Clearing out a house, sorting the waste from a shopfit, or keeping a container on a building site for a fortnight - B&K has handled all of it in Edgware since 2004. We cover the HA8 area and the surrounding parts of north-west London for domestic and commercial customers alike, with collection, disposal and recycling handled end to end.
Our skips take a wide range of materials, including general household waste, wood, hardcore, soil, scrap metal, paper, gypsum, garden rubbish and plastic. Book by phone, by email, through our web platform or via our mobile app. If the skip has to stand on a public road rather than a driveway, a skip permit is required - we complete the paperwork and obtain it for you.

Skip Hire in Edgware: What Do We Offer?
- Local knowledge: we work across Edgware regularly and know how the area splits - the semis and long driveways off Hale Lane and Deansbrook Road, the tighter streets near Burnt Oak, and the loading constraints around the Broadwalk and Station Road shops. That decides where the skip goes and which vehicle we send.
- 98% recycled: waste goes to our own transfer station, where it is sorted and processed. Around 98% of everything we receive is diverted from landfill.
- Clear pricing: skip hire in Edgware starts from £322.50 + VAT, with delivery, collection and disposal included. See our price list for the full range.
- Fast and flexible: 14-day standard hire, next-day delivery as standard and same-day delivery when you order before 12pm, subject to availability. Where a skip won't work, our wait and load service clears the site in one visit.
Prohibited Items for Skip Hire in Edgware
Electrical Equipment and Appliances
Fridges, freezers, televisions, computer monitors and microwaves are classified as WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment). They contain refrigerants and heavy metals that require specialist recycling and cannot be processed at a standard waste transfer station. Barnet's reuse and recycling centre accepts them free of charge.
Large Batteries
Car batteries and other large industrial batteries contain lead and acid. If a casing splits during loading or tipping, it contaminates the whole load and turns it into hazardous waste, on top of the environmental and safety risk in transit. Take them to a specialist collection point or a garage that accepts them.
Gas Cylinders
Full or empty gas cylinders are not permitted. They stay pressurised and can explode when crushed or heated, which is a serious risk at the transfer station and in transit. Even an empty cylinder holds residual gas. Return them to the original supplier or refill scheme.
Medical Waste
Medical and biological waste, including needles, syringes, soiled dressings and pharmaceutical waste, is hazardous and cannot go in a skip. It has to be collected by a licensed clinical waste contractor, and unused medicines can be returned to any pharmacy.
Asbestos
Asbestos is an extremely hazardous material linked to serious lung disease, and it is illegal to mix it with general rubbish. Edgware has a lot of interwar and post-war housing where it still turns up in garage roofs, soffits and floor tiles. B&K does not remove asbestos - you will need a licensed asbestos removal contractor.
Tyres
Tyres are banned from landfill, are bulky and can damage sorting machinery, so they need a dedicated recycling route. Take them to a registered tyre recycling facility, or ask your local garage - most offer a take-back service for a small fee when you buy replacements.
Fuel, Solvents, and Paints
Leftover paint, solvents, fuels, oils and other chemicals are banned from our skips. They are flammable or toxic, they contaminate everything else in the load, and they pollute groundwater if they leak. Your local council runs a household hazardous waste service for these items.

Skip Hire vs Rubbish Removal - Which Do You Need?
B&K offers both skip hire and rubbish removal in Edgware. 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.
B&K Edgware Skip Hire Services Guide
Our Edgware service covers the whole job, not just the container. Tell us the address, roughly what you are clearing and where the skip should stand, and we will recommend the size and confirm the price before anything is booked in. If the skip goes on your own land - a driveway, yard or private forecourt - no permit is needed. If it goes on a public road or other council-owned land, a permit from Barnet Council is required by law and we complete the application for you. The council fee is charged separately, as the rate is set by the council.
Order before 12pm and we will aim to deliver the same working day, subject to availability; otherwise next-day delivery is standard. The 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. When it is full, call us and we will arrange the collection. The waste then goes to our own transfer station, where it is sorted and processed, and around 98% of it is recycled.

About Edgware
Edgware sits at the northern edge of Greater London, roughly nine miles from the centre, and covers the HA8 postcode. Most of the town falls within the London Borough of Barnet, with the western fringes reaching into Harrow. It is largely suburban - interwar semis, post-war estates and long residential roads - but it also has a busy commercial core around Station Road and the Broadwalk that pulls in shoppers from the surrounding towns. The Northern line terminus at Edgware station keeps it well connected to central London. B&K covers the whole town, from single-skip domestic clearances to scheduled commercial collections.
