JP Skips in short
JP Skips is a family-run firm from Childs Ercall offering two, four and six-yard skips for short or long-term hire, with one to two-week hire terms and payment on delivery. Registration CBDU503196 lists its operator as an upper-tier carrier, broker and dealer on the public register. Our verdict is that small domestic loads north of Telford are its natural jobs. The firm works from Childs Ercall, covering Market Drayton, Newport and Telford within its stated delivery radius [1]. Contact is direct, with a phone number, an email address and Saturday opening on the site.
Customer reviews of JP Skips stand at 4.6 stars across eleven Google ratings. Contact is direct, with a phone number, an email address and Saturday opening inside a twenty-mile delivery radius.
The customer evidence is a small positive base: 4.6 stars across eleven Google ratings [3], all on Google alone. That sketches a direction rather than a settled record, in our opinion, with direct contact doing the reassuring meanwhile. Payment on delivery is a practical plus beside that thin record.
What counts against it: prices come by phone, email or message only with none published, and trading history and insurance details sit outside the assessment, leaving the quote to do the talking. None of that reflects the hires themselves, in our opinion, but it leaves the phone quote doing the heavy lifting on price.
Our verdict
Our judgement: JP Skips suits you if you want a family-run firm for a small domestic or commercial hire north of Telford, with clear hire periods and direct contact routes [1]. It holds 4.6 from 11 Google reviews with an upper-tier registration behind it [2] [3]. Published prices, trading history and insurance details are the gaps.
