Skip Waste Clearance: Which Items Aren't Allowed?

Electrical Equipment and Appliances

Items known as WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) - fridges, freezers, TVs, computers, microwaves - cannot go in a skip. They contain heavy metals and refrigerants that need specialist recycling under dedicated regulations. Take them to a local recycling centre or ask your retailer about take-back schemes.

Large Batteries

Car batteries and other large batteries contain lead and acid that can leak, contaminate the rest of the load and create a fire risk during transport. They must not go in a skip - take them to a battery recycling point at a local recycling centre or a scrap metal dealer.

Gas Cylinders

Gas cylinders stay pressurised and flammable even when they seem empty, creating a risk of explosion or fire. They are too dangerous to be put inside skips. Return them to the original supplier, or contact your local council or a specialised gas cylinder recycling service.

Medical Waste

Needles, syringes, soiled dressings and pharmaceutical waste can spread infection and contaminate other waste. Medical waste is only safe to handle with specialised equipment and services, so it is not suitable for skip hire. Use a licensed clinical waste contractor or return medicines to a pharmacy.

Asbestos

Asbestos fibres can cause serious, permanent lung damage, including cancer. Putting asbestos in a skip is not only hazardous but also illegal. B&K does not remove asbestos - it must be handled and disposed of by a licensed asbestos removal contractor.

Tyres

With tens of millions of tyres disposed of each year, the government has set special procedures for their handling and removal. Tyres are not suitable for skips - take them to a tyre retailer, a registered tyre recycling facility or your local recycling centre.

Fuel, Solvents, and Paints

Fuels, solvents and paints are common in homes and businesses, but their reactivity, flammability and instability make them unsuitable for skips. They can ignite during transport or leak and pollute soil and water. Take them to a household waste recycling centre that accepts hazardous liquids. Not sure what can go in? Contact us and we will advise.

Skip Hire vs Rubbish Removal - Which Do You Need?

B&K offers both skip hire and rubbish removal in Wandsworth. 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.

Skip Hire Wandsworth FAQ

How much does skip hire in Wandsworth cost?

Skip hire prices in Wandsworth start from £337.50 + VAT (£405.00 inc. VAT) for an 8-yard skip. A 12-yard skip starts from £417.50 + VAT (£501.00 inc. VAT) and a 16-yard skip from £467.50 + VAT (£561.00 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.

What size skip do I need?

It depends on the volume of waste. An 8-yard skip holds around 6 m³ (60-70 bin bags) and suits garden clearances, renovations and heavy waste. A 12-yard skip holds around 9 m³ (80-100 bags), ideal for bulky, lighter rubbish. A 16-yard skip holds around 12 m³ (120-130 bags) and is best for the largest commercial and construction clearances. If you are unsure, call us and we will recommend the right size.

How long can I keep the skip?

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 it for longer, please arrange this with our team in advance - rental fees of £50 per skip (or £70 per roll-on roll-off container) apply after the standard period.

Do I need a permit for a skip on the road?

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 Wandsworth 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.

Can you hire a skip without a driveway?

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.

Do you offer same-day skip delivery?

Yes, we offer same and next-day delivery in Wandsworth. 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.

What can you put in a skip?

You can put most general rubbish in our skips, including household items, garden waste, and construction debris like soil, rubble and wood, as well as scrap metal, paper, gypsum and plastic. Certain materials are not allowed for safety and legal reasons - see the next question for what can't go in a skip.

What can't you put 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.

Can I put soil and rubble in a skip?

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.

What is the weight limit for a 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.

What happens to the waste after collection?

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.

Do your prices include VAT?

Our headline prices are shown excluding VAT, with VAT added at the standard rate. For example, an 8-yard skip in Wandsworth starts from £337.50 + VAT, which is £405.00 including VAT. Delivery, collection and disposal are included in the price.

What are the benefits of skip hire?

Skip hire is an efficient way to manage large amounts of waste during home renovations, garden clear-outs or building work, saving you multiple trips to the tip. It also ensures your waste is disposed of legally and responsibly: as a fully licensed carrier, B&K handles the collection, sorting and recycling of the materials - we recycle 98% of what we receive.
