Reliable skip hire in Wirksworth.

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 date that you have requested. Most of our deliveries are made between Monday and Saturday.

When you confirm your order prior to 3pm Monday to Friday, we can typically have your skip delivered to you the following day.

Although we can’t promise what time we will arrive, we endeavour to provide you with an AM or PM delivery slot to manage your day more easily.

All we ask is that you ensure the delivery lorry has access to your required delivery site, as unsuccessful deliveries can lead to a fee for the wasted journey.

No, you cannot put old or broken electronic waste products in your skip. This includes items like printers, hobs, tumble dryers, freezers and television sets. These products can’t be thrown in your skip since they can include dangerous materials and components.

Due to the 2003 WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Regulations, old electronic goods cannot go to landfill and must be recycled.

We offer a nationwide skip hire and recycling service using a network of verified and fully licensed local businesses. So whether you want skip hire in Wirksworth, Long Eaton, Derby, Whaley Bridge or another location in Derbyshire, we are able to assist.

After you have finished with your skip, we come and pick it up. It will be transported to a waste recycling station either in or local to Wirksworth where we will separate the waste into its composite types (timber, metal, soil, etc.). By separating the waste materials, we can reuse and recycle as much of it as is possible.

You don’t really need to be at home when the skip is delivered, however it can help. Being in whenever the skip is being delivered means that you can ensure the driver is given complete access and that the skip is located precisely where you need it. Similarly, if the skip is delivered to a company premises, we will appreciate your assistance during delivery, particularly if gates will restrict the lorry’s access.

Having said that, when you can’t be around for delivery, don’t worry. We just ask that you tell us when you book your order, and then we will arrange things from there.

This depends upon the skip size you will need and if you will need to have a council permit. As you would expect, the smallest skip (the 2 yard mini skip) is the least expensive choice.

If you have a small quantity of waste to get rid of, the mini skip may be the ideal solution. What size is described as a mini skip is different from company to company, according to what sizes they supply.

2 cubic yards is the most common size for the mini skip. However, some firms opt to have a 3 cubic yard container as their smallest option. The price is dependent on the particular size you order, rather than the phrase “mini skip”.

Mini skips are perfect for domestic work like modest DIY projects and garage clean ups. If you want it put on your driveway and need space to park your car, the mini skip’s small footprint makes them a great choice.

Skips come in a variety of sizes to suit different waste disposal needs. Each container is measured by volume, generally in cubic yards. The smallest of these sizes is the 2 yard skip, sometimes called the mini skip. It will hold roughly 25 bin bags of rubbish, which is perfect for small residential tasks.

Next up is the 4 cubic yard skip, which will hold around 35 black bags of rubbish. This skip is roughly the dimensions of a small car and is often called a midi skip. The 4 yarder is a great option for garden clearances and domestic refurbishment jobs.

For those who have a more substantial waste disposal job to deal with, the builder’s skip may be the smartest choice. These come in both 6 and 8 cubic yards. As the label implies, these represent the most common sizes hired by builders for building waste, including soil and hardcore. However they can just as well be hired for domestic rubbish such as old furniture or kitchen cabinets.

We also supply 10-16 cubic yard skips and industrial 20-40 cubic yard roll-on roll-off containers. For additional details about the range of skip sizes we have available, please click the link below.

Guide to skip sizes

This is one of the most common questions people have about our skip hire service. The main thing to keep in mind is that you can load your skip with a wide variety of different materials. After all, there are lots of kinds of rubbish that can come from garden work, building work and household clearances.

Some of the most frequent things which we find in our skips include soil, timber, hedge trimmings, cabinets, toilets, and other household items.

There are some things that you are not allowed to discard in your skip. For example, any electronic objects (tumble dryers, monitors or washing machines for example), old tyres, asbestos, plasterboard and paint. They are all deemed hazardous waste materials, and therefore disposing of them must comply with a completely different procedure to ensure they do not result in harm to the environment.

Roll-on roll-off (RORO) skips are large industrial scale skips that are used primarily within the commercial sector. They come in 20-40 cubic yards, which makes them great for organisations that produce significant volumes of waste.

It is vital to not overfill a skip. You should not pass the level load mark indicated along the side of the skip. If your skip is overloaded, it can be very unsafe to move. This means that if you overfill the skip, you might be required to take off the surplus waste. No matter how safe you feel the skip to be, it cannot be picked up if overloaded. This includes making use of old doors or any other large flat pieces to build up around the waste. This can be dangerous and is not allowed.

Nearly all containers can be provided with a drop down door, which makes them easier to load. However, we can’t always guarantee this. If you require a skip with a drop-down door, please tell us when making your order, and then we will do our very best to accommodate.

A skip with a drop-down door makes it easier to load waste materials into the bin, especially with weighty materials, such as garden soil and rubble, which can be walked in using a wheelbarrow. This also makes it easier to throw in big and bulky objects, like furniture.

We use a network of both regional and national skip hire businesses to deliver skips to our customers in Wirksworth and the rest of the country. Every one of our partner skip hire providers are approved and evaluated to make certain they meet our expectations for cost, service, recycling and reliability.

Generally, it will be possible to have your skip located on the road, pavement or grass verge outside of your property or business. But in order to do this, you need to have permission from your local council in Wirksworth, which is called a skip permit. We can order this on your behalf, so you don’t have to worry. The council do impose a fee for your permit, and it may sometimes take 24-48 hrs for them to authorise this.

As the name implies, a builders skip refers to the size of skip most frequently hired for construction jobs. There are typically two different skip sizes that may be described as a builder’s skip – the 6 yard and 8 yard skip. These are both heavy-duty containers that you can use to get rid of large quantities of construction and demolition materials, like earth, concrete and bricks.

Although labelled a builders skip, they can be used for various other domestic and business waste disposal tasks.

Usually, you can keep your skip for a maximum of 2 weeks. Which means you don’t have to rush through your project. When you have completed your project or the skip is loaded 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 get it as soon as possible.
