Excellent experience with this company. From booking the skip to the delivery and to the collection, everything was easy and quick. They even accommodated us and collected our skip first two days ago as we had issues keeping the space outside our front garden free of cars so the skip could be removed. Friendly guys, excellent service, good price.
