Empty paint tins are okay.

Usually, a few days’ notice is all that is required.

It is crucial that the skip is not filled beyond the rim. It is a legal requirement that the skip is covered during transport. If the skip is filled past the rim, you will either need to remove the excess contents or you may opt to order another skip to transfer the contents before scheduling another pickup.

If the skip is overloaded or too heavy to be safely picked up, and the driver cannot secure the contents properly, the skip will be considered illegal to transport. Consequently, you will need to remove the excess contents or order an additional skip for the overflow.

Payment for the skip can be made via direct debit before delivery or with cash on delivery.

Once the skip has been delivered, it should not be moved. The skip can be placed anywhere on your property that is accessible to the truck. Specific placement can be discussed at the time of order or with the driver upon delivery.

Deliveries outside of these areas can be arranged for an additional fee. We would be happy to discuss this further with you. Call us for more information.
