What Can Go in Mixed Heavy Skips

Our mixed heavy skips can hold all types of waste you can place in the general waste skips with the addition of concrete, bricks, tiles and synthetic turf. If you use this type of skip bin, you can rest assured that your unwanted rubbish will be removed and disposed of properly.

Concrete/bricks/tiles

Concrete/bricks/tiles are some of the most commonly used materials in the construction industry. If you have broken concrete, bricks, or tiles you're looking to get rid of, use our mixed heavy skips, as long as these waste materials do not contain asbestos. Your other option is to crush them into rubble or repurpose them to create planting areas in your garden instead of just throwing them away anywhere. Doing so will also help the environment by reducing the amount of waste that goes to landfill.

Synthetic turf

Synthetic turf doesn't classify as green waste as it is made of synthetic fibers that make it look like natural grass. It can last a couple of years, but if you have old or damaged artificial turf at home or in your office that you want to get rid of, it can go with other waste in our mixed heavy skips.

Household waste

Household waste, also called domestic waste or residential waste, is generated in the day-to-day operations of a household. This type of waste, which includes clothes, kitchenware, paper or cards, toys, plastic and rags, can also go in the mixed heavy skips.

Light building & construction waste

Light building & construction waste is produced by an industrial process or domestic and commercial renovations. Other than concrete/bricks/tiles, the list of waste can include timber and wood or your kitchen and bathroom cabinetry.

Green waste

Green waste is garden waste that can be composted. This type of waste can include leaves, flowers, yard clippings, and even small quantities of vegetables and fruits. If you think the green waste piled up in your yard can fill up an entire skip, you can use our green waste skips instead.

Furniture & appliances

Furniture & appliances are different home and office items, depending on what you want to dispose of. Unwanted furniture and appliances can include discarded couches, tables, chairs, and white goods such as TVs, refrigerators and water heaters.

Metal/steel waste

Metal/steel waste is also called home scrap. This can include unwanted metals, such as window frames, pipes, wires, cables, bicycle frames, and roof sheeting, among other things. Both ferrous and non-ferrous types can be disposed of in our heavy mixed skips.

What Can’t Go in Mixed Heavy Skips

Mixed heavy skips are a mixture of general waste skips, hard fill skips and green waste skips. While you may consider mixed heavy skips as our most versatile yet, they can only hold certain types of waste, as enumerated above. This means some unused and unwanted rubbish can't go in these skips. To know the rules when disposing of your waste materials in mixed heavy skips, check out the list below:

No soil/dirt
No liquid waste
No food waste
No asbestos
