Reasonable price. Website easy to use but still like talking to a human. Got one for the day I wanted and pick up date gives us plenty of time to fill it.

Delivery of skip and collection
Arrived late afternoon and thought it would come sooner. Explains why the 7 days didn't include the first day.
Picked up on the agreed date. No problems with delivery or collection. Would recommend them, no problems at all.

I used Fast Skips to hire a skip for one week to aid a bathroom refit and I had 0 issues. I must admit, I was a bit worried when I read some of the negative reviews, however, it was an extremely smooth process. I ordered my skip to arrive on a Friday about 3 weeks in advance of the needed date. I recieved a text to say it had been successfully booked and it arrived on the day i requested, at about 1/2ish. I had booked it for 7 days which took me to the following Monday and it was taken away about lunchtime. Great experience, would use them again if I need another skip.

Very easy to order online, the price was reasonable, and the skip arrived on the date arranged. The driver helpfully placed it where I asked so it was easy to fill. The arrangement was for the hire to be for one week so I was expecting it to be collected seven days after delivery. Twelve days later it is still on my drive. However, this was quickly resolved with a couple of phone calls. Otherwise, I was very happy with the service and would use Fast Skips again.

Great service, delivered when they said they would and used the wood I'd left out to protect the drive(not sure if it was needed).
Collected promptly when I'd informed them it was full. Would definitely use again as a good price and a reliable quality service.

I was cleaning out my Dad's old house and wanted to recycle as much as possible. I was happy with the price I paid, really happy with the service provided (including when I wanted to make changes). Overall: excellent service at a price I was happy to pay.
