Really good when it came to ringing and booking a skip came the next day and was really reasonable price for a 8yard skip. The collection on the other hand wasn't a good experience we rang Mon 15th morning to collect they said yes will be a couple of days no one came rang Thursday said yes will be today or tomorrow your on the list. Then we rang Monday 21st oh yes will be today or tomorrow then had to ring Tuesday 23rd and then we got put as a priority and they came within 2 hours to pick up. Overall I would use colsons again but the communication on collection really isn't good and we shouldn

Used Colson Grab hire twice now. Very reasonably priced and the service and communication second to none. Professional service throughout and on both occasions drivers have been polite and highly skillful. I alway like to see nice clean well maintained vehicles as well as this gives an indication of the firm too. Highly recommended

Fantastic service, needed to clear some old lawn and did not want the cost of a skip with permit. Ordered a skip bag, arrived the following day. Called late on Monday afternoon and collected on Tuesday. Fantastic service, just ordered a second bag. Thanks Colsons..
