Skip Waste Materials
The Mick George Group provide Skip Hire services for a wide variety of Waste Materials, all of which are processed in the most environmentally appropriate manner.
Skip Waste Materials
The nature of your project or clearance is likely to 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 variations and availability (plus any additional surcharges, should the incorrect materials be added).
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)
Our most popular Skips are General Waste and Inert Waste; which cater for most Home and Garden waste materials.
Fridges, TV’s, monitors, tyres or hazardous waste which includes paints, solvents, liquids or batteries are not permitted within the Skip types aforementioned. However, we do also offer a range of hazardous waste disposal services, including asbestos bags.
