Items such as hazardous materials, electrical equipment, tyres, and chemicals are often restricted. Always confirm what’s allowed before loading.

Ensure there is safe, clear access for delivery and collection. If the skip will be placed on a public road, you may need a council permit.

Break down large items and load heavier waste first. Even distribution helps maximise space and keeps the skip stable. Be Sure to LEVEL LOAD the skip and do not overfill

Give yourself enough time. If you need the skip first thing in the morning, book the skip for delivery the day before, so you have it when you need it.

If you require more time, let us know 24hrs before we arrive to collect your skip. This avoids any unnecessary wasted journey charges.
