On Time Skips review

Researched for Skip hire in Telford

Shifnal · Service area: Telford

On Time Skips in short

On Time Skips is a Shifnal firm hiring out two-yard to twelve-yard skips for domestic and commercial jobs, with same or next-day delivery and on-road permits arranged. It describes its own staffed recycling facility behind the service and takes bookings round the clock. Our verdict is that wide sizes with fast booking are its draw. The stated range covers small domestic drops to large commercial loads, with on-road permits arranged where the skip must sit on the street.

The firm works from its Shifnal base across the Telford area, with same or next-day delivery on the offer and bookings taken round the clock. Domestic and commercial drops both sit in its stated offer. Enquiries run through the booking route on its site with the listed phone line alongside it.

Customer reviews of On Time Skips stand at 3.0 stars across six Google ratings. That is a thin and middling base next to the ranked yards, and no prices or insurance details are published. That base is thin by any measure, and every held review sits on Google alone. In our opinion, middling marks on a handful of reviews say little either way about the current service.

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.

Our verdict

Our judgement: On Time Skips suits you if you want a Shifnal yard with a wide size range and round-the-clock booking, describing its own recycling facility behind the service [1]. It counts against it that no registration number is published, which fails one of our eligibility requirements, and its six Google reviews sit at 3.0 [1] [2].

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 describes compliance systems but publishes no number [1]. This requirement fails.

Industry qualifications

Can't be sourced. We looked at the issuing registers, the business's own website and platforms such as Checkatrade and Which? Trusted Traders and found no scheme membership or registration to record.

Strengths

  • Two-yard to 12-yard skips are set out for domestic and commercial jobs with same or next-day delivery and on-road permits arranged [1].

  • The firm describes its own manual recycling facility in Shifnal with trained staff and a computerised waste system, and takes bookings 24 hours a day [1].

Limitations

  • No carrier registration number is published, so the mandatory-registration requirement fails [1].

  • Google sits at 3.0 from six reviews, seen 4 September 2026, with no prices or insurance details published [1] [2].

Questions about On Time Skips

Is On Time Skips any good?

For range and speed, possibly: two-yard to twelve-yard skips with same or next-day delivery and round-the-clock booking suit urgent jobs. The record is thin at 3.0 stars across six Google reviews, and no registration is published. Ask for the carrier number and check it before booking anything. The wide size range is the draw; the thin review base is the doubt.

Is On Time 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 describes compliance systems. This is why the firm sits outside the ranked table. Ask for the number and check it on the register first. The site describes compliance systems but publishes no number to check.

What does On Time Skips charge?

It publishes no prices, rates or VAT terms on the pages checked. Send the skip size, your waste type and your dates through the booking route, and ask for a fixed written figure. Confirm whether VAT and any road permit sit inside the price before you agree anything. Same-day or next-day timing can be agreed in the same exchange.

Where does On Time Skips work?

The firm works from its Shifnal base across the Telford area, delivering same or next day. Domestic and commercial drops both sit in its offer. Send your postcode with the enquiry to confirm you are covered before you set dates or request a timed delivery. Same-day or next-day delivery is the stated offer across that patch.

How is On Time Skips ranked?

It was researched but not assessed in our September round, because no carrier registration number could be traced to it. Its size range and booking hours count for nothing without that paperwork. The firm can send its number through the Claim a listing route to join the next round. That paperwork gap is the whole reason it sits out.

How do I get a quote from On Time Skips?

Use the round-the-clock booking route on the firm's site, sending your skip size, waste type, postcode and dates. Ask for a fixed written figure covering delivery, collection, hire length and VAT, plus who arranges any road permit. Since no prices sit on the site, that written figure is the whole price picture: confirm it before agreeing a delivery slot.

What do customers say about On Time Skips?

Held reviews stand at three stars across six Google ratings, a thin and middling base next to the ranked yards. Every held review sits on Google alone, with no second platform in the record. In our opinion, six reviews say little on their own: read each one in full rather than leaning on the headline figure.

How does On Time Skips compare with the ranked firms in this round?

The seven ranked firms all hold checkable carrier registrations, which this firm does not show, and that paperwork is the whole difference in status. Its size range runs from small domestic sizes to large commercial ones, which covers the same jobs the ranked yards serve. Round-the-clock booking with fast delivery is its real edge on convenience. Against that, its review base is thin beside the deep bases at the top of the ranked table, and it publishes no prices.
