If a skip is to be placed on your driveway, we recommend that any manholes are covered prior to delivery. We would remind you that a fully loaded vehicle can weigh upto 18tonne and whilst every care will be taken by our driver, we cannot be responsible for damage if instructed to place a skip on your drive. Special care should be taken with block paving drives. If you have any concerns please ring us for advice. It may be that the skips would be better being sited on the road or a grass verge.

Any skip placed on a public highway requires a permit from the council. CWSH will arrange a skip permit for you, along with lighting on the skip to comply with regulations, though you will need to meet the cost of doing so. Each council sets their own rate so please ring for current prices. Please be aware that a permit will only last for 2 weeks in Wirral and 1 month in Cheshire West & Chester.

The skip wagon (the vehicle that delivers the skip) needs at least an 8 and a half feet wide gap to unload the skip. Also, consider if there are any cables or low hanging trees over the area which could restrict access.

Skips must not be overloaded. The contents in the skip must not exceed the fill level. This isn’t our own rule to get you to hire a bigger skip – it’s the law! The reason for this is that although we net every skip before moving it. If the skip is overloaded Items could still dislodge and cause injury to pedestrians or motorists. It may also be too heavy for the wagon to legally lift.

A fire must never be started in a skip. Any items contaminated with plasterboard can not easily be recycled, with this in mind please let us know if you have plasterboard to go in the skip and we will send you a bag out with the skip to stop contamination and aid us with our recycling goals Environmental legislation forbids the following in skips: tyres, asbestos, aerosols, gas canisters, full paint cans, fridges or freezers.

Although we do have hire terms in place (7-14 day hire periods) we do always try to leave the skip with you until you let us know you are finished with it. Once you have contacted us to let us know your skip is ready we aim to collect it within 2-3 working days, depending on availability. If you need a skip gone by a certain date please let us know with as much notice as possible, ideally at time of booking. Unless pre-booked we are unable to guarantee next day collection as we only have so many delivery and collection slots available per day.

Depending on rental demand and stock levels we may not always be able to agree to extended rental so please bear this in mind when planning your job and thinking about the size skip you need to fill. If you need to extend the rental for any reason, please call us to discuss this with as much notice as possible so we can try and help you. If we are unable to agree to an extension due to stock levels please work with us to get the skip taken away so we can recycle your waste and help the next customer.
