Our Recycling Commitment

Responsible waste management matters to us. We do not simply collect your waste and send it to landfill. Every load is taken to our licensed transfer station where materials are carefully sorted for recycling and reuse.

We are committed to diverting the maximum possible amount of waste away from landfill. In 2023, we achieved an average recycling and recovery rate of 85%, well above the national average for general skip waste.

Metals separated and recycled Steel, aluminium and copper are recovered and sent to metal recyclers.
Wood chipped for biomass Clean timber is chipped and supplied to biomass energy facilities.
Soil and hardcore crushed for aggregate Inert materials are processed and returned to use in construction.
Waste transfer notes provided Every collection includes a duty-of-care waste transfer note for your records.

Why This Matters to You

Under the Environmental Protection Act 1990, you have a duty of care for your waste. Hiring an unregistered skip company can make you liable for fly-tipping offences, even if you had no knowledge of illegal disposal. Choosing a licensed carrier protects you from fines of up to £5,000 for individuals and unlimited fines for businesses.

Always ask to see a waste carrier licence before booking any skip company. Ours is available on request.

Customer Reviews

What Our Customers Say

Over 500 verified reviews. Rated 4.9 out of 5 on Google.

"Rang them at 9am needing a skip for a kitchen strip-out that was starting the same afternoon. The driver was on our drive by 1pm. Competitive price, no fuss, and they turned up when they said they would. Will absolutely use again."

David Hughes
Carmarthen

"Had CarmSkips out three times this year for a full house clearance after buying a property at auction. They were professional from start to finish, always on time and the price quoted was the price charged. Proper no-nonsense West Wales service."

Sharon Williams
Llanelli

"We use CarmSkips for all our trade waste across multiple sites in Carmarthenshire. Reliable, correctly priced, and they always provide the waste transfer notes without being asked. As a contractor, that documentation matters."

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions we get asked most often. Can't find what you're looking for? Give us a ring.

If the skip is being placed on your private driveway or property, no permit is required. If it needs to go on a public highway or pavement, a permit from Carmarthenshire County Council is required. We can arrange this on your behalf for a small additional charge. Permit applications typically take 2–5 working days, so please plan ahead if you think you will need one. Placing a skip on a public road without a permit can result in a fine.
We offer same-day delivery for orders placed before 11am, subject to driver and skip availability. Next-day delivery is available for orders placed at any point during the working day. For planned projects, we recommend booking at least 48 hours in advance to guarantee your preferred time slot. Call us on 01267 000 000 to check current availability.
Standard hire is 7 days. We understand that projects can overrun, so we offer extended hire periods from £15 per week. Simply call us before your standard hire period ends and we will arrange an extension. If you need it collected earlier, just give us a call and we will arrange collection at no extra charge.
As a rough guide: a mini skip (2 yard) suits small garden or single-room clear-outs; a midi skip (4 yard) is our most popular and handles most domestic jobs; a builders skip (6 yard) is ideal for construction and renovation waste; a maxi skip (8 yard) is suited to large commercial and site clearances. If in doubt, go a size up — it is cheaper to book one larger skip than to book a second collection. Call us and we can advise based on your specific job.
Yes, but there are weight restrictions to consider. Inert materials like soil, concrete, bricks and hardcore are very heavy. A builders or maxi skip filled entirely with soil can exceed safe loading limits for our vehicles. We recommend filling no more than half a skip with inert materials and topping up with lighter waste. Alternatively, speak to us about a dedicated inert waste collection — we can often offer better rates for large volumes of clean rubble or soil.
Yes. The following items are prohibited from all general waste skips by law: asbestos or asbestos-containing materials; chemicals, solvents, oils and paints; electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE); clinical or medical waste; gas cylinders; tyres; and batteries. Plasterboard can be accepted in small quantities but must not be mixed with biodegradable waste. If you are unsure, please call us before loading. Customers who place prohibited items in skips may be charged additional disposal costs.
Our drivers are experienced and take great care when delivering and collecting on private driveways. We use protective boards on block paving where required. If you have concerns about access or the condition of your driveway, please mention this when booking. Driveways with very thin or older tarmac may be more susceptible to marking from heavy vehicles, particularly in hot weather. We always aim to minimise any impact but please let us know of any concerns beforehand.
Yes, we serve a wide range of commercial customers including builders and contractors, retail and hospitality businesses, offices and industrial premises, housing developers, and public sector organisations. We can set up regular collection schedules, provide 30-day account terms for established businesses, and supply waste transfer documentation for your duty-of-care records. Contact us to discuss your commercial requirements.
We accept payment by card (credit and debit), BACS bank transfer, and cash. Domestic customers are typically asked to pay in full before or at the time of delivery. Commercial account customers can apply for 30-day credit terms on completion of our standard credit application. Invoices and receipts are provided for all transactions.
