Why Use a Skip for Garden Waste?

If you’re after a simple, safe way to deal with green waste, our skip hire service is quick, reliable and affordable. Book with Eco Waste & Recycling and your materials are collected promptly and taken to our local transfer station, where they’re sent on for composting and recycling, this keeps your outdoor space tidy and gives your organic waste a useful second life.
The Benefits of Composting
When you use our green waste service, nothing goes to waste. Through specialist composting, natural materials break down into nutrient rich soil improvers and mulch. This means less need for artificial fertilisers, less landfill use and getting the most out of what nature offers. Recycling your garden waste helps keep costs down while protecting the environment.

It’s worth noting that many garden and landscaping projects also create general or hardcore waste including bricks, slabs, or patio rubble. These items cannot go into a garden waste skip and will require a separate skip for inert waste.
Any items placed in a garden skip that are not green waste will incur an extra charge. Some prohibited items require specialist disposal and putting them in your skip may also result in refusal of collection.
