What makes an eco-friendly skip different from a regular skip?
Our eco-friendly skips are delivered using HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) fuel-powered wagons, which significantly reduce carbon emissions compared to traditional diesel. We also prioritise recycling, diverting over 90% of waste from landfill.
How do you make sure my waste is disposed of responsibly?
All waste collected is taken to our licensed 17-acre recycling facility, where it is carefully sorted. We recycle as much as possible and dispose of the remaining waste in compliance with environmental regulations.
Can I put recyclable materials in an eco skip?
Yes! Eco skips are designed for all types of recyclable materials, including wood, metal, cardboard, and garden waste. By using our service, you’re supporting a greener future.
Are there any materials that cannot go into an eco skip?
Certain hazardous items cannot be placed in an eco skip, such as:
- Asbestos
- Gas cylinders
- Paints and solvents
- Electrical equipment
- Medical waste
If you’re unsure, just give us a call – we’re here to help!
Is eco-friendly skip hire more expensive?
The option for HVO-powered delivery and collection starts at just £180 – only a little more than our standard service! You get all the benefits of sustainability while keeping costs down.
Do I need to sort my waste before hiring an eco skip?
No, you don’t need to pre-sort your waste. Our recycling facility will do the hard work for you. However, separating recyclable items like wood and metal can further streamline the process.
