“As we didn’t have a drive to put the skip on we needed a council permit which Jane at GSH organised quickly and informed us how long the permit was valid for. I would definitely use them again”

Skip Delivery and Collection
At GSH, we arrange skip hire in Merseyside around you. We can deliver skips to a location of your choice – be it your home or your business, your driveway or the road in front of your property.
Please note that skips being left on the road require a permit – but we can take care of this on your behalf.
All our domestic and commercial skips are transported on the back of reliable fleets. Please make sure that there is sufficient space for our loading vehicles to manoeuvre safely when we arrive at your premises.
When your skip is full, simply call us and we will schedule a suitable time to collect it from your premises. We transport all domestic and commercial skips to the local recycling facility where we aim to recycle 90% of the contents held inside – making Merseyside skip hire a sustainable method for waste disposal.

I need to hire a skip in Merseyside. How soon can one be delivered?
In most cases, a skip can be delivered to your chosen address on the following day. Depending on the skip hire provider, your preferred skip size, and availability, it may even be possible for it to be delivered on the very same day that you book.
Specialising in skip hire in Merseyside, GSH Skips cover all areas in Liverpool, Sefton, Wirral, St Helens, and Knowsley. Although we endeavour to meet your time requirements, we are unable to guarantee time slots but will always keep you in the loop so you know when to expect your skip to arrive.
If you need your skip in the morning, it’s worth booking it for the day before to prevent any holdups.
The skip delivery itself will take between 10 and 30 minutes, depending on how much access is available and where you want the skip to be placed. And our team will ensure that it is positioned safely.
How much does skip hire in Merseyside cost?
Several factors determine the price of skip hire in Merseyside, including:
· Skip size – our domestic skips are great for DIY and refurbishment projects. These tend to be cheaper to hire than our commercial skips which are best for large-scale jobs that generate a significant amount of waste.
· Waste type – though domestic skips cost less, you need to carefully consider the type and amount of waste you’ll be disposing of. The last thing you want to do is order a skip that doesn’t fit everything in and end up needing a second or third one.
· Project duration – at GSH, we pride ourselves on offering a tailored solution to meet your needs. However, the longer you need skip hire in Merseyside, the more you will pay.
· Location – where you plan to place your skip can impact the price too. If your skip will be left on the road, a permit will be required. This can be obtained from the local council for a small fee. If you have room on your private land (i.e. your garden, drive, or construction site), a permit won’t be necessary.
Our costs here at GSH Skips are all-inclusive, covering delivery, collection and disposal, and we pride ourselves on offering some of the most competitive rates for skip hire in Merseyside.

Do I need a permit for domestic skip hire?
When you hire a skip in Merseyside (or anywhere else), our team will take care of the delivery and collection for you, meaning all you need to do is wait for the skip to arrive and load it with waste.
With that said, you are responsible for the materials thrown in the skip – so it’s crucial that you know what you can and can’t put in.
Most types of waste are accepted, including:
· Construction waste
· Furnishings
· Furniture
· Garden waste
· General waste
· Metal
· Packaging
· Plastic
· Rubble
· Soil
· Wood
However, hazardous waste – such as fridges, asbestos, paint, fluorescent tubes, gas cylinders, and electricals – are prohibited from our skips and must be disposed of separately.
If you’re unsure whether something can go in one of our hired Merseyside skips, please don’t hesitate to double-check with the team at GSH. And keep an eye out for neighbours or passers-by sneaking things in that shouldn’t be there.
What size skips do you have available for hire in Merseyside?
Here at GSH Waste Recycling, we have a variety of different skip sizes available for domestic hire, including:
· 4 tonne midi skips – for small DIY projects – a cupboard clear out or garden tidy-up perhaps – this skip size is more than ideal.
· 8 tonne maxi skips – if you’re taking on a small-medium sized job, like a bathroom or bedroom makeover, our 8 tonne skips will be perfect.
· 14 tonne skips – if you expect your project to generate lots of bulky items and construction materials, your best bet is one of our 14 tonne skips, as they’re large enough to hold up to 120 bin bags full of waste! These are not for heavy waste such as rubble and soil

What can and can’t go in my hired skip?
When hiring a skip, many people think that they can just toss anything right in – but there are a few things you should think twice about.
Items such as wood, tiles, old or broken furniture, paper and cardboard, garden waste, clothes, bricks, concrete, metals, rubble and stones can all go in your skip, but you should avoid putting in the following:
· Plasterboard
· Carpet
· Hazardous items – asbestos, gas cylinders, batteries, etc.
· Electrical equipment – fridges, freezers, kettles, old phones, laptops, etc.
· Chemical, medical and biological waste – batteries, oils, syringes, used dressings, etc.
· Paint and glue
· Tyres
· Mattresses
If you come across any items that you’re unsure of, we’re here and more than happy to help.
