Offices, shops, apartments and building sites all fall within our skip hire Manchester service, which covers every size we carry. That means mini and midi skips for small jobs, 8 to 16 yard skips for big clearances and RORO containers for major strip outs. We serve M2 and the wider city, with phone lines open 24/7 and same day delivery often possible. Wait and load and enclosed lockable skips help where city streets leave no room to park a skip.
In the city centre, a mini or midi often suits apartments and small units where space is tight. Office strip outs and retail refits usually need a 12 to 16 yard skip for bulky, lighter waste, or a RORO for the largest jobs. Rubble from building work suits an 8 yard, which holds around 7 tonnes. Our certifications cover ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001.
A skip in Manchester keeps a project moving. Instead of storing waste in a stairwell or back yard, you load it as you go, and we take it away when you call. For city centre sites with no room to leave a skip, wait and load is the answer. Enclosed lockable skips stop others adding waste overnight. All waste is sorted for recycling.

Mini, midi and maxi skips, plus RORO containers, wait and load and enclosed skips for Manchester homes, trades and businesses.
Five simple steps from choosing your skip to the last load being recycled.

You get a clear quote. If the skip goes on the road, we apply for the permit.
Our driver sets the skip down safely on your drive or the permitted spot.

Ring when it is full. We collect, usually within 48 hours, and sort the waste for recycling.
Where you are in Manchester shapes which skip makes sense. In M2, around Deansgate, King Street and Albert Square, offices, restaurants and apartments occupy older warehouses and listed buildings, and kerb space is limited. A Manchester City Council permit is needed for most placements, and loading bays or private yards are the best spots. Wait and load works for streets where a skip cannot stay. Out in the suburbs, terraces and semis suit anything from a mini to an 8 yard skip on a drive or side street. Contractors on larger sites may need RORO containers. We discuss access before every delivery.

0161 724 7252Across Manchester, skip prices depend on the size, the hire period, the waste and the location. City centre placements usually add a Manchester City Council permit fee. Office strip outs, RORO containers, wait and load and lockable skips are each quoted on the job. Household skips in the suburbs depend mainly on size. Call 0161 724 7252 for a quote.
That depends on a number of factors, such as the size you require, how long you need it for, and the location and position that the skip will be delivered to. Contact us and get an accurate price quote for your Manchester skip hire.
Mini skips (2 and 3 yard) suit garden and household waste. Midi skips (4 to 6 yard) suit kitchen and bathroom refits and clear outs. For soil, brick and hardcore choose the 8 yard builders skip, and for bulky, lighter waste from big clearances a 10 to 16 yard maxi skip. Tell us the job and we will recommend the right size.
Whenever a skip goes on a Manchester road or pavement, it needs a permit, which covers most city centre jobs. Manchester City Council issues the permit, and we apply for you. Skips on private yards, car parks or drives need none. The council's charges vary.
Different councils charge different amounts but it generally costs between £30 and £50 for a permit to place a skip on a road. We confirm the current charge when you book.
This is of course entirely up to you, but the normal hire duration is between 1 and 14 days. If your skip is on the road you will need to check the length covered by your permit.
Bricks, hard core, rubble, soil (that isn’t contaminated), domestic waste such as packaging, furniture, furnishing, fixtures and non-electrical fittings, wood, metal and plastic. We cannot take asbestos, electricals, fridges, tyres, paint, gas bottles, batteries or liquids.
Call us to let us know you have finished with the skip. A driver will then come to collect, usually within 48 hours. The skip is then taken to our waste transfer station where it will be processed for recycling.
We will advise you on the cost to hire a skip, depending on where you require the skip delivery in Manchester, what you plan to put in the skip, and how long you wish to have the skip for.
