Lerwick service depends on verified local container stock and a workable waste route. Mainland prices and delivery times are not used as an island promise.
Typical local work includes property clearances, commercial refits, rural work and renovations. A 4 yard skip can suit a compact project, while a 6 yard builders skip or 8 yard skip gives larger renovations more room.
Weight matters as much as volume. Soil, stone, brick and concrete can make a large skip unsafe before it looks full; read the skip weight-limit guide before planning a dense load.
Watch for island stock limits, sea freight, harbour traffic, exposed weather and remote roads. The final position also needs a level, strong surface and a clear collection route.
