B&K Commercial And Domestic Rubbish Collection Borehamwood
Prohibited Items for Skip Hire in Borehamwood
Electrical Equipment and Appliances
Items known as WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) cannot be placed in a skip. This includes appliances like fridges, freezers, televisions, computers, and microwaves. These items contain components like heavy metals and refrigerants that require specialist recycling and cannot be processed at a standard waste transfer station.
Large Batteries
Car batteries and other large industrial batteries are forbidden. They contain harmful chemicals, such as lead and acid, which pose a significant environmental and safety risk during transit and processing. These chemicals can leak and contaminate other recyclables in the skip, making the entire load hazardous. They must be taken to specialist recycling collection points.
Gas Cylinders
Full or empty gas cylinders are strictly prohibited. They remain highly pressurised and combustible, creating a severe risk of explosion or fire at the waste transfer station or during transport. Even empty cylinders contain residual gas. Please return them to the original supplier.
Medical Waste
Any form of medical or biological waste is not allowed. This includes needles, syringes, soiled bandages, and pharmaceutical waste. This type of rubbish is hazardous and poses a significant health risk, requiring disposal by specialist, licensed medical waste contractors.
Asbestos
Asbestos is an extremely hazardous material linked to serious health conditions, including cancer. It is illegal to mix asbestos with general rubbish. You must hire a specialist, licensed asbestos removal contractor for its safe disposal.
Tyres
Tyres are difficult to process and require a specific recycling path. They are also bulky and can damage sorting machinery. Old tyres should be taken to a registered tyre recycling facility or collection organisation.
Fuel, Solvents, and Paints
Liquids such as fuel, solvents, paints, oils, and other chemicals are banned from our skip hire services. These substances are often flammable, toxic, or polluting. They can cause chemical burns, ignite during transport, and contaminate groundwater if they leak from the skip. Please contact your local council for information on licensed disposal centres for these hazardous materials.

Skip Hire vs Rubbish Removal - Which Do You Need?
B&K offers both skip hire and rubbish removal in Borehamwood. The right choice depends on your project, how much space you have and how quickly you need the waste gone.
Choose Skip Hire when...
- You have a large or multi-day project, such as a renovation or building work.
- You want to load waste at your own pace, over up to 14 days.
- You have space for a skip - a driveway, or a public road where we can arrange a permit.
- You are clearing heavier waste such as soil, rubble or construction materials.
Choose Rubbish Removal when...
- Access is limited - no driveway, a skip lorry can't fit, or a permit is not possible.
- You need a one-off, same-day clearance rather than an ongoing skip.
- Our cage van handles it: 1 tonne loading capacity, or up to 5 tonnes with the large cage.
- It is a wait-and-load service - your waste is loaded within a standard 30-minute window, so please have it ready and accessible.
Not sure which is right for you? Get in touch and we will point you to the most cost-effective option.
Same-day Delivery & Flexible Hire
B&K keeps skip hire in Borehamwood simple. Order before 12pm for same-day delivery, subject to availability, and we will do our best to get your skip to you the same working day. Our standard hire period is 14 days, so you can fill the skip at your own pace, with rental fees of £50 per skip (or £70 per roll-on roll-off container) applying only if you keep it longer. Where a skip needs to go on a public road, we arrange the council permit for you, and for sites where a skip is not practical, our wait and load service offers a fast alternative.
