Confirm Waste Type Acceptance
Make sure the company can handle your specific waste type. Some materials like asbestos, tyres, or electrical items require specialist disposal.
Ask About Delivery Times And Permits
Check if they offer same-day or next-day delivery. If you need a skip on the road, ask whether they handle Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council permit applications on your behalf.
Check Recycling Practices
