Skip hire

Six ways to hire a skip from the yard

Every price below is the whole price: delivery, seven days’ hire, collection, tipping and VAT, anywhere within 15 miles of Swindon.

Mini, midi and builders’ skips for clear-outs, garden jobs and small refits. On the drive tomorrow if you book by 2pm.

From £160 inc. VAT

The workhorse sizes for refits, extensions and strip-outs. Mixed waste welcome, swaps in one visit, trade accounts on request.

From £265 inc. VAT

Brick, block, concrete and soil at the cheaper inert rate. Heavy loads go in 8 yards or smaller — we’ll tell you which.

From £150 inc. VAT

Skips with lockable steel lids for shops, schools and sites where waste can’t sit open overnight.

From £345 inc. VAT

Big open containers pulled on and off by hook-lift lorry, for commercial strip-outs, packaging and bulky light waste.

From £440 inc. VAT

The lorry waits while you load, then leaves. No permit, no skip on the road overnight, one hour on site.

From £230 inc. VAT
