SK Skips review

Researched for Skip hire in Telford

Active

Trading as SK SKIPS LTD · Shifnal · Service area: Shifnal, Telford

SK Skips in short

SK Skips is a Shifnal yard at Lamledge Lane offering domestic and commercial skips in different shapes and sizes, open Monday to Saturday. The company record is checkable, with SK SKIPS LTD active since 2019 and waste collection as its stated trade. Our verdict is that phone-booked hires from a real yard are its whole offer, with nothing to compare online first. The yard sits at Unit twenty-six on the Lamledge Lane industrial estate, on the same stretch as the other Shifnal firms in this round.

With no website, the phone line is the whole front door: opening hours run Monday to Saturday, eight in the morning to five. Domestic and commercial hires both sit in the stated offer, in different shapes and sizes. All of that must be settled by phone, since nothing is published to read first.

Customer reviews of SK Skips stand at 2.5 stars across six Google ratings, the weakest base in this round. There is no website, so services, prices and paperwork can only be checked by phone. Six reviews make a small base anywhere, and the weakest headline among the firms outside the ranked table makes this one harder to read kindly. Every held review sits on Google alone, with no second platform in the record. In our opinion, the company record steadies the picture while the reviews drag it.

What counts against it is decisive: no carrier registration was traced to this business, so a mandatory requirement fails and the firm sits outside the ranked table.

Our verdict

Our judgement: SK Skips suits you if you want a phone-booked hire from a Shifnal yard backed by a limited company since 2019 [1] [3]. It counts against it that there is no website to check and no registration traced to the business, which fails one of our eligibility requirements, and its six Google reviews sit at 2.5 [1] [2].

Limitations

Questions about SK Skips

Is SK Skips any good?

The record says caution: 2.5 stars across six Google reviews is the weakest base in this round, and with no website everything must be checked by phone. The yard itself is real with a limited company behind it active since twenty nineteen. Ring the firm, ask for the carrier number, and check it before booking anything.

Is SK Skips a registered waste carrier?

That can't be sourced. No registration number is published anywhere checked and no register entry was traced to this business. This is why the firm sits outside the ranked table. Ask for the number by phone and check it on the register first. Company history is checkable at Companies House; carrier registration is a separate public register.

What does SK Skips charge?

With no website, no prices, rates or VAT position are published anywhere checked. Ring the yard with your skip size, waste type and dates, and ask for a fixed figure. Confirm whether VAT and any road permit sit inside the price before you agree anything. With no site to browse, that phone quote is the entire price picture.

Where does SK Skips work?

The yard sits at Unit 26 Lamledge Lane in Shifnal, open Monday to Saturday, eight in the morning to five. Domestic and commercial hires both sit in its offer. Ring with your postcode to confirm you are covered before you set dates. The named patch covers Shifnal and Telford together.

How is SK Skips ranked?

It was researched but not assessed in our September round, because no carrier registration could be traced to it. Its yard and company record 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 SK Skips?

Ring the yard on the listed phone line, since there is no website, no email route and no online form. Give the skip size, the waste type, the postcode and the dates, plus where the skip will sit. Ask for a fixed figure covering delivery, collection, hire length and VAT, and write down what is agreed with the date, since nothing arrives in writing first.

What do customers say about SK Skips?

Held reviews stand at two point five stars across six Google ratings, the weakest headline among the firms outside this round's ranked table. Every held review sits on Google alone, with no second platform in the record. In our opinion, that combination reads as a warning light rather than a write-off: read each review in full and settle everything else by phone before deciding.

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

The seven ranked firms all hold checkable carrier registrations, which this business does not show, and that paperwork is the whole difference in status. Nothing else about the offer compares directly: no ranked firm is phone-only with no published detail. Against the other firms outside the table, this yard lacks the price lists or booking routes some of them put online.
