I had my skip delivered on a Thursday and agreed to have it for a week. I filled it over the weekend and contacted them on the Monday and they collected it early and came on the Tuesday. Happy with the price, great service. Would use again.

This is an easy to use service for ordering a domestic skip to clear some soil and rubble and also some old broken domestic and garden items (tools, fencing etc). I had no idea where to start finding a supplier for a skip and came across this during a google search. After putting in my postcode I was offered a price and the option to book the skip, which I did. I got a quick confirmation from the company that my booking was forwarded to and the skip was delivered on the day I requested. My only niggle was that the booking site asked for an end date, which I duly entered, thinking that the collection was booked for the day I requested, I didn't realise that I had to ring the provider direct to arrange collection with them - so skip was with me longer than anticipated.

I saved at least £90.00 using skip hire comparison compared to if I was to go to the same company who supplied my actual skips. Found ship hire comparison very easy to communicate with and them to be very helpful. I will definitely use again should I require a skip. I usually go direct to Thanet Waste for waste removal, and usually find them quite good. However, on this occasion lady on phone very unhelpful when trying to book second skip direct so booked with skip comparison again and again great service.

We ordered a skip. It arrived on the day due and they took it away the day due. What more do you need from a skip hire service? Super quiet truck too, they delivered at 7:00am and didn't wake the kids which is nothing short of a miracle. 5 Stars.

Very easy to compare the cost of skips in my area and to find the ideal size I needed for the house clearance. Simple to use and pick the days I needed the skip dropping off and collecting. I liked the notes section which allowed me to leave a proper message regarding the drop off and location I wanted the skip leaving in. Plenty of space to leave the message for the drop off and not just a few words. Easy to navigate website and lots of options to allow you to find the service you need a ta price you want to pay.Skip Hire Comparison is the go to site to get what you want when you want and at a great price.

Have to say Skip Hire Comparison have been the best bin company I have ever dealt with, from customer service down to the price I honestly cannot fault them at all. Having a building company myself I need consistent and reliable contractors so I definitely would recommend them to anyone.

Ordered skip at short notice & even during Covid19, where most suppliers where out of stock, or not open, these guys found someone to supply a skip. It was a little more expensive but saved my loads of time calling around.

Easy to book, very competitive price, arrived and collected as agreed. Only negative is the website stated we can place 2 bags of plaster board on top of the skip. However, when we enquired on this matter we were told this is out of date and no plaster board can be placed in the skip.

The skip arrived a day late, but they were really helpful in getting it delivered the following day and were in contact to make sure it had been delivered. They also picked the skip up early when I phoned and asked for it to be collected. All in all I'd use the service again. Thanks.

Topsoil filled skip on day 1, operator would not remove however until the specified date booked, it would have helped me with my project to have it gone sooner so that I had the required space, if that had happened I would have given 5 stars, admin was excellent and skip arrived ontime.
