What can I put in the skip - mixed lightweight or inert waste?
Please remember that we can’t accept POP items in our skips (mattresses, sofas, sofa beds, armchairs, beanbags, sofa cushions, etc).
Skips are for general waste (mixed lightweight) and 'inert' waste (heavy) only.
Mixed Lightweight Waste includes garden clearance waste and household clearance waste whilst Inert Heavy Waste includes industrial building materials.
