Skip Hire in Lincoln: The Complete Guide
Lincoln is a cathedral city set on a steep hill above the River Witham, its skyline dominated by the medieval cathedral and castle and its old streets giving way to Victorian and modern suburbs below. The surrounding area we serve reaches out to the market town of Sleaford, the riverside town of Gainsborough and Market Rasen to the north-east, a spread of historic and rural Lincolnshire that brings a varied stream of skip work.
The city's housing ranges from period property and conservation-area homes near the cathedral to interwar and modern estates lower down and across the outlying towns. Typical projects include sympathetic refurbishment of older houses, kitchen and bathroom replacements and garden clearances. For most household jobs a 4 or 6 yard skip is ample, while an 8 yard skip suits larger clearances and renovation work. Prices start from £70, with the right size confirmed at the time of booking.
On-street skips in the city require a permit, administered by the City of Lincoln Council. We handle the permit application on your behalf as part of every on-road booking, so you are not left dealing with the council yourself. Same-day delivery is available across Lincoln, Sleaford, Gainsborough and Market Rasen when you order before 12pm.
