Wyke Skip Hire

Due to the weight of the skips and the stabilising equipment of the lorry, damage is sometimes possible. However, our drivers are trained to minimise the risk. If you are concerned about the possibility of damage, please mention it at the time of booking.

Contact us and a driver will come to collect, usually within 48 hours. The skip is then taken to our waste transfer station where it will be processed for recycling.

Different councils charge different amounts, but it generally costs between £30 and £50 for a permit to place a skip on a road.

Your Wyke skip can be placed anywhere on private property that you own or have permission to use if it is accessible by our delivery drivers. If you are looking to place a skip on public areas such as a road or pavement, you will need a skip permit from your local council.

If you are placing a skip on private land such as a driveway or a garden, you will not need to obtain a skip permit. However, if you need to place your skip on a public road, you will require a skip permit from your local council. It is illegal to place a skip on a public road or pavement without permission.

Bricks, hardcore, rubble, soil (that isn’t contaminated), domestic waste such as packaging, furniture, furnishings, fixtures, and non-electrical fittings, wood, metal, and plastic.

If your payment is taken via debit/credit card you will not need to be at the property – the driver will be fully trained and able to undertake the delivery and collection. Should you have any specific instructions regarding delivery or collection, please advise us when you call.

Our prices are inclusive of delivery and collection of the skip and correct and ethical disposal of the waste. Also included will be any permit costs and VAT.

You do need to be prepared for the skip arrival and this includes ensuring the location you require the skip to be placed is fully accessible by our skip lorries both for delivery and collection. You should also plan how you will load the waste into the skip. Load the skip evenly with any flat items in first, at the bottom and around the edges. You must ensure that nothing sticks above the edges of the skip.

By law, skips must be loaded no higher than the sides of the skip. The use of boards to build the sides up is prohibited. Most importantly, the skip must be loaded securely and responsibly so that it is safe for road transport (See Highway Act 1980 – section 139 road traffic regulations act 1984).

There are materials that are prohibited from being disposed of in a skip for legal reasons. These include electrical and electronic equipment such as fridges, microwaves, hairdryers, radios, TV’s, computers, kettles and toasters, gas bottles and cylinders, chemicals and solvents, batteries, fluorescent tubes, clinical waste (such as syringes, soiled dressings, medicine bottles) hazardous waste such as paint tins, oils, petrol, diesel, aerosols, mastic tubes, plasterboard, tyres, mattresses, and asbestos.

Costs will vary depending on several factors, such as the size you require, how long you need it for, and the location and position that the skip will be delivered to. Contact us for an accurate price quote today.

Same day delivery cannot always be guaranteed, but we’ll do our best! Generally speaking, the earlier in the day that you call us, the better the chances of a same day service.

The waste is taken to a licensed disposal facility where it is sorted and processed to maximise recycling and minimise the amount of waste that is sent to landfill.

This is entirely up to you, but the normal hire duration is between 1 and 14 days. If your skip is on the road you will need to check the length covered by your permit.

Skips come in a range of sizes which are suitable for most projects and requirements. Our Wyke skip sizes include small skips which are also known a s mini skips and midi skips. Contact us and we are to happy to give you free and expert advice on the size of skip you require.
