Frequently Asked Questions
Here you can find the most commonly asked questions we receive. If you cannot find an answer to your question, you can contact us here.
The size of the skip you need depends on the type and amount of waste you’re disposing of. A 2-yard skip is great for small household clearances, while a 6-yard or 8-yard builder’s skip is ideal for larger renovation projects. For commercial and industrial waste, we offer larger roll-on roll-off skips. Contact us for expert advice on the best skip size for your needs.
Yes, we offer fast and reliable skip hire services in Bournemouth, including same-day or next-day delivery where possible. Availability depends on demand, so we recommend booking in advance to secure your preferred date.
If you have private land, such as a driveway or garden, you can place the skip there without any issues. However, if you need to put the skip on a public road or pavement, a permit from Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP) Council is required. We can arrange this permit on your behalf.
