Skip Hire in Leicester
Skip hire across Leicester and East Midlands, from 4-yard midi skips for small strip-outs to 40-yard roll-on/roll-off containers for volume construction waste. We arrange highway permits where the skip has to sit on the road, and everything goes to a licensed transfer station with a waste transfer note.
Leicester site conditions we plan around
Leicestershire's local granite is a defining material — Atlas combines it with civils-grade Type 1, 6F5 capping and drainage bedding for the warehousing, distribution and residential pipeline driving the regional economy.
Lead times & access
Tipper and grab loads available across Leicestershire within 24–72 hours. Direct quarry haulage from Charnwood and Mountsorrel keeps loads efficient on bulk granite orders, with grab collections timed for two-way running.

Skip hire in Leicester — FAQs
Do I need a permit for a skip in Leicester?
If the skip stands on a public road or verge in Leicester you need a highway permit from the local authority. We apply for it on your behalf — allow a few working days. On private ground or a driveway no permit is needed.
What can't go in a skip?
No asbestos, gas cylinders, tyres, batteries, liquids, paint, fridges or other hazardous items. Tell us if any are present and we'll arrange a compliant separate route.
Should I use a skip or a grab for soil and hardcore?
For soil, muck and hardcore in any quantity a grab or tipper usually moves more material per movement than skips. Skips suit mixed construction and strip-out waste.
How quickly can a skip be delivered in Leicester?
Usually within 24–48 hours across Leicester on private-ground drops. Add a few days where a highway permit has to be issued first.
