I read the reviews of skip firms carefully after hearing some horror stories. Barry's fared well and everything was smooth. Skip was dropped off on the day specified and picked up on the day I called for collection. No issues whatsoever.

2020 - Skip turned up on the dot and was collected almost immediately. Helpful and efficient.
2019 - Skip turned as stated and was collected a day later, they explained they're were busy that day but were very apologetic and more surprised that they could could collect it back so fast. Pleasure to deal with.
2018 - Skip turned up early and was collected swiftly. Professional and courteous. I would whole heartedly recommend this company to anyone.

Very efficient, call to hire an 8 Ton skip and it was delivered the next morning. When I called for collection it was also picked up the very next morning. I had called late in the afternoon on both occasions.

Dont have a clue if this company is any good but there is one of their trucks in front of me driving like hes stolen the truck! Speeding, overtaking on solid lines amongst other things. I definitely wouldnt ever use them.
