The Local Large Skip Hire Specialists in Hitchin

Large skip hire in Hitchin is the ideal solution for bigger domestic projects and light commercial work across North Hertfordshire. Our 8-yard and 12-yard large skips are designed to handle full house clearances, major renovation projects, and landscaping jobs generating significant volumes of mixed waste. We deliver same-day and next-day across Hitchin, Letchworth, Stevenage, Baldock, and all surrounding Hertfordshire villages.

The Right Size Skip for House Clearances & Major Renovations

An 8-yard large skip holds approximately 90 black bin bags of waste, while a 12-yard skip holds around 130 bags — making them the perfect choice for full house clearances, major home extensions, loft conversions generating large volumes of debris, and commercial site waste. We make large skip hire in Hitchin as simple as possible — you call us, we deliver your skip, you fill it at your own pace, and we collect it when you are ready.

Our team will always advise you honestly on the best skip size for your specific job, whether that is an 8-yard skip for a full house clearance or a 12-yard skip for a major construction project. When your large skip is collected, all waste is taken to a licensed waste transfer station in Hertfordshire where we aim to recycle 95% of all materials collected. You can book your large skip in Hitchin today with no fuss, no contract, and no hidden fees.

What Can You Put in a Large Skip in Hitchin?

Large skips hired in Hitchin accept general household waste, garden waste, timber and wood, metal, furniture, carpets and flooring, rubble and soil in moderate quantities, kitchen and bathroom fittings, and packaging materials. Items not accepted include asbestos, tyres, electrical items containing refrigerant, paint and chemicals, medical waste, and plasterboard in mixed loads. Large skips are well suited to bulky items including sofas, mattresses, and white goods that cannot go in smaller skips. If you are unsure whether an item is acceptable, call us before booking.

Do You Need a Permit for a Large Skip in Hitchin?

Due to their size, large skips are less likely to fit on a standard residential driveway and may need to be placed on the public highway. In this case a road permit from Hertfordshire County Council is required at a cost of £51 for up to 14 days, with an additional £27 for each further 7-day period. We can arrange this permit on your behalf at the time of booking. Most permits in the Hitchin area are processed within 5 working days, so please book ahead if you need an on-street large skip.

Kind words from past happy customers

We’re a friendly local business, offering friendly local serice.

“Used Hitchin Skip Hire for a full house clearance before putting our property on the market. The large skip was delivered exactly when promised, positioned perfectly outside the house, and collected within 24 hours of us calling. Faultless service from start to finish and the best price we found in North Hertfordshire.”

— Karen B, Letchworth

We used Hitchin Skip Hire for a full house clearance before moving. They sorted a council road permit for us without being asked, kept us updated on delivery time, and the driver was really helpful positioning it on our narrow street. Couldn’t ask for more.u0022
