Common Questions About Skip Hire in Plumstead
Can I share a skip with a neighbour in Plumstead?
Yes, plenty of customers split a skip between two households, as long as one person books it and takes responsibility for it. It's worth agreeing upfront on waste types and how the space gets divided.
Can I put a fridge or freezer in my skip?
Not in a general skip. Fridges and freezers contain refrigerant gas and need to be collected separately, so let us know if you've got one to dispose of.
Can I get my skip collected earlier than planned?
Yes, just call or message us once you've finished loading. We'll fit the collection in as soon as we reasonably can.
Can I move the skip once it's been delivered?
It's best not to. A loaded skip is heavy and can damage your driveway or the road surface, so let us know in advance if you think the position might need to change.
What other areas near Plumstead do you cover?
We regularly deliver to Woolwich, Abbey Wood, Charlton, and the surrounding SE postcodes alongside Plumstead itself.
