Comprehensive Skip Hire Services Across Diss
We offer 2 yard skip hire for household waste up to 16 and 20 yard skips for larger projects. Each skip size accommodates different amounts of waste. If you're not sure what size you need, give us a call for advice.
We deliver to Diss and nearby villages including Roydon, Scole, Palgrave, Eye, Hoxne, Stuston, and Bressingham. Our lorries travel along the A1066 and A140 daily, making deliveries to both town and rural locations.
Domestic Skip Hire in Diss
Our skip hire service for homeowners is straightforward. We deliver the skip you've chosen to your address. If you're putting it on your driveway, check you have enough space - a 4-yard skip needs about 3 metres clearance. For skips on public roads, we sort out the permits with South Norfolk Council.
Diss residents use our skips for clearing garden waste, getting rid of old furniture, and disposing of materials from DIY projects. A typical household renovation creates more waste than people expect, so we help customers choose appropriate sizes.

Skip Hire Diss Frequently Asked Questions
What waste types can't go in skips in Diss?
Some materials aren't allowed in our skips due to regulations. These include asbestos, batteries, medical waste, electrical items, fluorescent tubes, hazardous materials, gas bottles, oil, paint, tyres and plasterboard. South Norfolk Council checks waste disposal, and putting the wrong items in skips can lead to fines. If you're not sure about something, ring us before you put it in the skip. We can tell you about the local recycling centre on Vinces Road for items we can't take.
How high can I fill my skip?
Fill your skip up to the level line marked inside it, not above. Overfilled skips can't be transported on roads as they're unsafe and don't meet transport regulations. Our 8-yard skip gives a bit more height for bulky waste while still fitting on most Diss driveways. Sometimes skips fill up quicker than people think, especially with garden waste from properties in Roydon or Scole. Just ring us if you need a second skip or an exchange.
Do I need to be there when the skip arrives?
You don't have to be there for delivery or collection if we can access the spot where you want it. That said, it helps if someone shows us where to put it, particularly in the older parts of Diss where streets are narrow. Our lorry needs about 8.5 metres by 2.5 metres of space to manoeuvre, which can be tight on Denmark Street. If you won't be there, let us know when you book and tell us where to put the skip.
How far ahead should I book a skip?
For most weeks, booking 2-3 days ahead is enough. In April and May, when people start garden projects, it gets busier so 4-5 days notice works better. The Diss area gets particularly busy with skip bookings after bank holidays. We sometimes have skips available for next-day delivery, depending on what we have in the yard and driver schedules. The permit from South Norfolk Council takes a day or two to arrange as well.
What happens to the waste from Diss skips?
About 75% of waste from our Diss skips gets recycled. We sort materials at our transfer station - things like metal, wood, cardboard, some plastics, soil and rubble. The building waste from sites near Mission Road goes through separate sorting to recover usable materials. The rest goes to a waste facility near Norwich. This process means less waste in landfill sites and keeps costs reasonable for skip hire around Diss and Palgrave.
