Green Skips review

Researched for Skip hire in Telford

Unknown

Telford · Service area: Telford, Wellington, Newport, Shifnal, Shrewsbury

Green Skips in short

Green Skips is a family-run Madeley firm hiring out six skip sizes with from-prices stated with VAT, instant online quotes and card payment. The business states twenty years serving Telford and Shrewsbury, owning its skips and employing its drivers. Our verdict is that comparing sizes and booking online in minutes is its draw for anyone happy to book online.

Customer reviews of Green Skips stand at 4.4 stars across forty-three Google ratings. The site reports nine in ten collected loads diverted from landfill at its own recycling facility.

What counts against it is decisive: no carrier registration number is published and none was traced, so a mandatory requirement fails and the firm sits outside the ranked table. No insurance details are published either.

Our verdict

Our judgement: Green Skips suits you if you want to compare sizes and prices online and book in minutes, with a Madeley yard and 20 years behind the name [1] [2]. The gap is paperwork: the site states licensed carriage but publishes no registration number, which fails one of our eligibility requirements [2]. Its 4.4 rating trails the top firms here [3].

Score summary

We researched this provider but have not scored it, because it did not meet one of our eligibility requirements.

G3 · No waste carrier registration number is stated on the website and no register entry was traced to this business; the site states it is a fully licensed carrier [2]. This requirement fails.

Questions about Green Skips

Is Green Skips any good?

For online booking, yes with a caveat: six sized skips with from-prices and card payment suit quick comparisons, backed by 4.4 stars across forty-three Google reviews. The caveat is paperwork: no registration number is published. Ask for the carrier number and check it before booking anything.

Is Green Skips a registered waste carrier?

That can't be sourced. No registration number is stated on the website and no register entry was traced to this business, though the site states it is a fully licensed carrier. This is why the firm sits outside the ranked table. Ask for the number and check it on the register first.

What does Green Skips charge?

Six skip sizes carry from-prices starting at one hundred and twenty pounds plus VAT, with online booking and card payment. Pick your size on the site for an instant figure. Ask what the hire days and any road permit add before you pay anything.

Where does Green Skips work?

The Madeley firm states twenty years serving Telford, Shrewsbury and the wider area, with a fifty-one-area service list on its site. Send your postcode through the quote route to confirm you are covered before you set dates or pick a size.

How is Green Skips ranked?

It was researched but not assessed in our September round, because no carrier registration number could be traced to it. Strong online booking and list prices count for nothing without that paperwork. The firm can send its number through the Claim a listing route to join the next round.
