Reliable skip hire in St Ives.

If you are searching for a low-cost skip to dispose of some household rubbish, the mini skip may be just the thing you need. With a choice of either a 2 or 3 cubic yard capacity (based on location), the mini skip is a cost-effective waste disposal option to tackle many tasks.

The mini skip can fit on the smallest of driveways but can also be located on the side of the road, subject to getting a skip permit from the council.

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

Our goal is to deliver the cheapest skip hire service in St Ives. The price you pay will, of course, be determined by the size of skip you order. This varies from the mini skip, which is the least expensive option, all the way up to the 40 yard roll-on roll-off container. If you need to have a skip placed on the highway or other council property, you will also have to factor in the additional cost of the skip permit.

To provide a comprehensive skip hire and waste management service across the UK, we work with a wide range of local and national companies. This allows us to cover all corners of the UK and helps to guarantee we can supply customers with the most affordable and reliable skip hire service.

Typically, you can have a skip for a maximum of two week. This means you do not need to rush through your project. Once you have completed your project or the skip is full prior to the 14-day mark, we will be glad to come and get the skip earlier. Just give us a call or contact us on our website, and we will be out to collect it as soon as possible.

I’m afraid not. You can only fill up your skip up to the level load mark. Loading waste materials up above this line would make it unsafe to transport, and you can be asked to take away the extra waste before your skip can be picked up. This includes the use of doors, or any other objects to raise the height of the skip. Again, this will make transportation of the skip hazardous and it can also make it overweight.

No, you cannot dispose of old electrical waste products in a skip. This includes items like laptops, hobs, washing machines, refrigerators and tv sets. These objects can’t be disposed of in a skip because they can contain dangerous materials and components.

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

In most situations, your skip can be delivered on your drive, the highway, path or grass verge and deliveries can be made to your house or workplace. If you need the skip to be situated on land outside of your company or home, you must receive permission from your local authority in St Ives, which is referred to as a permit. If required, we would be glad to organise this on your behalf, so it’s one less thing to worry about. The local authority does charge a fee for the permit, and you should know before placing your order that securing the permit will often take up to two working days.

We will ensure your skip is provided when requested, which in most cases is going to be Monday to Saturday. When you place an order prior to 3pm Monday to Friday, we can normally deliver your chosen skip the very next day.

Although we can’t promise an exact delivery time, we will do our best to reach you within either a morning or afternoon slot of your choosing.

You should make sure the skip lorry will be able to access the delivery location, as a failed delivery attempt will normally incur a fee for the wasted journey.

The waste in your skip will be taken to a local waste recycling station. Here the rubbish will be separated by machinery and by hand into various waste streams, such as soil, paper, concrete and wood. Processing the waste in this way helps to maximise the volume which can be reused and recycled. Our aim and motivation is to maximise recycling and minimise the volume of waste that has to go in landfill.

The phrase builders skip can refer to two sizes – the 6 yard and 8 yard skip. The term stems from the fact that they are the most popular sizes that are ordered by general builders and tradespeople.

These large containers are perfect for a wide variety of household and industrial tasks. They are the biggest skips which you can use for hefty builders waste such as garden soil, rubble and bricks.

If you are getting a skip delivered to your property, it is always best to be there at the time the skip is delivered. You can then be sure the skip lorry has complete access and that the skip will be located precisely where you need it. This also is applicable when you have a skip delivered to business premises, particularly if gates restrict access.

However, if this isn’t possible, you do not have to stress. Just let us know when you are placing your booking, and then we will handle the rest.

Generally speaking, nearly all skips can be supplied with a hinged door, depending on skip size, availability and area. If you need a drop door, be sure to let us know when ordering your skip.

Having a skip with a drop door is mainly useful when you are hiring a large builder’s skip, since it allows you to wheelbarrow waste materials into the skip. This is not so important for midi and mini skips, because they are lower enough at the edges for you to be able to tip waste over the edge.

This site offers a complete variety of skip sizes to residential and commercial clients all over the UK. We have a skip to match all requirements – from the modest 2 yard mini skip to the huge 40 cubic yard roll-on roll-off container.

Listed below are the various skip sizes on offer, with a rough guide to how much waste each skip is capable of holding:

• 2 Cubic Yard – 20-30 bin bags

Prior to hiring your skip, it is essential to make sure that the type of waste materials you wish to discard will be allowed to go in the skip. Some goods and materials have to be kept separate and are not allowed to be mixed with general rubbish. This is a legal requirement designed to help protect the environment.

A few examples of waste types it is possible to put in a skip include household items like pieces of furniture, ceramic tiles, kitchen cabinets, garden waste and plastics. You could also use a skip to throw out building and demolition waste, including bricks, dirt, stone, metals and concrete.

Some examples of restricted items include things like electronic products, car tyres, paint, chemicals, batteries and plasterboard. These are all considered hazardous waste and subsequently must be discarded separately from general waste.

Sure, we provide a nationwide skip hire and waste management service. We can offer skips to locations across Cambridgeshire, such as St Ives, March, Ely and St Neots. So no matter where you require a skip to get delivered, we have got it covered.

If you run a company in St Ives and want to dispose of large volumes of light waste materials, a roll-on roll-off skip might be a fantastic option. Offered in 20 to 40 yards, these are the largest waste disposal skips available.

As the name implies, these containers can be rolled off and on the lorry using a hook, as opposed to conventional skips, which are lifted using chains.
