Frequently asked questions
Do I need a permit for a skip?
Only if it goes on a public road or pavement. The council issues the permit, usually through the skip company, and there may be rules on lights and cones. On your own drive no permit is needed.
What cannot go in a skip?
Most skip firms will not take asbestos, gas bottles, tyres, batteries, paint, oil, fridges and freezers, or electrical items, and some charge extra for plasterboard or mattresses. Ask for their list before you start filling.
How do I know the waste is disposed of legally?
Check the company is a registered waste carrier on the Environment Agency public register. You have a legal duty of care for your waste, and you can be fined if it is fly tipped by someone you paid to take it.
How do I get a quote from skip hire companies in Birmingham?
Pick a listing on this page and send a quote request saying what needs doing and when suits you. The business comes back to you with a price and a time. It is free to ask, and no payment is taken online.
Are the skip hire companies on this page vetted?
Not yet. Listings marked Claimed have been claimed by the business and are kept up to date by them; the rest come from public records such as Companies House and Google and are marked as not yet claimed. Every listing shows its real Google rating and review count where one exists. We do not check registers or insurance yet, so ask for a Gas Safe or NICEIC/NAPIT number and check it yourself.
What should I check before I hire a skip hire company?
Ask for a written quote and what it includes, who will do the work, whether they are insured, and any registration the trade needs, such as Gas Safe for gas work or a Part P scheme for electrics. Never pay the full amount up front.
Prices and availability are confirmed by each business. No payment is taken online, you pay the tradesperson directly.
