How does commercial skip hire work?
Commercial skip hire need not be difficult — if you need to dispose of large quantities of waste, Countrystyle Recycling can help. Read through the simple 5 steps below for an outline of the commercial skip hire process.
- Choose the size of commercial skip you’d like to hire. Our sizes range from small skips to large Roll-On Roll-Off containers. If you’re not sure which size you need, get in touch with our team for some guidance.
- Tell our team your preferred delivery date.
- Ensure you have a suitable space to keep your skip. If you require a skip road permit, this will need to be arranged in advance (but we can help with this).
- Your skip will be delivered and you can fill it as you please, providing the items comply with our skip waste specifications.
- Contact us for collection once your skip is full. Usually our commercial skip hire duration is 14 days, but longer can be arranged if needed.
Commercial skip sizes
Skips offer the ideal waste disposal solution for a wide range of waste types. We have a range of skip sizes, meaning that you only pay for what you need. Whether you need a bin for recyclable waste, building waste, general waste, or anything else, we can deliver and collect at short notice to keep your project running. Our skip sizes include:
4 cubic yards
Our smallest skip, this size is ideal for garden clearances and smaller waste removal services.
6 cubic yards
Suitable for construction and renovation projects, house clearance, rubbish removal and general waste.
8 cubic yards
Typical builders’ skips, perfect for medium to large projects including shopfitting, demolition waste, rubble and general construction waste.
12 Cubic Yards
Ideal for large volumes of waste and bulky waste types.
We also hire out lockable enclosed skips for added security. If you need something bigger for larger volumes of waste or less frequent collections talk to us about our RoRo hire.
What to know before hiring a commercial skip
Access requirements
When delivering or collecting your skip, our drivers will reverse their lorry to pick up or place the bin down from the back end of the truck.
Please ensure there is ample space for delivery and collection, and that the area is free from obstructions such as overhanging wires or branches.
Level Loads
We only accept level loads.
As a result, please ensure the contents do not exceed the maximum fill line. If your container is overloaded, we reserve the right to refuse collection until excess waste has been removed.
Commercial skip road permits
No space for a skip and need to place it on a public highway? No problem.
If you need to place a commercial skip on a public road, your local council may have certain restrictions imposed to ensure public safety. As such, you’ll need a commercial skip road permit.
We can arrange a commercial skip road permit with the local authority on your behalf. If you need a skip hire permit, please ensure to let us know in advance, to allow enough time for permit processing. Skip permit costs and processing times vary by area, so it’s a good idea to plan early ahead. Our team of commercial skip hire experts will guide you through any special requirements based on your location.
Commercial skip hire duration
Our usual commercial skip hire period is 14 days but extensions can be arranged.
Please contact us to discuss your needs. When your bin is ready for collection, just give us a call.
Once your collection is booked, our driver will issue a waste transfer note, remove your bin and take it to our waste transfer station. Here, all waste is sorted into segregated waste streams. At Countrystyle Recycling, we own our own state-of-the-art waste management infrastructure. Any recyclable waste will be processed in our Materials Recycling Facility.
