Question 5

What can and cannot go in a skip?

You can skip household waste, garden soil, wood, brick, and rubble. Avoid hazardous materials like asbestos, paint, batteries, gas cylinders, and tyres—these need specialist disposal. Your skip hire supplier will brief you on restrictions. If unsure, ask before filling.
