B&K Skip Hire Gerrards Cross

B&K Ltd provides skip hire and rubbish removal across Gerrards Cross, with same or next-day delivery available. Skip sizes from 8 to 16 yards, prices from £295 + VAT - call +44 20 8839 3147 or book online.

Looking for a reliable skip hire company in Gerrards Cross? B&K has served SL9 and the wider Buckinghamshire area since 2004. You choose from three skip sizes - 8, 12 or 16 yards - and we handle delivery, the council permit if one is needed, collection and disposal. Our skips take general household waste, garden rubbish, wood, hardcore, soil, scrap metal, paper, gypsum and plastic.

We are a fully licensed waste carrier registered with the Environment Agency, and 98% of the waste we receive is recycled at our own transfer station. Order by phone, email, our web platform or our mobile app. Most properties in Gerrards Cross have a driveway large enough for a skip, which usually means no permit is required - where the skip has to stand on a public road, we apply to Buckinghamshire Council on your behalf.

Commercial and Domestic: B&K's Gerrards Cross Skip Hire Services

local skip hire car Gerrards Cross during departure from the company seat

Whether you are clearing a house, refurbishing a commercial property or running an industrial site, B&K covers the waste side of it. We run our own fleet from Ruislip and our own waste transfer station, so delivery times and disposal are both under our control rather than a subcontractor's.

Order before 12pm and we will do our best to deliver the same working day, subject to availability. The standard hire period is 14 days, so you can load at your own pace - rental fees of £50 per skip (or £70 per roll-on roll-off container) only apply if you keep it longer. Every price includes delivery, collection and disposal, with no charge for the paperwork we handle on your behalf.

Prohibited Items for Skip Hire in Gerrards Cross

Electrical Equipment and Appliances

Items classed as WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) cannot go in a skip. This includes fridges, freezers, televisions, computers and microwaves, which contain heavy metals and refrigerants requiring specialist recycling. Take them to a dedicated WEEE facility or your local household recycling centre.

Large Batteries

Car batteries and industrial power cells are forbidden. They contain lead and corrosive acid that can leak in transit, contaminating the rest of the load and making it hazardous. They must be taken to a specialist battery recycling collection point.

Gas Cylinders

Full or empty gas cylinders are strictly prohibited. They stay pressurised and combustible, so an impact or compression in a waste truck can cause an explosion. Return them to the original supplier or a specialist facility.

Medical Waste

Clinical and biological waste is not allowed. Needles, syringes, soiled dressings and pharmaceutical waste carry an infection risk, and health and safety law requires collection and treatment by a licensed medical waste contractor.

Asbestos

Asbestos was used routinely in building materials decades ago and is carcinogenic when its fibres are disturbed. It is illegal to mix asbestos with general rubbish. B&K does not remove asbestos - you need a licensed asbestos removal contractor for safe handling and disposal.

Tyres

Tyres are bulky, difficult to process and can damage sorting machinery. They also trap gases and destabilise landfill, so environmental rules require them to be shredded or recovered. Take old tyres to a registered tyre recycling facility.

Fuel, Solvents, and Paints

Liquid fuels, solvents, paints and oils are flammable, toxic or polluting. A spillage contaminates every recyclable material in the skip and creates a fire risk during transport. These must go to a hazardous waste centre - your local council can confirm the nearest one. If you are unsure about a specific material, call us and we will advise.

Skip Hire vs Rubbish Removal - Which Do You Need?

B&K offers both skip hire and rubbish removal in Gerrards Cross. With skip hire you load the container yourself; with rubbish removal our team does the loading. The right choice depends on your project, your access 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.

About Gerrards Cross

Gerrards Cross sits in Buckinghamshire, roughly 19 miles from central London, with a population of a little over 8,000. The town keeps a quiet, village-like feel while holding some of the most expensive property outside London, much of it large detached housing on generous plots.

