What can you put in our skips?

So, you've decided to hire a skip. Congratulations, you’re one step closer to a clutter-free life! But before you start tossing things in like it’s a game of Tetris, let’s have a quick chat about what’s allowed. Think of skips as the Switzerland of waste disposal: they’re neutral about most items. Household items, garden waste, and construction materials are all welcome. But, alas, not everything can make the cut. Mattresses, asbestos, plasterboard, and large electricals are no-go zones. And while you might be tempted to toss that old sofa in, it’s usually not the best idea unless you like the challenge of skip Tetris. Curious about the nitty-gritty? Our full list is just a click away at what you can and can’t put in a skip.
