What can and can’t go in a skip?
Most general household, garden, renovation and construction waste can be accepted, including materials such as wood, metal, cardboard, plastics, brick, concrete and green waste.
Items such as asbestos, fridges, freezers, gas bottles, liquid chemicals, paints, lithium batteries and hazardous electrical items must not be placed in a general skip. If you’re unsure about a particular material, contact us before loading your skip.
