What happens if I overload the skip?

An overloaded skip is a hazard. The lorry may struggle to lift the skip, and your overfilled waste can be dangerous to transport.

We advise all customers that skips should be filled in line with the side of the skip and never built up.

Your waste is brought to a regulated processing facility and the waste is segregated to ensure we achieve the best recycling rates for you. Through this process, we ensure that waste is not brought to landfill unnecessarily.
