majority of skips can be supplied with a drop down door, making them much easier to load. However, unfortunately we can’t always guarantee this. If you require a skip with a drop-down door, please let us know when making your order, and we will do our very best to accommodate.

A skip which has a drop-down door can make it easier to load rubbish into the container, particularly with weighty materials, such as dirt and rubble, which can be walked in with a wheelbarrow. This also makes it easier to load big and bulky items, like household furniture.

Other areas covered include Amersham, Olney, Chalfont St Peter, Princes Risborough, High Wycombe, Winslow, Beaconsfield and Milton Keynes.