Fast rail links into Marylebone and easy access to the M40 and M25 make it a favoured commuter town, and that steady demand keeps extensions, loft conversions and full refurbishments going year-round. Those are exactly the jobs a skip suits, and the larger driveways here mean a permit is often unnecessary.

B&K serves Gerrards Cross and the wider Buckinghamshire area for both skip hire and rubbish removal. Call us and we will confirm the size, the price and the delivery slot in one conversation.

FAQ Skip Hire in Gerrards Cross

Skip hire prices in Gerrards Cross start from £295 + VAT (£354.00 inc. VAT) for an 8-yard skip. A 12-yard skip starts from £360 + VAT (£432.00 inc. VAT) and a 16-yard skip from £445 + VAT (£534.00 inc. VAT). Every price includes delivery, collection and responsible disposal. The final cost depends on the skip size, hire duration and whether you need a permit. See our price list or contact us for an accurate quote.
It depends on the volume of waste. An 8-yard skip holds around 6 m³ (60-70 bin bags) and suits refits, garden clearances and heavy waste. A 12-yard skip holds around 9 m³ (80-100 bags), ideal for bulky, lighter rubbish from house clearances and shop-fitting. A 16-yard skip holds around 12 m³ (120-130 bags) and is best for the largest commercial and industrial clearances. If you are unsure, call us and we will recommend the right size.
The standard hire period is 14 days, which suits most domestic and commercial projects. You can fill the skip at your own pace within that time. If you need a longer duration, please arrange this with our team when booking - rental fees of £50 per skip (or £70 per roll-on roll-off container) may apply after the standard period. Skips placed on public land are also subject to the duration of the council permit.
Yes. If the skip is placed on a public road or council-owned land rather than on private land such as a driveway, a permit from Buckinghamshire Council is required by law. B&K arranges the permit and paperwork for you. The council permit fee is charged separately, as it is set by the council.
Yes. If you don't have a driveway, the skip can be placed on the public road with a council permit, which we arrange for you. If a permit is not possible or space is limited, our wait and load cage van service is a practical alternative.
Yes, we offer same and next-day delivery. For same-day delivery, please order before 12pm, subject to availability. Early-afternoon enquiries are welcome and we will always do our best to help.
You can put most general, non-hazardous rubbish in our skips, including household items, garden waste, and construction debris like soil, rubble, bricks, tiles and wood, as well as scrap metal, paper, gypsum, cardboard and plastic. Certain materials are not allowed for safety and legal reasons - see the next question for what can't go in a skip.
The following can't go in a skip and need specialist disposal: electrical appliances (WEEE), large batteries, gas cylinders, medical waste, asbestos, tyres, and fuel, solvents or paints. Most of these can be taken to a local recycling centre or civic amenity site. For asbestos, a licensed contractor is required.
Yes, but soil, rubble and hardcore are classed as heavy waste and are subject to the skip's weight limit. For heavy waste we usually recommend an 8-yard skip, which takes up to 8 tonnes. Please tell us in advance if you are disposing of heavy waste so we can advise on the best skip.
Our 8-yard skip takes up to 8 tonnes, while our 12-yard and 16-yard skips each take up to 7 tonnes. Larger skips are designed for bulky, lighter waste, whereas the 8-yard skip is well suited to heavier materials such as soil and rubble.
After collection, your waste is taken to our own waste transfer station, where it is sorted and processed. Around 98% of everything we receive is recycled, diverting it from landfill in line with our environmental responsibilities as a registered waste carrier.
Our headline prices are shown excluding VAT, with VAT added at the standard rate. For example, an 8-yard skip in Gerrards Cross starts from £295 + VAT, which is £354.00 including VAT. Delivery, collection and disposal are included in the price.
Skip hire is a convenient and cost-effective solution for disposing of large amounts of waste, saving you multiple trips to the tip - particularly useful for home renovations and garden clearances. It keeps the site clean and safe by giving all your rubbish one containment point. It also ensures your waste is disposed of legally and responsibly: as a fully licensed carrier, B&K handles the collection, sorting and appropriate recycling of the materials - we recycle 98% of what we receive.
