Skips & RoRos

Skips
Available on a contract or on a call off basis, our enclosed, open and lockable skips range from 8 – 12 yards3, and are a great way for dealing with bulky waste items

Roll on roll off containers
Ranging from 20 – 40 yards3, these high capacity containers are ideal for retail, industrial, manufacturing, and construction operations where high volumes or bulky and heavy non compactable waste is generated
Skips
Our waste skips are perfect for bulky and large volumes of waste. We also offer fully enclosed skips for extra security.
Whether you need a one-off skip or a regular skip service we can help
Our recycling focus means we will sort through the items you place in your skip and reuse or recycle as much of it as possible to minimise the environmental impact of your waste.
If you’re wondering what type of items you can and can’t place into a skip our simple guide below can help, but if you’re still not sure our helpful team can give you additional support.

RoRos
Our roll-on roll-off (RoRo) containers provide a cost effective, environmentally friendly solution for large quantities of heavy or bulk waste.
Fresh Start are one of the North West’s leading providers of roll-on roll-off containers. We supply businesses who expect to generate amounts of waste that regular skips just won’t be able to handle.
Our robust RoRos can be hired either on a contract or a one-off basis
They are the perfect waste storage solution for a huge range of demanding industries, including:
- Heavy Retail
- Manufacturing
- Other Industrial
- House & Site Clearances
- Shop Fitting

Each container is easy to load
With our clear collection schedules, you’ll know exactly when it is due to be delivered to, and removed from, your premises.
Not every type of material is suitable for disposal in a roll-on roll-off container, though. Hazardous waste must be in an enclosed space, for instance, while we also have dedicated receptacles for food waste and glass recycling. If your rubbish is compactable, then one of the latest compactors or balers may suit your needs better.
