What does it mean that you are a Registered Waste Carrier?
By using a Registered Waste Carrier you are guaranteeing that your rubbish is handled by a reputable company, that conforms with all environmental and legal requirements for waste disposal. With the increase in fly-tipping, it is essential that you use a Registered Waste Carrier.

In most cases you are allowed to have a skip on a public highway as long as you have a licence / permit from your local authority – we are able to arrange this for you when you book your skip. The permit is valid for 14 days.
Please call us to check the current price of the permit.
