Pick a size, pick a date, and we'll drop a big yellow box wherever you need it. Bathroom reno? 4-yarder. Entire house? 12-yarder. We sort the permits too, because nobody wants to deal with the council.
Need something more specific? We've got you.
2–4 yard mini skips for small renovations, garden clearances, and decluttering projects.

Learn moreWe offer both, so this is a straight comparison rather than a sales pitch. The honest answer: it depends on who's doing the lifting and how long the job takes.
| Skip hire | Man-and-van collection | |
|---|---|---|
| Typical cost | From £150, plus a council permit (roughly £30–£110) if it sits on the road | £80–£410+ depending on load size — no permit ever needed |
| Who does the loading | You do | We do — carrying, lifting, the lot |
| Time on site | Days to weeks — fill it at your own pace | Usually 30–60 minutes, then it's gone |
| Space needed | A driveway, or a permitted spot on the road | None — the van arrives and leaves |
| You pay for | The whole skip, however full it ends up | Only the volume we actually take |
| Best for | Long renovations with heavy waste (rubble, soil) and someone to fill it | Clearances and one-off loads where you'd rather not lift anything |
Rule of thumb: doing building work over weeks with your own labour — hire the skip. Clearing a house, office or garden and want it gone today without lifting — the van works out easier and usually cheaper once the permit and your own time are counted.
