Assess the amount and type of waste to avoid overloading and extra costs.
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

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