8 yd skip
Ordered the skip for am delivery turned up at 3pm. I also needed a door on the skip as I'm elderly and needed to be able to walk in with things to start with not lift them over the top. I did order a skip with a door for this reason. Very disappointed.

Disgraceful, rude and flippant company
This company is not here to look after the small struggling companies.
We had 3 bins off them, I had to cut it down to just 1 for financial reasons and they have now charged me over 270 pounds to remove the 2 bins even though i still have 1 bin with them.
I've even said when business picks up I may be able to habe the bins back.
Emails ive received off certain staff have been extremely rude and flippant.
I would certainly not recommend them to any one.
I hope the MD reads this and understand he has some extremely rude and unhelpful staff adjust know even the drivers agree the one of them, he agrees with me.
