Rugby residents use our skips for various needs. Garden clearances are common in spring, while home renovations keep us busy year-round. The rainy weather in Rugby sometimes delays collections, but we try to work around this where possible.

Why choose What Skip?
What Skip? has worked in Warwickshire for several years. Our drivers know Rugby well, including the tricky access at Railway Terrace units.
The skip hire process: we deliver, you fill it to the line, then ring us for collection. The M6 roadworks sometimes delay our vehicles during morning runs. Our lorries can't always park directly outside properties on Bilton Road due to parked cars, so we sometimes need to find alternative spots.

Commercial Skip Hire in Rugby
For businesses in Rugby, we offer skips of different sizes with proper waste management licences. We handle the council permits for public placements, which typically take 2-3 working days to process through the local authority.
Office spaces in Rugby town centre often need skips for clearing old furniture. Construction sites at the new development near Coton Park use our larger skips. The Somers Road traders sometimes share skips to reduce costs, which works well for smaller businesses.
Skip Hire Rugby Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit for skip hire in Rugby?
You need a permit for skips placed on roads or pavements in Rugby. No permit is needed for skips on private property. We sort out the permits with Rugby Borough Council, which takes about 2-3 days. The permit cost is added to your quote. Town centre permits can be trickier due to parking restrictions. If you need a road placement, book at least 3 days ahead.
What waste items aren't allowed in Rugby skips?
Some things can't go in our skips: asbestos, batteries, electrical items, fridges, gas bottles, liquids, oil, paint, plasterboard and tyres. Most normal household and building waste is fine. We sometimes find Rugby customers try to dispose of old electronics in their skips - these need separate collection. Check with us first if you're not sure about something.
What size skip suits different jobs in Rugby?
A 4-yard skip works for garden clearance or single room clear-outs. Most Rugby customers choose 8-yard skips for house renovations as they fit on driveways without taking up too much space. Builders working on the new estates near Houlton often use 10-12 yard skips. The smallest 2-yard skip is handy for narrow properties in places like Dunchurch where access is tight.
How long can I keep a skip and what happens for collection?
Skips are normally hired for 7 days in Rugby. You can keep it longer if needed, but there's an extra daily charge. Fill the skip level, not above the sides. Call us when it's ready for collection and we'll usually pick it up within 1-2 days. Collections sometimes get delayed when the ground is waterlogged after heavy rain - happens a few times each winter.
Can you deliver to awkward spots in Rugby?
We deliver to most places in Rugby including tight spots. The narrow roads in Dunchurch village can be tricky, so we sometimes use smaller vehicles there. For properties near the canal, access is limited and we might need to use a smaller skip. Monday deliveries are busiest after weekend clear-outs. The roadworks on Leicester Road can cause delays getting to the industrial estate. Let us know about any access problems when you book.
