Completely Flexible Skip Hire
Ordering a skip couldn’t be easier! Simply book a skip online that suits your size and duration needs, and we’ll contact you to confirm your skip delivery and duration. We offer complete duration flexibility, including next-day skip hire.
When you are finished with your skip, our friendly drivers will return to your location to collect the skip.
After collection, we’ll then take your waste to a licensed recycling plant and ensure that as much of it as possible is responsibly recycled.
If you just need waste collection, instead of a whole skip, contact our team today.
Take a look at our skip size categories below:
MINI SKIP HIRE
Perfect for domestic use; if you’re renovating a room or just having a clear out. We offer mini skips that are 2 yards, 3 yards or 4 yards.
MIDI SKIP HIRE
These sizes will be suitable for most commercial jobs or larger-scale projects. The sizes we offer include 6 yards and 8 yards.
LARGE SKIP HIRE
A commercial or builders skip for projects which generate a lot of rubbish! Sizes available are 10 yards, 12 yards, 16 yards and 23 yards.

CAMBRIDGE COUNCIL SKIP PERMITS
If you have adequate space on your property, you will not need a permit from your local council to hire a skip in Cambridge. However, if your skip will be placed on a public road, you will need a permit from the highways authority. Permission will be granted after consideration of the skip’s dimensions, safety, disposal of contents, guarding and skip removal. Essentially, the council need to know the skip will be safe and handled legally by registered waste carriers. Skips cannot be placed on yellow lines and will need to be marked with cones or clear guarding.
If you require a skip permit, our friendly team can sort this for you and provide road markings (cones). It can take up to 5 working days for your request to be granted, so make sure to prepare in advance and call us on 01353 649770 or contact us online. Skip permits last for 14 days, so if you plan to hire your skip for longer, you’ll need to renew your permit. Don’t worry though, we’ll be there to help you from start to finish.
Little Red Box Van for Smaller Waste Disposal Jobs
For smaller waste disposal jobs, our Little Red Box Van is the perfect solution.
If you don’t think you need a full skip hire, you can book our man-in-a-van service for a fast and flexible way to get rid of light waste. It’s ideal for locations where a skip won’t fit, or when you need a quick removal without the wait for a skip permit.
Our vans are flexible and adaptable for any of your waste removal needs, whether they’re for a commercial or a domestic project.
