How to prepare for your skip Delivery

Usually your skip will be delivered on a large truck (LGV) with a skip loader on the back. We advise you to check that the location of the delivery is a minimum of 10ft wide, to make sure your delivery goes smoothly.

If there are special instructions such as access restrictions on site, then please ring us before placing your order.

Other Considerations

  • If you need to put your skip on the public highway or council owned verge, a permit is required. We can handle this for you, but we may require up to five working days to arrange this via the highway agency.
  • We will supply lights and cones for any skips left on the highway.
  • Safety is our priority for you and others so please do let us know if there are any potential hazards on site (overhead lines, obstructions etc).
  • If there are restrictions on when deliveries can be made please inform us when you place the order to prevent any failed deliveries.
  • Do not over fill your skip, this will prevent us from safely collecting your skip and items may need to be removed before we can collect.
