Skip Pricing in Market Harborough
For accurate Skip Hire quotes, we would always advise being as realistic as possible when it comes to estimating how much waste is to be removed and for what period you’ll likely need the Skip. Not only will this save you money upfront, but it will also prevent any unwanted or avoidable charges at a later stage.
While it might initially seem better to book a smaller, cheaper skip, it could turn out more expensive if you then have to arrange for a Skip exchange, rather than collection.
Always select a reputable Waste Management provider, as they’re likely to offer the cheapest Skip Hire prices due to their recycling capabilities.

Generally, smaller skips are cheaper than larger skips due to the volume of waste each container holds.
Either through recycling, incineration or landfill, the waste will be processed in the most appropriate manner, which comes at an additional cost to the Waste Management provider, hence the volume of waste being one variable influencing budget Skip Hire pricing.
To ensure you are not paying more than you need to, take a look at our skip size guide to help decide on correct size skip for your project. We offer a comprehensive range of Skip containers, from 2-yard to 40-yard cheap skip hire.
Generally, the longer the skip hire period, the more you will have to pay, unless you have pre-agreed special trading terms. Often the case for Account Holders that have multiple Skips or Skip Hire used for commercial purpose.
It’s worth noting, that the duration of your Skip Hire will impact any Skip Permits you have for Skips placed away from private property.
Skip Hire prices are not consistent and can often vary from city to city.
As you would probably expect, Skip Hire costs increase in Greater London and the South of England, when compared with those further north, in places such as Scotland, Northern Ireland and the North of England.
Regardless of locality, it is essential that you select a Waste Management provider with the best credentials to suitably manage your waste, as this will impact the Skip Hire prices.
See our Skip Hire coverage areas on the map below.
It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the skip is sited on private property with consent of the landowner.
Skips will not be placed on public property without a valid Skip Hire permit from the relevant council.
The duration and fees associated to a Skip Hire permit varies dependent on your locality often ranging from £15 to more than £60. It is best to double check whether any Skip Hire prices quoted, include the permit fee.
The nature of your project or clearance will likely determine the waste materials that you are looking to dispose of.
Subsequently, we provide multiple Skip types specifically for different waste materials. It is important that you select the most appropriate one for your needs, as it will determine the cost, size and availability.
Predominantly, we supply four types of Skips – General Waste, Inert Waste, Plasterboard Waste and Wood Waste (Other Skips are available, I.E Asbestos / Hazardous Waste).
Each Skip will have restrictions on the type of materials that are permitted to be included as standard, before additional fees are incurred.
Note, it’s common practice for a weight limit to be placed on your Skip, determined by the materials included, to ensure that it’s safe to lift and transport.
