Reliable skip hire in Ystradgynlais.

The mini skip is the smallest size delivered by skip companies and is ideal for small DIY jobs, garden clearances and general tidy-ups. For most firms, the mini skip will be a 2 yard skip, which can hold the equivalent of roughly 25 black bags worth of rubbish.

Rather than a 2 yard skip, some skip firms offer a 3 yard as their smallest skip. They will refer to this as the mini skip, which may be a bit confusing. But rest assured, the actual cost of hiring a skip depends on the actual size of the skip ordered, so whether it is classed as being a mini skip or not won’t make a difference.

We can usually deliver skips to Ystradgynlais the following working day when your order is confirmed before 3pm. This applies to orders made between Monday and Friday.

Our online booking system gives you a range of delivery dates to select from. So whether you want the skip delivered ASAP or want to schedule delivery for a later date, it’s not a problem.

Of course, we can offer a national skip hire and waste management service. We can deliver our range of skips to areas throughout Powys, such as Ystradgynlais, Llanidloes, Llanfyllin and Presteigne. So regardless of where you want a skip to get delivered, we have got it covered.

A roll-on roll-off skip, sometimes referred to as a RORO, is a large skip used to get rid of large amounts of waste. These skips are mainly for commercial use but can be hired by domestic customers as well. Having said that, you need a good amount of space as these skips range from 20 to 40 cubic yards, which are much larger when compared to the average skip you will likely see on the side of the road.

Due to the size, RORO skips can only be provided for light-weight materials like plastics, wood and paper, so they are not suited to disposing of soil and bricks.

You can use your skip to throw out a variety of waste materials. We are used to picking up and processing numerous materials produced from construction work, garden landscaping and home clearances. Some examples of permitted waste products include things like:

• Home furniture
• Tree cuttings
• Soil
• Bricks
• Bathroom sinks
• Kitchen cabinets and units

The majority of materials will be accepted, so whether you would like to get rid of furniture, plastics, timber or unwanted toys, we can usually take your waste away.

The volume and materials you throw into the skip will vary based on which size skip you ordered. Skips do have a weight limit for safety reasons. So to be able to get rid of top soil and bricks, for example, the largest size you would be able to use is the 8 yard skip.

What kind of materials am I not allowed to put in the skip?

There are several materials that you will not be permitted to dispose of in your skip. The main reason for this is that these goods incorporate hazardous components which can harm the environment. They can also be dangerous to human health, therefore they have to be discarded separately under UK legislation.

Examples of the products that are restricted include:

• Paint tins
• Solvents Fridges
• Gas canisters
• Computer monitors
• Batteries
• Car tyres
• Chemicals
• Asbestos
• Plasterboard

Whenever your skip is full and ready for collection, we will pick it up and transport it to a nearby waste transfer station, where it will be processed. The waste will get sorted into a number of waste types, including wood, soil and cardboard. This helps to ensure as much of the rubbish can be recycled as possible. We are proud of our commitment to protecting the environment by sending as little waste to landfill as possible!

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

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

The term builders skip can refer to two sizes – the 6 yard and 8 yd skip. The label comes from the fact that these are the most common sizes that are used by builders and tradespeople.

These large skips are suitable for numerous types of household and business projects. These are the largest skip sizes that can be used for weighty builders waste like soil, stone and concrete.

As we offer a nationwide waste management service, we use a comprehensive network of approved businesses. These include small local skip hire companies to national waste management service providers. Our service providers are vetted to guarantee they satisfy our high customer service and environmental requirements.

It usually is best if you can be available when anyone delivers anything to your house. You can then ensure there is access for the delivery, plus the skip can be located precisely where you need it.

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

However, when it is unavoidable and access is not a problem, you don’t need to be there when the skip is delivered.

Generally speaking, nearly all skips can be provided with a drop door, depending on the size, availability and location. If you require a drop down door, please tell us when ordering your skip.

Having a skip with a drop door is mainly helpful if you are choosing a big builder’s skip, because it means that you can wheelbarrow rubbish straight into the skip. This isn’t as important for mini and midi skips, since they are small enough at the ends for you to be able to tip waste over the edge.

No, you cannot dispose of old or unwanted electrical waste products in your skip. This can include things such as printers, cookers, tumble dryers, refrigerators and computer monitors. Electric items can’t be thrown in your skip as they can have hazardous materials and components.

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

You can usually keep your skip for as many as 2 weeks from your delivery date. It is possible to provide a chosen collection date at the time you make your order. Alternatively, you can let us know once you have finished, and then we will arrange your collection. Usually, this will be the following working day, although it can sometimes take a bit longer over hectic times.

Please don’t overfill the skip as this makes it dangerous to transport, and you may have to remove any rubbish higher than the level load line. This means that you are unable to use sheets of timber, doors or some other object, as this will increase the size of the skip. Skip companies have a legal obligation to make sure that bins aren’t overfilled or overweight before transporting them.

Please make sure to hire the appropriate size of skip to meet your needs and get in contact if you’re uncertain which size you need. We would be glad to help.
