Domestic Skip Hire in Lincoln

If you’re cleaning out your home with a deep spring clean and want to throw out lots of unwanted items, a small skip is the way to go so you don’t spend time and energy on multiple tip runs. If you’re undertaking garden clearance or a landscaping project which involves breaking up and disposing of turf, rotten wood, bushes, bricks, and chunks of concrete, then having a skip on your property makes the project go much easier.

Tradespeople will be able to easily complete your kitchen or bathroom renovation when there’s a skip sitting on your drive ready and waiting to receive the debris created.

What our customers are saying

Kim Bishop - Stamford

We hired a skip at short notice, the customer service was amazing from Tara. She went out of her way to find what we needed, and went over and above what we could have expected!

Gillian Patterson - Leeds

I was looking for a company to hire a skip from. I went through Google and phoned half a dozen companies. It wasn’t just about price, but availability too. On top of which I got a second week which really helped ,as both my husband and myself are disabled and was clearing out some cupboards and renovating some rooms. The lady I spoke to was helpful and spoke very nicely. It’s definitely a company I would use again and have already recommended.

Colin Pogson - Peterborough

Called TWBC as I was struggling to get the skip I wanted when I needed it from my usual supplier. They were great, sorted what I wanted for when I needed it and it was even a slightly better price than my usual supplier. Nice friendly people on the phone who confirmed everything and answered any questions. Will start to call them first in the future. Very happy customer.

Skip Hire Lincoln Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for skip hire in Lincoln?

If you're placing a skip on your driveway or garden, no permit is needed. For skips on public roads or pavements, you'll need a permit from Lincoln City Council. We sort out these permits for you. The council usually takes 2-3 working days to process applications. Remember that permits have set time limits, especially on busy roads near Lincoln Cathedral or the High Street area. During the Lincoln Christmas Market, extra restrictions often apply for skips in the city centre.

What waste can't go in Lincoln skips?

Some items aren't allowed in skips due to disposal regulations. Don't put asbestos, chemicals, paint tins, batteries, gas bottles, tyres, fridges, freezers or liquids in your skip. The local waste transfer station on Whisby Road has specific handling requirements for these materials. For plasterboard, you'll need a separate skip as Lincoln recycling centres now process this differently from general waste. If you're clearing properties in areas like Nettleham or Saxilby and have questionable items, ring us first.

Which skip size suits your Lincoln project?

Skip needs vary based on job size and location. A 2-yard skip holds about 30 bin bags for small clearouts in terraced houses near Bailgate. For garden work in North Hykeham, consider a 4-yard skip that fits on standard driveways. Kitchen refits typically need 6-yard skips, while full house renovations in Bracebridge Heath or Washingborough properties often require 8-yard models. The narrow streets around Lincoln's West Common sometimes limit skip size options. Tell us your waste amount and access conditions, and we'll match you with the right skip.

How long can you keep a skip in Lincoln?

The standard hire period is 14 days. Some customers in Birchwood only need weekend hire, while building sites in Skellingthorpe sometimes keep skips for several weeks. Let us know your timeframe when booking. For skips on Lincoln's residential streets, permit durations affect how long the skip can stay. Fill skips level with the sides - overfilled skips can't be collected as they breach transport rules. The wagon needs 4 metres of clearance above the skip, which can be tricky in areas with low-hanging trees like parts of Boultham Moor.

Do you deliver to all Lincoln areas?

We cover all Lincoln postcodes and surrounding villages. Our drivers know the tight access routes around the Brayford Pool and historic Bailgate area. We deliver to newer developments like Greetwell Fields and established areas such as Birchwood and North Hykeham. Some locations have access issues - the narrow lanes in Branston village can be awkward for larger skip vehicles, and parts of Waddington have weight restrictions after recent roadworks. Morning deliveries often work better for business areas on Doddington Road industrial estate, while residential drops in Washingborough typically happen between 10 am and 2 pm.
