What Affects the Cost?

Skip hire costs in Lurgan are influenced by skip size (measured in cubic yards), hire duration (typically 7–14 days), waste type (general, inert, or hazardous), and location within the town and surrounding areas. Distance from the hire company's depot, local landfill fees, and seasonal demand also affect pricing. Additional charges may apply for permit requirements, overfilled skips, or prohibited items such as asbestos or electrical waste. Obtaining multiple quotes ensures competitive pricing and transparent terms.

Money-Saving Tips

Book skip hire in advance to secure better rates and availability. Segregate waste types to avoid hazardous surcharges on standard loads. Choose the smallest suitable skip size for your project—oversizing wastes money. Many Lurgan firms offer multi-skip discounts for larger projects, so negotiate if planning multiple hires.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in the skip hire price?

The quoted price typically covers skip delivery, collection, and standard landfill fees for general waste. Delivery and collection are usually completed within 24–48 hours. However, permit fees (required if the skip is placed on a public road in Lurgan), hazardous waste charges, and overfill penalties are usually extra. Always confirm inclusions when obtaining a quote.

How long can I keep a skip for?

Standard hire periods in Lurgan are 7 to 14 days. Weekly extensions typically cost £30–£60 per week. If you need the skip longer, negotiating a fixed rate for a month may be more economical than paying weekly extensions. Confirm the exact collection date when booking to avoid unexpected extension charges.

What waste types can go in a skip?

General skips accept household waste, garden waste, rubble, wood, and plasterboard. Hazardous items (asbestos, electrical appliances, batteries, chemicals) require separate disposal and incur surcharges of £25–£75. Many Lurgan hire firms offer specialist skips for inert waste (soil, brick, concrete) at no extra cost. Always declare prohibited items when booking to avoid rejection.

Do I need a permit to place a skip on the street in Lurgan?

Yes. Placing a skip on public roads or pavements in Lurgan requires a Street Occupancy Permit from Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council, which typically costs £5–£15 per week. Many skip hire firms arrange this on your behalf for a small administrative fee (usually £10–£20). Confirm whether your quote includes permit costs or if they're charged separately.
