So what sizes are available and how do I order?

First you need to decided what you require ( please call us if you need any help) then choose the size of the skip you require and call us on 01273 600909, or e-mail us your name and contact number and we will call you back.

Where can you place a skip?

Skips cannot be placed on the public highway without a permit and correct signage and lights. Please contact us if you cannot place on private land (remember the grass verge outside your house may not be owned by you!) as we can still help you organise this. Alternatively, we may be able to organise a wait and load facility.

What access do I need to provide?

As the vehicles delivering to your house are LGV's and normally very large, please make sure that there is sufficient access to allow it in/out safely. If you are unsure, please contact us and we can provide you with the approximate dimensions required.

What can I put in it?

Skips are for general and inert waste only, no Fridges, no TV's or monitors, hazardous waste which includes paints, solvents, liquids or asbestos. For a full list of things that cannot be put in a skip please contact us.

What size do I need?

Try to be realistic about what you have to throw away as getting two skips can be a lot more expensive than one big one! All skips must be level loaded so they can be safely transported on the road.

Not all skips can cope with inert/builders waste as the vehicle may not be able to lift or transport it legally.

Is my waste Recycled?

Greenacre Recycling bring 100% of our skips back to our Recycling Facility and anything that can be recovered will be sent for recycling.


Please remember that due to the stabilising equipment on a Skip Vehicle, damage can sometimes occur to the ground where the skip is positioned. This is especially applicable to block paved and soft tarmac
